This is the 3rd time I stayed at this peaceful nest. appreciated the quick and helpful communication with the host who helped to arrange an early morning taxi.
My only regret about my stay here is that it was too short. The host was magnificent, and the property was a dream come true.Across the street are a rose garden and a Japanese garden, and the street itself leads right to an opening in the wall and just a short dogleg to a bridge into the city center.
Words can't describe how awesome this place is! It is mere minutes from everything. When you type the code and the gate opens you feel you're stepping into the countryside, walk down a dirt lane to this idylic setting from which you can see the tower!- The bed is comfy, pillows fluffy, the kitchen small but 100% workable (we made a meal for 4 to eat in the garden).- There is a microwave - yay!- The bathroom is quite small but 100% fine - the shower folds out (very cool) but might be tight for a larger human.Suggestions: - Ice trays please! :-)- Maybe 2 more chairs for the outside table if one has friends over (our son and friend came to visit).Also - Bring bug spray!! There's a lot of mozzies all over Italy.Having lunch with family under the vines in the garden was magical.
A beautiful and peaceful stay very close to the Piazzale Michelangelo. I slept better here than in my hotels in Milano and Venice. Rocco was a great host, very responsive and helpful. I loved waking up in the sunlight but bring a sleep mask if you want to sleep in. :)
I was pleasantly surprised by this apartment, it was a beautiful private sitting. The place is conveniently located and easy to walk to the center of Florence.
The property is absolutely beautiful, behind a secured gate you walk down a gravel path that picturesque . Itâs lovely because thereâs so much open area, including olive groves. The apartment was exactly as pictured, very clean and had almost everything we needed. There wasnât enough hand soap in the bathroom, the container was empty upon arrival and there was one small roll of toilet paper, but we went out and bought some, it was no problem. The hosts were very responsive and arranged taxis for us which we really appreciated. They also made restaurant recommendations which were OK not great but still appreciate it. I would advise that if you have allergies to Cottonwood trees not to travel here during the months of March April, or May, the Cottonwood tree covered the grounds with white fluff and unfortunately, I was very allergic. But as soon as we left the property, I was totally fine so we managed. The skylight is the whole entire roof of the property and on our last night it malfunctioned and was opening on its own and would not stay closed. So that means we had bright light early in the morning which didnât make for great sleeping. I notified the owner and they said they would address this issue. Other than that, it was a very lovely stay. Florence is one beautiful city!
