Our family had a great stay in Florence. The home was great. It was clean and in a great area. Walkable to great restaurants, attractions and shopping. My kids LOVED the home! There were fun activities for them in the house. The main bedroom did not have air conditioning and there was no elevator. The apartment was on the 3rd floor. The stairs to the second floor loft were very steep as well. The home was comfortable and Fabrizio was wonderful. He met us at the apartment and walked me through the house rules. He was very responsive with communication as well.
Our family of 4 adults enjoyed the cool and funky space to rest after long days exploring the beautiful, historic city and nearby countryside. Sofia was very responsive and helpful and, upon arrival, Fabrizio met us at the door to show us the apartment. Thank you!
Our family of 5 loved this place. Much more space than we expected, clean and comfortable. Great restaurant and small grocery store steps away. 5 minute walk to train station and short walk to the busy areas of Florence.
This beautiful apartment is a short walk from the train station. We met Sofia very briefly, and then were checked in by Fabrizio who was kind, helpful, and quickly responded to a question we had the next day.My wife and 4 kids all enjoyed our stay. I would highly recommend staying here, and if we ever came back with a group/family of 4-6, we would certainly stay here again!
I booked this property because of its proximity (around the block) from the train station Firenze SMN. What I did not expect was that the location was on a vibrant street in the historic area of Florence. It was completely walkable. 10 minutes to the Duomo and 18 min to the Uffizi. Property is well described on the website. Don't be alarmed by the stairwell, which is not in the best condition - the apartment is great. Large, clean and full of character. The upstairs bathroom has a really low ceiling and my kids ended up using our bathroom downstairs. The downstairs bathroom is great. Kitchen is well appointed. We arrived by train at about 7:40 PM and there was an extra charge for "late check in." Keep this in mind while planning. I would absolutely stay here again.
The location was great close to everything. It was very clean and our family enjoyed it. The apartment is very well layed out & the kitchen is very well equipped. Save some energy at the end of the day for the stairs.
Property was as advertised, comfortable, spacious and clean. It had everything you would need for either a one night stay or a week. Centerally located so perfect for visiting Florence. The host responded very quickly on all questions. I would stay there again.
This apartment is on the best street in Firenze! Each night after dinner we would take a stroll around the gorgeous duomo and enjoy the vibrant nightlife of all the restaurants, cafes, and fun happening on our street.
The apartment is exactly as described and was perfect for us. It is up stairs, but that was noted in the description, and a well known feature in many Italian homes. We were prepared for it and packed light!
Literally everything you need is within walking distance. We found it so easy to hop on the train for day trips (LOVE Modena, Parma, Siena, and Lucca), and spent several days walking Florence, taking in the sights. If you are not walking through Florence you are missing out, and Soniaâs apartment is in the perfect location for it all.
We had everything we needed and were very comfortable. Sonia, thanks for your hospitality. We absolutely fell in love with Florence and couldnât have picked a better location to stay at than Via Faenza!
I have to say this apartment was even prettier and roomier than the photos! Beware it is on the fourth floor but the hosts carried my bag up for me which was very kind!
The apartment had everything I needed and was super convenient to the sights and the train station! Restaurants close by were plentiful as well as shopping of all kinds.I really enjoyed my stay under the roof of Sofia!
Like they say for real estate, location, location, location. This is a great spot, only a couple blocks from the train station and walkable to many of the attractions. It's near the busy markets but just far enough away to be in a quiet space.
The apartment itself was spacious and comfortable. The upstairs steps take a bit to gets used to, but are useable even by us older folks. The upper bath ceilings are low, making the spacious lower bathroom more popular. The shower is fairly small but works well.
We didn't do any cooking there, but it seemed to be well equipped. I would stay at this location again if visit Firenze again.
Quiet neighborhood but close to everything, including good restaurants. Well equipped kitchen. Lots of space. We didnât realize how many steps up it was, but good cardio,
Super fun, quirky apartment in a quiet building not far from the train station. The duomo is a short walk away and the neighborhood has lots of restaurants. Host is very thoughtful and the communication is great. Be advised there is no elevator, which is very common.
We enjoyed our stay at Under the Roof of Sofia. Very convenient to the sites of Florence as well as the train station. The place was very clean and comfortable. Was on the third floor with no elevator, so may be an issue for some. Would stay there again.
Sofia has a lovely home that was perfect for our family of seven. Communication was great, and the apartment was comfortable and pretty well appointed. We thoroughly enjoyed our time in Florence!
