Guest Reviews
- Elise (10/5): Perfect location and view - The view on the rooftop balcony is phenomenal. We sat out listening to the music in the square every night. We stayed in the top floor apartment with private balcony and the door to the balcony was in the master bedroom. Note the balcony is not actually private, it’s the rooftop terrace shared with other guests but you have a door directly to it and a reserved table and chairs. Most nights, we were the only ones there though. The AC was wonderful and welcomed after our other stays did not have great working AC’s. Even in May we used it nightly. There was also a lift to the fifth floor but please note you must then take a few stairs to the actual room. Two bedrooms and actual normal adult sized beds. The shower was touch small but we really had no problems with it. Downstairs door was tricky but the receptionist was super friendly and helpful. Microwave was appreciated.
- Carrie (10/5): We loved being here! - We were located right in the middle of everything and the views from the terrace were really incredible. The facilities were clean and very nice. The two bedrooms were both comfortable.
- Chris (8/5): Stunning view, right in the centre of the main sights, comfy and spacious appartment. - The property is sold on the location and it delivers - the view of the Duomo is stunning both night and day. Having a Chianti with the view in the background is why we booked. Everything was as I expected - perhaps some small things like extra coffee pods (I'm sure I could have asked for more if I really needed them) and hair conditioner. But it was as expected.
- Justine (8/5): A Room With A View - Fabulous location with a knock out view of the Duomo. Afternoon drinks on the terrace with murmuring starlings overhead were a special treat. Having a lift in the building was a bonus. Exclusive use of the terrace was a little misleading as the section of terrace with the view of the Duomo is a shared space. The apartment is smaller than it appears in the photos. The living space in particular is quite tight - the couch is for two. No laundry facilities.
- chloe (9/5): Lovely apartment with amazing views and great location - Amazing views from the terrace. Lovely cosy apartment. Brilliant location. All perfect. Nothing!

- MICHEL (9/5): Sky View - L'accueil et la simplicité pour la remise des clés. La vue terrasse partagée avec les tables pour chaque location ! Rien de bien important !
- Martha (10/5): Very nice! - Location was very central and even though it was at a busy area, there was no noise that could be heard inside.
- Sonnie (10/5): Une journée magique à Florence! - La terrasse, la vue, le personnel attentif et tellement agréable
- Katie (10/5): Exceptional -

Nothing better in Florence

- Mariam (10/5): Exceptional - Apartment was so cozy and reception was so gentle he help us with our bags and location is near to attractions places and the place was secure outside 🙏🏻 thank you If you are taking the apartment in the rooftop, there is only stairs so you will need help with your bags
- Sally (9/5): Superb - Amazing views! Loved being so close to the Duomo.
- Sumaya (10/5): Its 5 star apartment, best apartment i ever seen and stay , recommend everyone to stay on this apartment - View, service, friendly Daniel who meet us , cleaning, location , actually everything was amazing Nothing
- Yean (2/5): Overall, while the location and view were appealing, the inadequate service and cleanliness issues overshadowed these po - The view of the apartment. Staff Service: The most disappointing aspect of my stay was the lack of assistance from the staff. Upon arrival, I was promised help with my luggage, but when I requested assistance, the staff member at the reception refused to help and remained seated, offering no support whatsoever. This lack of professionalism left a sour impression on my stay.
Apartment Amenities: The apartment itself had a great view, but it was on the 5th floor with no elevator access, which made carrying luggage a hassle. Additionally, the coffee machine was unhygienic and not properly maintained. I was also disappointed that the promised coffee and water never arrived during my stay.
- Margaret (10/5): Perfect in every way! - Absolutely everything! The location was amazing, so close to everything. The rooftop patio was incredible. The views are unbelievable. The staff is so friendly and helpful. Our apartment was newly renovated, well appointed and super clean and quiet! No road or traffic noise. I would stay here again in a heartbeat. There was nothing not to like.
- Ashleigh (10/5): Exceptional - Absolutely breathtaking views and the apartment was great, modern clean and had everything we needed. Location was fantastic. Nothing
- Steven (3/5): Conveniently located within the Duomo area but the service wasn’t matching with our expecting. - Location is great! The host was not spontaneous and helpful. They failed to ensure that all facilities are in good condition. Our sofa was faulty and my son had to squeeze into his sister’s bed.
- Shanthi (8/5): Good location - Location was great
Place clean
Staff good. The heater keep going off
Shower n soap could be added more as there 3 of us.
Same goes for coffee - only 3 capsules
- Anna (10/5): Amazing apartment my family really enjoyed staying there. Beautifully decorated, comfortable and super central location. - Everything Everything was perfect
- Angela (9/5): Superb -
- Ankit (10/5): Exceptional - Everything is perfect Bathroom was way too tiny . And bit smelly but bearable keeping the location and terrace in mind .
- Suyoung (8/5): Very good - Location is so perfect to cover all I have to pay to get another set of towels
- Johanna (10/5): Apartment with a View!! - This property had amazing views from the balcony over the Duomo. In addition, the self-contained apartment had everything we needed for the stay. There are a few stairs from the elevator to reach the apartment, but it was doable, and the reward of the views made it all worth it. Beds are comfy. Good quality linen. The apartment is within easy walking distance to all the major sites as well as restaurants. So glad that we booked! It was all great.
- Matthew (10/5): Exceptional -
- Brenda (8/5): great location, good communication, loved our stay in Florence. Thank you - The outside terrace and view was amazing. Location was great and easy to walk to from the train station with luggage in tow. Elevator was a little scary for us but it ended up working fine.
- Alexander (10/5): Outstanding and I am recommending it to friends - The service was outstanding.
Great communication before trip.
Very helpful by letting us arrive a few minutes past their lunch break, which helped us!
Booked and doubled checked by call for our 4 am cab to airport! Location, top floor and roof access
- Casey (10/5): Exceptional - The location is under sold online. The corner of the balcony is on the main square.
- Shannon (10/5): Exceptional - An amazing view overlooking the Duomo.
- Vanessa (10/5): Perfect! - The location, a stone’s throw from the Duomo and having access to a large terrace with amazing views over Florence was certainly the highlights of our stay and made it extra special. There really wasn’t anything.
Perhaps a toaster would be handy but it really wasn’t a problem
- Miriam (9/5): Superb -
- Rita (10/5): Exceptional - location fantastic
appartment very clean comfortable beds
reception desk very helpful high;y receommend nothing
- Stephen (9/5): Superb -
- Scott (10/5): Exceptional - An amazing balcony from which to enjoy the New Year’s Eve fireworks! Loved the elevator.
- Beckygoldsmith (10/5): Exceptional -
- Annette (10/5): Exceptional - Location was perfect. Shared patio was a little loud overnight.
- Okeagu (1/5): Bad - The central location of the apartment and view from the balcony was great. We had no electricity or hot water for several hours. As a result, we missed an excursion which had already been paid for. This greatly disrupted our limited travel schedule. I understand that things happen, however the property manager did not come and assist us, and I felt stranded. We were not compensated for our inconvenience in anyway. Furthermore, when I reached out to bookings.com, they were not helpful at all. I will not be using bookings.com again, this was a terrible experience.
- Annelise (8/5): Overall a great place to stay! - The location is amazing! The apartment seems to have a mosquito issue. I'm not sure if it's due to the time of year we stayed (fall) but I got bitten overnight quite a lot.
- Lewis (9/5): Awesome spot! - Clean, well looked after & an incredible view/ location Mosquitoes
- Brianna (10/5): Most beautiful spot to enjoy a quiet dinner. - Sitting on the terrace, having a quiet dinner and a glass of wine overlooking the Duomo was perfect. Tough to name anything real that we didn’t like. Anything I didn’t like is nitpicking, like the small flush of the toilet didn’t work, or us dummies couldn’t figure out the front door. But it was fabulous.
- Dunn (10/5): Exceptional - Great location The AC didn’t work that great.
- Mary (10/5): Excellent place to make memories - The views are spectacular. Comfortable Nothing
- Anonymous (10/5): Exceptional -
- Danak (9/5): You can't be this location or view if you want the Duomo. - You can't beat this location or view you want a view of the Duomo. Although you share the deck this apartment has its own section.
Staff was helpful and friendly.
Small elevator was very useful for going up 5 flight of stairs. The stair well of the building did not smell good but I'm assuming it's a building issue not the apartment issue.
- Chantal (10/5): Exceptional -
- Katrina (10/5): Perfect for a stay in Florence -
- Michael (7/5): Overall okay - but not private - and mold - Staff was really friendly and helpful - parking service was great (extra charge) - view and location was amazing The „private“ terrace wasn’t privat. Random people were coming up as well - there was even a wedding while we were on it. There was mold in one of the room and in the shower.
- Teri (10/5): Lovely apartment with a spectacular view!! - Just a spectacular view!! The apartment was small but very modern and beautifully decorated and was right in the heart of the square with the Florence Duomo The apartment was self contained but didn’t have anything to wash the dishes with or dry them afterwards, we had to buy sponges and rm teatowels
- Claudia (9/5): Great property and terrace - Florence was underwhelming - The apartment was the best part of Florence. Great place to hide from tourists. It is complicated, we loved the view of the church but once you are on the streets you wished the apartment was somewhere else. Too many tourist like me. I guess it is bad to complains about so many people doing the same thing I am doing but I think after this European trip I am reconsidering what I want to see and what not to see. Historical places are glamorized over Instagram and I think is better to see a documentary about this places and scape to the Tuscan region instead.
- Sung (10/5): Exceptional - The view from the terrace is amazing!!! The staffs are so nice and helpful. The location is just perfect for going to the tourist spots. Will definitely come back again :)
- Joshua (8/5): Great Location & Highly Recommend! - Our family travels a lot and we always prioritize 4 things in this order of preference when it comes to hotels / apartment rentals. 1- Location & Safety, 2- Comfort & Amenities, 3 - Cleanliness, 4 - Staff / Customer Service. This apartment exceeded all of these requirements with good or better ratings.
First, the location was amazing! The apartment is on the top floor of a historical building that overlooks the Duomo with direct access to a MASSIVE outdoor terrace. Yes, the pictures are real and the view is absolutely stunning. One of the biggest highlights of our family's trip to Italy was the view from this apartment. Second, the beds are surprising comfortable! We slept well in this apartment compared to the numerous other cities we stayed at during our journey. Third, although old and quite small, there is a working lift / elevator that will get you and your luggage ALMOST to the front door of the apartment. However, yes, there is one last set of stairs you must walk up, but this is Italy and if you're traveling here you should be capable of navigating at least a few steps one other thing of note related to the final stairs is the staff was SUPER nice and offered SEVERAL TIMES to assist with getting the luggage up the final stairs (although we declined). Lastly, we stayed in July during the height of a heat wave. Outdoor temperatures easily exceeded 37C / 100F and the apartment stayed nice and comfortable the entire time, never getting hotter than about 22C / 72F.
Bottom line is we had a great experience/ stay and would gladly recommend. The only thing we didn't like about the hotel was the lift / elevator. It has nothing to do with the owner, but we noticed because it is vintage that on more than one occasion tenants would not close the doors to the car, causing it to be held at a certain floor until someone would come by and close the doors completely so that it would operate. Again, this is completely outside of the apartment owners control and nothing that we hold against them.
- Stacey (10/5): Kids loved it,we loved it would highly recommend staff really friendly ❤️ - This place is amazing would love to move in ❤️🇮🇹 It is on the 6th floor but old fashioned lift worked better than some modern ones I have used great location and the view is breathtaking 🇮🇹
- Darren (9/5): Overall it was a great stay with a super comfy bed in a fantastic location. - The location was fantastic & the view sensational. Having the shared balcony didn’t allow any privacy from groups at other apartments.
- Persephone (10/5): Exceptional - Amazing view!
The apartment was very nice, clean and comfortable. Excellent location. Nothing.
- Sarah (9/5): Loved our stay. A view to die for! - Stunning view. Lovely decor. Excellent location. Clean. Quite small. Tap water tasted a bit strange. Church bells at 7am!
- Dmitrijs (10/5): Exceptional -
- Stephanie (9/5): Superb -
- Andrea (10/5): Excellent loved it - Amazing view
- Antony (10/5): we loved Florence and the apartment was just superb. - fantastic location with the best panoramic views
Helpful staff and good value. nothing .
- Sandra (9/5): Great location with a helpful friendly host. - The location was amazing, right downtown. The Duomo was really close and the terrace was large. I will always remember the sound of the church bells going off regularly. The host was very sweet and helpful.
- Thierry (9/5): Superb - Location was perfect
- Ericka (10/5): Exceptional - Fantastic location with the most amazing view of the Duomo! Apartment was beautiful, comfortable and clean. There is access to the roof terrace through the main bedroom where you can sit and enjoy the view. I would definitely stay here again.
- Kathleen (10/5): Exceptional - Amazing view and location! everything was very clean and the bed was really comfy! Nothing
- Michaela (10/5): Exceptional -
- Cassie (9/5): lovely staff and the complimentary bottle of wine to enjoy on the rooftop was just amazing! - the view from the rooftop was a highlight and the staff were so lovely and helpful.
- Angela (10/5): fantastic place to stay in Florence - Two good sized beds and very clean. But the best thing is the direct access to the top floor balcony which had a fabulous view over Florence and The Duomo. It really is very special. Also good opening hours of reception where you can leave luggage outside check-in/check-out times. nothing.
- Katrina (10/5): Book it, you won't regret it! - Wonderful location and amazing view from terrace, well equipped kitchen, super friendly reception staff (especially Carol who was so helpful!!), comfortable beds.
Would absolutely recommend, and don't think we want to book anywhere else for our next trip! Could do with a small lamp or side light in smaller bedroom and some anti- bacterial wipes or spray with cleaning products under the sink. Sofa might be a little small if there are 4 people staying in the apartment, but was great for just 2.
- Jonathan (8/5): An enjoyable return visit. I fear it is sinking under the weight of tourists. Everone I came into contact with could not - The central location and the outstanding view. There is an area of terrace reserved for the apartment from which you can access the communal area. The staff were charming and helpful enough to provide a mosquito repellent although on this occasion were unable to resolve the issue of the dishwasher. The dishwasher did not work. The sink overflow leaked. I couldn’t get the coffee machine to work. There was no drying up cloth. There is no toaster. What I found most frustrating was the poor design and layout. There is nowhere in the bathroom to house toiletries and yet vacant wall space for shelving. There is nothing to place baggage on despite having room for a bench in each bedroom. No bedside table in the second bedroom. Plastic
plants cluttering other useful storage space. The table and sofa would work better reversed and the small kitchen area is wastefully designed in its use of restricted space. I didn’t mind the old fashioned lift at all but the final flight of communal stairs were filthy like entering a Medici prison.
- Dena (10/5): The views and city sounds were fantastic from the terrace! - lovely combination of historic and modern and the beds were very comfortable lots of stairs with one small, vintage lift so pack light
- John (10/5): very enjoyable - great location. lovely bedroom. small sofa and no where to use a firestick on the tv.
- Rebecca (10/5): Location location location view view view!! - The location was amazing. Walking distance to just about everything. The terrace is beautiful and the view is one of a kind.
- Sara (10/5): Great location - The staff was great! The stairs going to the apartment
- Andrii (10/5): Exceptional - Really good apartment. There is inside everything for comfortable stay, clean and nice. Amazing view in the terrace. Friendly staff, can help to resolve all issues❤️
Perfect location, you can reach to all famous places in 10-15 minutes on walk.
Recommend for everyone 🙂
- Sebastien (10/5): Spectacular view of historic centre of Florence - The best view of the historic centre of Florence and of course of the Duomo. The apartment came fully equipped and furnished. We had an amazing stay and would definitely book the same apartment for further trips. None
- Guoxiu (10/5): Exceptional -
- Gillian (9/5): beautiful apartment close to Duomo - really special to have access to the terra e with views - amazing views from terrace , comfortable beds, well maintained property overcharged the city tax. had locked one bedroom as we were only 2 people but we each wanted our own bed as traveling with my daughter - they did give us access to the second bedroom once we asked
- Ferron (10/5): Exceptional - Lovely staff. Apartment was amazing. Great value for money. We loved it.
- Ryan (10/5): An amazing stay in such a historic city! - The view doesn’t get better than this. The apartment was comfortable and spacious. You can’t ask for more. Nothing :)
- Patty (5/5): Passable - The view and location were fantastic! The elevator left much to be desired. Probably not appropriate for people with mobility issues especially the steep 16 stairs after the elevator. The apartment comes with nothing just half a roll of toilet paper. Change of towels and linens should be automatic after 2 days.
- Annette (10/5): Exceptional -
