Gorgeous and spacious apartment in such a central spot. Diana made our check in smooth and arranged for us to get our keys as soon as we arrived. The apartment is located on the 2nd floor and there are no elevators but it's an easy climb upstairs. It is extremely close to the subway and right around the corner from many restaurants, shops and a wondeful market that sells leather purses and food. The place was spotless and the kitchen was functional with everything you need. Wish we stayed here longer.

Diana’s place is in a GREAT location and the apartment has all the amenities that you need. Yelena met us a the apartment for a very easy check-in and suggested good places to go. Honestly, you should stay here!

Unforgettable experience. Property is lovely, including an outdoor roof terrace. Bells from Santa Croce added to the charm. Worth a tour!! Thank you Diana for warm welcome and recommendations.

I had high hopes for our stay here, given the location and the pictures, and they were all exceeded. The pictures don't do it justice, this place is spectacular. And being blocks from the duomo is so special. Diana is super helpful and accommodating, and her book of local tips was filled with awesome off-the-grid finds. I can't recommend it enough, STAY HERE if you're coming to Florence!

Awesome spot in a great location. Lots of good local spots within one and two blocks and much less overrun by tourists yet still a very close walk to the bridges into the main center. We recommend L'OV Osteria Vegetariana down the block for great vegetarian food and fantastic ambiance or outdoor seating. Could have stayed here much longer if we had the time.

This apartment was beautiful!!! It was sparkling clean and beautifully decorated. We highly recommend.

Diana was an excellent and charismatic host, providing information about the city. The location is superb, in the relaxed and convenient Santa Croce neighbourhood. The bed is enormous. The size of the flat is impressive. Little touches like the coffee maker were much appreciated. The apartment is cool during the day, and even if it weren’t the air con would have it covered!

Diana’s place was such a wonderful place to land in the city! Super close to the train station, restaurants, shops, and the sights of Florence :) we loved how quiet it was even though you are right in the city, and the bed was so comfortable! Thank you for having us, and maybe we will be back again someday :)

Can't recommend this apartment enough. At check in you are greeted by Diana who is very friendly and will you tips on where to eat, drink and visit during your stay. The apartment is BEAUTIFUL and the location couldn't be more perfect. We had thunder and lightning during our stay but it was the perfect place to curl up and relax. Amazing value for money, we will 100% be staying again. I've already recommended to friends as this is THE place to stay in Florence

After booking, I received a message that we would have to go to another location for the keys. However, it turned out that we were met at the apartment to get the keys and we were shown everything in the apartment. This was great! We liked the location very much. It was quiet and yet very close to the river and Ponte Vecchio. The apartment was light filled, comfortable and very clean. It had everything we needed for a very enjoyable stay. We didn't mind the steep street or the fact that we had to carry our bags up stairs, but it could be an issue for some.

We had a wonderful stay! The apt is exactly as pictured. The staff are super friendly about you dropping your bags until the apt is ready. Very communicative and sweet. They actually made a map of the city with their favorite local restaurants/places to get a cocktail. Very walkable, the Duomo is only a couple minute walk. Wonderful bakery and restaurants right on the street where you’re staying

My friends and I have very much enjoyed staying at Diana's place. The location is superb - very central but not excessively touristy. We found it pretty exciting to stay in a 15th century palazzo, and - most important - to do it comfortably. The place was very spacious, the decor was quirky and interesting and the kitchen was very well equipped; only the bathroom could use some redoing, though it was perfectly adequate. The flat's best feature is the terrace, which boasts a wonderful view and is a perfect spot for breakfast and aperitivo. Last but not least, Diana and her people were great hosts, very responsive and accommodating.
