We stayed here for one week and thought it was great.
Very close to the train station and market. Apartment met our needs.
Nadia is the most gracious, responsive and hospitable person that you can imagine. The apartment is nearly new and well furnished. It is about a 15 minute walk to the city center. Nadia went over the top in providing the little things such as dining and tour suggestions. The outside terrace is a plus. Very comfortable apartment. You can’t go wrong.
Excellent choice for people who like to walk and explore Florence beyond the Centro Storico. Convenient for Oltrarno as well as Centro Storico, with grocery and restaurants nearby. The large terrace is a real bonus. Nadia was very helpful and friendly, I highly recommend her apartment.

This apartment matched the photos. Nadia, the owner was very welcoming and was waiting for us as arranged. We had 4 nights, but this wasn't enough to make good use of the terrace for relaxing in as most of our time was spent exploring the city. The apartment was easily reached by tram from S.M. Novella train station. In the heat, however, we did find walking in and out of the old part of the city quite tiring. It was slightly further out than we anticipated. This would probably not be so much of a problem in the cooler months. Most self catering items were provided. There was limited drawer space for clothes - only hanging space. The neighbourhood felt quite safe and the location was fairly quiet and well lit.

A very clean, well equipped apartment in a quiet area close to Porta al Prato. It is in a fairly new modern block and has a patio with seating and shade that is very secluded and pleasant place to sit for a drink in the evening or eating outside. There's no view.
It is about 20 minutes walk from the Station ( we travelled by train from London) and a few minutes longer to all the main sights. It is very easy to get a tram to/from the station or a number 2 or 3 bus into/from the centre. The bus map from the tourist information centre ( there is one opposite the Santa Novella station) is a must if you don't want to walk every where.
Nadia, the owner, is very helpful and gave us lots of information about walks and places to eat/drink. We covered most of the walks and sampled some of the eateries/bars in our three day stay .We were not disappointed.
There is a small general store near the Porta al Prato for self catering needs.

This rental was very clean. The owner was very kind. The balcony was great. It was close to downtown and a few restaurants/cafes.
