Guest Reviews

• Vlasta (10/5): - Všechno naprosto úžasné. Paní majitelka se o nás skvěle starala, vše vysvětlila, ukázala kudy kam. Nezažili jsme lepší péči. Apartmán též skvělý, je tam vše, co je potřeba a je v krásném klidném prostředí. Není co vytknout
• Cornelia (9/5): wir haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt - die Gastgeberin war sehr um uns bemüht und hatte uns auch noch zum Bahnhof gebracht. Wir haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt und wären gern noch länger geblieben. Vielen Dank liebe Simona!
• Annie-Claude (9/5): Merci beaucoup pour le beau séjour! - La grande gentillesse de Simona dans ses conseils pour explorer la région. Un peu humide dans l’appartement
• Mariusz (8/5): -
• Maddin67 (8/5): - Sehr großes Kellerappatement mit Küche riesen Esstisch, Fernsehwcke und Terrasse. Das Anwesen liegt schön, und fernab von Lärm. Vielen lieben Dank für die Betreuung. Die Mücken haben uns nicht schlafen lassen 😄
• Berka (10/5): -
• Jean (9/5): - Bel accueil de Simona qui a été hyper disponible et nous a fournis toutes les explications pour aller à Florence Bus ,parkings et lieux à voir Appartement dans la campagne avec arrêt de bus à 5 minutes et très pratique pour aller à Florence . Nous étions 3 et appartement avec toutes les commodités. Rien à signaler Appartement en dessous de la maison des propriétaires donc un peu sombre mais rien de dramatique Beau jardin et il manquait peut être une petite table à la.extérieur pour se poser boire un coup Mais séjour à recommander si vous allez à Florence
• Georgios (10/5): - Η διαμονή μας ήταν ευχάριστη ο χώρος πολύ άνετος με όλα θα απαραίτητα. Η κ. Σιμώνη πολύ ευγενική και εξυπηρετική. Λόγω της τοποθεσίας το βράδυ είχε υγρασία. Η οικοδέσποινα όμως είχε φροντίσει και άναβε αυτόματα το καλοριφέρ. Επομένως επιλύονταν το πρόβλημα.
• Mike (8/5): Erholsamer und entspannter Urlaub in Florenz - Herzlicher Empfang von der Gastgeberin Simona. Sie hatte uns zur Begrüßung eine Flasche Wein und Obst bereitgestellt. Außerdem hat Sie uns wertvolle und gute Tipps für Florenz gegeben. Das Auto konnten wir auf dem abgeschlossenen Grundstück parken. Die Stadt Florenz ist zu Fuß, ca 3 km und gut mit dem Bus erreichbar. Es geht der Bus Nr 10 direkt von der Straße, aber wir haben gern den Bus Nr 17 einige 100 Meter weiter genommen, da er für uns zentralere Punkte in Florenz ansteuerte. Die Unterkunft ist groß und in einem parkähnlichen Grundstück bzw. Garten. Wir konnten direkt vor der Unterkunft die Sitzmöglichkeiten draussen nutzen und den Abend bei einem Glas Wein ausklingen lassen. Wenn wir jemals wieder nach Florenz kommen, dann auf jeden Fall wieder bei Simona.
• Christiane (10/5): - Die Gastgeberin war sehr nett und hilfsbereit. Wir haben über Whats App kommuniziert und sie hat uns hilfreiche Infos über Supermärkte, Restaurants und Cafés in näherer Umgebung gegeben. Auch wo der Bus in die Stadt abfährt, hat sie uns erklärt. Parken konnte ma super kostenlos auf dem Grundstück und mit dem Bus sehr schnell in der Stadt.
• Cédric (10/5): - Le logement est très confortable et situé dans un endroit très calme avec un petit jardin Tout était parfait
• Josipovic (10/5): - Es hat unsere Erwartungen übertroffen.Die Gastgeberin war nett,sachlich,hat uns sehr gute Anweisungen gegeben.Sehr zu empfehlen.
• Noor (9/5): Een rustige omgeving dicht bij de stad, een fijn verblijf! - Simona was onwijs vriendelijk en hielp ons graag. Daarnaast sliep het bed heerlijk en waren de faciliteiten volledig en netjes schoon.
• Шевчук (10/5): -
• 64Andy (8/5): -
• 원 (10/5): - 좋은 시설 훌륭한 접대 및 깨끗하고 편한 곳입니다 강력 추천 없슴
• Samuela (10/5): Un angolo di paradiso - Alloggio incantevole, spazioso, silenzioso, pulito e molto accogliente. Ospitalità eccellente da parte della proprietaria che ci ha accolti con estrema disponibilità. Nulla
• Adrian (9/5): - Bardzo wysoki standard apartamentu w porównaniu do ceny Fakt, że gospodarze mieszkają w tym samym budynku jest lekko krępujące.
• Simone (10/5): - Veramente un piacevole monolocale, la proprietaria è di una dolcezza rara. Se avrò la possibilità ritornerò sicuramente
• Salvatore (10/5): Abbiamo trascorso un fine settimana meraviglioso - Tutto fantastico, Simona una persona speciale
• Ovidiu-Sorin (10/5): Amazing place, away from the crowded areas - First thing that impressed us was Simona, she contacted me and gave me clear directions on how to get to the property and she waited for us at the bus station to take us to the apartment. She was very friendly and welcoming and helped us with tips were to eat and what to visit and how to get there. The property was amazing, clean, in a quiet area, away from the trafic, nature around, can enjoy there a tea in the morning. The apartment was big and had all we needed for our stay, Simona made sure we had everything, tea, coffee and even water, besides the usuals you always get. It is a bit far from the old city, but once you get there and see the trees and enjoy the quiet, it is worth it. Highly recommend this place for those who want to visit Florence and not be in the crowded center or want some quiet place, really good and Simona was amazing and we are grateful for her help and effort. Nothing to say here
• Malou (10/5): - The host is very kind, helpful and accommodating.
• Melissa (9/5): Great apartment and location - Simona was a fantastic host! She sat down with us to show us places to visit on a map, gave us links to restaurants and cafes in the area, and drove into town on our first day as we had to meet for a cooking class. She even booked an emergency dentist visit for me! The apartment is spacious, clean and very well equipped and is in an excellent location with everything you need close by. Very close to city centre too. We will be back! The only thing I would say is the solid curtain doesn't go all the way across the front of the front doors, so you can see in a little bit from outside at night. But that wasn't a huge issue really. It certainly didn't affect our stay.
• Fredrik (10/5): Very good! - Spacious apartment, clean and very nice owner! Easy access to city center with buss.
• CESAR (8/5): -
• Nora teresa (10/5): - Excelente todo, el lugar un poco alejado del centro turístico, pero valió la pena, nuestra anfitriona nos fué a buscar a la parada del bus, nos ofreció llevarnos al súper, nos atendió de maravillas, gracias gracias
• Nicole (10/5): Endroit formidable à recommander - Tout était parfait la propriétaire Simona était une hôtesse parfaite ainsi que son conjoint. L endroit était impeccable et nous avions tout pour cuisiner comme à la maison. Ils sont même venu nous chercher et reconduire au train. Simona était toujours présente pour répondre à nos questions et nous diriger vers les endroits que nous avions à visiter. Aucun commentaire négatif
• Constantino (9/5): - Todo muy limpio y con todas las comodidades de una casa. La propietaria fue muy amable con nosotros todo el tiempo y nos llevo en su auto a la parada de bus con todas las maletas. Ideal si vas en auto y buscas tranquilidad ya que queda lejos del centro de Florencia y no es muy recomendable si vas en transporte publico.
• Αθηνά (10/5): -
• Giora (10/5): Great place, lovely owner - The owner was very welcoming, sent me a list of locations, restaurants, etc. She also spent the time and marked interesting items on a map. The place was specious and very clean.
• Katja (10/5): Kleines Paradies inmitten der tollen Stadt Florenz - Wir hatten einen wunderschönen Aufenthalt in Florenz. Simona, unsere Gastgeberin, war über WhatsApp und Booking.com sehr gut zu erreichen, vor und während unseres Aufenthalts. Wir wurden beim Check in am unteren Tor von ihr abgeholt und sie zeigte uns die Wohnung, welche sehr liebevoll eingerichtet ist. Alles ist sehr sauber und modern. Die Küche hat alles was man braucht. Es gibt einen großen Kühlschrank mit Eisfach. Das Bad ist sehr groß und sauber. Es gibt genug Ablageflächen. TV mit verschiedenen streaming Diensten wie Amazon Prime, Netflix u.a. vorhanden. Anstelle des Doppelstockbetts gibt es nun zwei einzelne Betten, so dass mindestens 4 Personen übernachten können. Da wir zu zweit waren, störte es uns nicht, dass alles in einem sehr großen Raum war. Simona organisierte uns vorab Bustickets, so dass wir das Auto im abgesicherten Gelände der Unterkunft stehen lassen konnten und direkt nach Ankunft mit dem Bus in die Stadt fahren konnten. Vielen Dank dafür. Die Wohnung ist wie auf den Fotos zu sehen ausgestattet. Man konnte nachts sehr gut schlafen, kein Lärm. Vor dem Apartment ist eine kleine Sitzgruppe, wo man abends noch den Tag ausklingen lassen kann. Sollten wir wieder nach Florenz fahren, würden wir gerne wieder hier übernachten. Alles war perfekt. Wir waren sehr zufrieden mit dieser Unterkunft
• Sally (10/5): It was a wonderful experience and I hope to return some day! - Simona is a fabulous host! She met my taxi at the bottom of the hill when I arrived and loaded my luggage into her car! The apartment is beautiful and has everything you need! Simona made sure to go over everything that I would need and she even showed me how to make the espresso! The queen bed was very, very comfortable! The AC worked perfectly, in fact I got cold and had to turn it down! The apartment was spotless! She had little details like body lotion in addition to shampoo and body wash! Simona took the time to look up the bus schedules and tell me where and when to take buses to my destinations! I felt like I was staying with friends! It is a very private area up a long hill with 2 gates along the way. I felt very safe! If you have limited mobility you should rent a car because it's quite a walk down the hill from the apartment to the main street to get buses and taxis.
• Vladimir (10/5): Very pleasant accommodation ! - Warm welcome from the homeowner Simona, excellent accommodation, private parking provided and good bus connections to the city center.
• Brice (10/5): Very nice host and location - Spacious and clean Open area. No privacy
• Vladimirs (10/5): - Хорошее месторасположение, если отдыхаете с автомобилем. Да и без машины можно добраться до центра на общественном транспорте. Просторные аппартаменты на закрытой территории. Есть все удобства, кроме стир. машины. Хозяйка любезно предложила воспользоваться её стир. машиной. Рекомендую эти аппартаменты для ознакомления с Флоренцией и округой.
• Gaultier (10/5): - Excellent accueil avec un plan de la ville et les lieux incontournables. Très disponible L appartement est très bien équipé. L arrêt de bus juste à côté pour visiter et si trajet en voiture à qq km de chaque site.Parking sécurisé Ras
• MARIA INMACULADA (10/5): Alojamiento imprescindible para visitar Florencia en familia - El alojamiento es tranquilo, limpio y con todo lo necesario para estar en Florencia. Parada de bus en la puerta. Muy recomendable.
• Richard (9/5): -
• Erkan (10/5): - Alles
• BAI KUN (9/5): - 在佛罗伦萨的市中心旁边能找到这样的田园风格的住宿真是太棒了！出租的房子是房东房子的其中一间，房子远离街道，非常的安静，但必须要有汽车出入才方便。房东很热情，会耐心的解答我们的各种问题，让我们对这里留下了非常美好的印象。
• Julie (10/5): Hidden gem. - Absolutely wonderful place. Simona met us at the bottom of the road and was so warm and helpful. It feels like you’re in the countryside, but the bus stop is a five minute walk down the driveway. Nothing.
• Lokesh (7/5): Great landlady. Clean basement apartment. - Very very very helpful landlady. She laid out a whole plan for our short stay. The apartment was clean and parking was great. She was accommodating. The road to the house was not quite what I had imagined. Be careful if you are not comfortable driving in a small alley type road. But again it is Florence so... I don't know about public transportation as i didn't use it but I think if you walk down to the main street there is a bus. One thing missing in the description is that it's a walkout basement apartment.
• Pavol (8/5): Very good -
• Deepanker (10/5): I had one of the best experiences so far. - The property is so artistically done and so well maintained. The hosts are very very helpful and amazing people. The location is also very nice if someone is looking for peaceful time with proximity to city centre.
• Peter (9/5): Lovely, spacious apartment with everything we needed - Lovely, spacious apartment in secluded location close to city. Apartment had everything needed and more. Simona is a wonderful host, and provided great advice for our visit. Nothing
• Elena (10/5): Exceptional - It’s one of the best houses where I stayed in Italy! It’s in the very beautiful territory where you can feel the Tuscany nature despite the fact that you’re in a city. The house is very beautiful, spacious and clean. There are so many small details that make you feel that you’re home and not in the hotel! The owner is very friendly, helpful and nice person. The house is good connected with the center of city, and it’s not far. For us it was a pity that we booked it’s only for 1 night, we would stay there more! NOTHING
• Rizalman (9/5): Lovely property, lovely host.. - Its a beautiful place within a serene and peaceful estate. The host Simone is a wonderful, lovely host, really friendly and we were grateful for all her help and guides to make our stay pleasant and our visit to firenze city worthwhile. She sat down with us and run through firenze’s map with her yellow highlighter to show where to go, paths to take and which buses to carry us around. Even suggested a delightful gelato’s place near the property. The bus stop is nearby within 5min walk to the property while the ride to town is about 20mins away. The property is really comfortable and clean. We’re ever thankful to Simone and would love to see her again if we have the chance to visit Firenze again. The access is a bit tricky but just follow Simone’s direction in her message.
• Gusul (9/5): A great clean apartment with a wonderful helpful host everything well functioning in a green area where you can experien - That it was a bit away from the busy center and the property had a closed green area which was great for us travelling with a dog. The host was wonderful and very helpful with useful information and the apartment was very clean and cozy and everything was well functioning. The only minus I can think of is all 4 of us staying in the same open area as there were no doors to separate rooms. However it is only a little minus as I was travelling with grown up kids. It would have been no problem if my kids were younger - on the contrary probably a plus.
• Branislav (10/5): Amazing - Great quiet location, right on the bus stop to the center. Fully equiped kitchen, working air condition, even the anti-mosquito sets (more variants) available. Super clean and modern appartment. Best place to explore the city and super kind and helpfull owners. Ready to explain everything you need to meet the city and surroundings. Big thank you from whole family to whole family Nothing to mentioned
• Simona (10/5): Exceptional - Beautiful place to stay if you want visit Firenze. You can simply take a bus, to take you to the old center. The owners are very nice and they give you all informations that you need. We'd surley book this apartment again if we come back to Firenze one day. Thank you! /
• Kalina (10/5): Absolutely incredible - Amazing experience with the best host ever! For starters, my flight had a crazy delay and I missed the first night but Simona was so mindful to greet me at 7 in the morning and show me around the neighbourhood and recommend me places to visit and eat. The place is amazing, just like in the pictures and in a very pretty and quiet area. The apartament is clean, cozy has everything you need if you want to stay in. There is a bus stop nearby and you can go to the city center very easily. Simona always made sure we had everything we needed and really made us feel welcomed! 10/10 recommend the place to everybody and if I visit Florence again, I’d stay here again!
• Rosanna (10/5): 2 day stay in Florence - The beds were comfortable and the host was so helpful. Simona assisted with restaurant suggestions where we ate the best florentine steak we’ve ever had!!
• Barbara (10/5): Worthy - Everything! The owner was very kind and made us feel very comfortable during all our stay.. The house was super clean, and the entry had beautiful fireflies at the night I liked everything :)

• Tomasz (10/5): Lovely stay in Firenze - I was first time in Florence. Location of this apartment is good. It's easy to reach to Old Town by bus nr 10. Simona is great and helfull host. Gave us many tips how to reach to the Center and what is worth to visit in this neighbourhood. I recomended with all my hart stay at Poggio Gherardo. Nothing

• Kristina (8/5): Nice and quite area close to Florence - very friendly people. - Very nice people - everything was perfect!
• Eva (10/5): Just a perfect stay in Florence - Calm location not far from centre of town. Everything you need for your stay is there. Comfortable bed, well equipped kitchen, clean bathroom... we enjoyed the swimming pool, which is a perfect relaxation after city walk. Simona recommended good restaurants in this part of town.
• Laura (10/5): Exceptional -
• Paula (10/5): Would recommend to everyone. - Everything was perfect for 2 adults and 2 teenagers. Simona (the host) provided everything, very informative, was always on the end of WhatsApp, but also left us alone. Bus route to town at the bottom of the drive easy to use. Taxi from train station approx 20 euros.
• Max (10/5): Exceptional -
• Deyaa (9/5): Superb - Simona was super nice and helpful, place is wonderful and very peaceful, clean and quiet, facilities are all good. Location and reaching inside is challenging if you have no car, car parking is little tight for small cars, adding washing machine would be really an added value.
• Johnel (9/5): Superb -
• Ji (10/5): The BEST host and home! - You will meet the besf host in Italy! I usually dont leave comments but she went out of her way to make me feel home! She knows how a traveller feels and needs! She WAS pretty much my italian mother!
• Iulia (10/5): Exceptional - Everything was great and Simone was such a lovely host. The property is in a quiet area, secure, and we had everything we needed.
• Nikola (10/5): Exceptional - Everything was perfect! The owners were super nice, gave us many recommendations and tips on what to do and where to eat. Place is gorgeous, pet friendly, very calm (and on the other hand super close to city centre). We enjoyed it a lot and will be recommending to others. Thanks for one extraordinary experience ❤️
• Emanuela (8/5): Very good -
