Guest Reviews
- Barbara (10/5): - Paolo, the host, is very friendly and helpful. The apartment is spacy and very nice, with air conditioning for warmer days, 2 balconies and the location is neat. Outside of the historic center and less busy, with restaurants and daily necessities easily in walking distance. Historic center is easily accessible via bus, bus stops being in walking distance (5 mins). We really enjoyed our stay! Nothing negative to say!

- Kateřina (9/5): Florencie - Velmi pěkně zařízený byt se starožitnostmi, obrazy a drobnostmi, které zútulňovaly bydlení. Plně vybavená kuchyň, spousta úložného prostoru, balkony. Vhodné pro dlouhodobější pobyt, dostupnost nejen centra, ale i okolí výborná. Postele nebyly moc pohodlné, nízko u podlahy a tvrdé matrace. Nepřálo nám počasí a protože staré okna netěsnily a nedalo se přitopit, tak nám byla hrozná zima.
- Andrey (10/5): - Просторные и удобные апартаменты. Недалеко от исторического центра Флоренции - 15 минут на автобусе (2-3 минуты пешком до остановки).
- Georgi (8/5): -
- Zhilu (10/5): What a wonderful find - It's a tastefully decorated apartment in a quiet and convenient residential area just outside the main tourist part. We managed to have some much needed sleep after spending a few days in a very noisy central Rome accommodation.
Communication: Good communication from the host, online, WhatsApp. He accommodated our bed set up request prior to our arrival and early check out time on new year day. Thank you!
Transport: 3 minutes walk to the bus station with regular bus to town. The bus ride is about 15 minutes to Gallery Accademia and 25 minutes to Boboli garden. All the taxi drivers we used had no trouble of finding the place.
Equipment: Well equipped with washing machine, dishwasher and kitchenware.
Overall a wonderful stay! The bathroom door is tricky and the wash basin tap need to be closed from certain angle but we managed.

- Sinead (10/5): Beautiful apartment in Florence - The apartment was lovely and the host was so helpful and accomodating with our check out time. The apartment is close to bus stops that reach city centre. Would definitely stay here again. Maybe different mattresses on the beds, however we all slept every night so they weren't that bad.
- Harieta (9/5): Per total locatia este foarte buna pentru un sejur in Florenta - Locatia este usor de gasit, pe o strada linistita, intr-un bloc curat, camerele sunt spatioase Usile necesita reparatii in special cea de la baie se blocheaza si cateva pleduri in plus ar fi necesare daca te nimeresti intr-o perioada cu nopti reci
- Fabi (10/5): -
- Annamaria (10/5): Utile per rilassarsi - La grandezza, la luminosità e la tranquillità Era tutto perfetto
- DAVID (9/5): - El piso estaba genial, un poco retirado del centro pero con autobús cerca
- Rhonda (10/5): - The host was very friendly and welcoming. They were quick to answer any questions we had. The apartment was bright and very clean. The location was near several bus stops and a great pizzeria. Only 20 minutes from the center of the city via bus. Very pet friendly. The air conditioning was perfect for the very hot Italian days.

- Temístocles (10/5): Exceptional -
- Diana (9/5): Superb -
- Ivan (8/5): Very good -
- Edward (8/5): A peaceful apartment allowing comfortable living. - It is a spacious apartment equipped with 2 balconies. The apartment is pleasant to live in and the area is quiet. With nice restaurants nearby, after a day in the city which is a 40-min walk, it is pleasant to be able to eat in the vicinity of the apartment. Finding a parking spot in the vicinity also was very easy. The interior of the apartment has quite some years, showing by a sagging bench and also the mattress on bed was uncomfortably thin.
Further the arrival was mildly welcoming, although it was a personal reception, it was a mainly contractual encounter, however no accessories like some coffee, water, etc, were complementary to the rent.
- Mary (10/5): Perfect location for our visit to Firenze and very comfortable , clean accommodation - The host was very pleasant and helpful. He gave good instructions on how to get to the property. The property was lovely, very comfortable, very clean and well equipped. It was close to public transportation - the city bus was about a 4 minute walk and came every 20 minutes. It took only 15 minutes to get downtown to the Santa Maria Novella train station and from there all the historical sights. The location of the property is in a safe residential neighbourhood. Grocery stores nearby or at the bus stop near the Station. An excellent spot. The best of our trip. nothing. It was all great.
- Gail (9/5): Lovely stay in a beautiful apartment. Would recommend - Very spacious clean comfortable apartment in a great location near to bus routes. The plug in bathroom basin would not release
- Anna (10/5): Exceptional - Perfect! We’ve spent 5 days here with my family and enjoyed it very much! The apartment is clean comfortable and well equipped. The city center is a 30 min walk away but that wasn’t a problem for us. There are very good cafes and restaurants nearby as well. I would recommend 100%
- Sandra (9/5): Superb - The apartment it was clean and comfortable. The kitchen was well equipped with cooking utensils. The apartment is about 20 minutes by bus. I have two big boys and the shower is low.
- Elaine (10/5): Soto Fiesole was molto excelente! - Location required buses to reach the center but they were excellent, very close to the apartment. Paolo was an attentive host who responded promptly to questions and anything else we needed. The apartment was well-appointed as compared to other places we've rented and was very homey and comfortable.
The neighborhood is very quiet and has charming restaurants and shops within 15 minutes walk. As always, the shopkeepers are kind and accomodating. Gelati were delicious.
- Kristen (10/5): Exceptional - Clean and comfortable apartment with a very nice owner.
- Steve (10/5): Exceptional - Beautiful apartment Well equipped. The shower was good but tricky to figure out how to make it colder.
- Magdaléna (7/5): Good -
- Carlos (9/5): Superb -
- Dawn (9/5): Superb -
- Róbert (10/5): Exceptional - We are very satisfied with the accommodation, very well equipped, spacious rooms, balcony, good location near the old town. There is a grocery store, tobacconist, and pharmacy nearby. The air conditioner and ceiling fan cooled the air in the bedroom very pleasantly at night. In the kitchen, you can prepare practically any kind of food, cleaning and cleaning products are available. On the first day, they waited for us with chilled water in the fridge. What I was very happy about was the washing machine. We have never gone home with so few laundry.😊 We highly recommend it to everyone, the owner Paolo is also very helpful and interested. We really liked sightseeing, but it was fantastic to come home to this homely, cozy apartement.❤️
- Selby (10/5): Exceptional -
- Andreas (10/5): Exceptional - The flat was very clean with all the amendments. Its only 15 min from downtown with the bus line 7 and 11. Paolo was very friendly and he was waited us at 3am to give us the keys due to flight delay. The neighborhood is very friendly and family oriented and there is supermarket in 5 min.
- Itai (9/5): a highly recommended place to stay in florence - Proprietor is a nice guy, accommodated our late arrival. Spacious and clean, in a nice neighborhood, just a 15 minutes bus ride from the old city. Free parking in the street next to the apartment. Overall an excellent value for money. Limited supply of dry goods - be sure to bring your own (e.g., instant coffee, tea bags)
- Hollie (8/5): Mostly pleasant - It’s a beautifully appointed apartment with a great neighborhood. Very quiet. Very organized. The apartment is spacious with good flow. It has balconies on both sides. The building is secure. It is better in person than in the photos. Sotto was nice and accommodated our late checkin and early checkout. The place is very comfortable except We could feel the springs through the queen mattress in the main bedroom - it needs to be placed.
I think this would bring Sotto’s rating to a 10.
- Racchen (10/5): a home in Florence - The apartment is big, cozy and bright. It's a perfect choice for people driving - easy and free to park. And bus to city center are around the corners. We feel like having a home in Florence these days. na
- Grace (9/5): We would most definitely recommend Sotto Fiesole. - The flat was spacious and comfortable. It was good to have outside space (2 balconies), on second floor (with lift). Secure entrance and quiet neighbours. There were only two of us, but there would be plenty of room for more. We had everything we needed in the well equipped kitchen. The weather had turned colder shortly before our arrival. Paolo was very quick to provide extra blankets. We appreciated the location: 45 minutes walk from tourist area, with an excellent bus service a few minutes away (number 7). Nearby cafes / restaurants: Lola cafe on first evening and Le Lune on last. We would recommend both. Excellent bakery nearby as well as small supermarkets. We had difficulty working the overhead shower head so used the handheld one. Paolo is aware of the problem. The double bed in one of the bedrooms is a sofa bed. It is very comfortable, but more difficult to get into if not agile! However, it could be used as a single if only needed for one person.
- Andreas (9/5): Improve the bed quality - Spacious,clean,pretty apartment.The area was residencial and very good.However far from the historical center. The beds were of average quality.
