“Stunning apartment and perfect host.” Extremely clean and beautifully appointed flat was perfectly situated to see the sights and visit the markets of Florence. The kitchen has every amenity and all appliances are new and top of the line. No need to scrub the pots before you cook here. The supermarket on the street and the market just around the corner provided us with the fresh ingredients for the best meals. There is even a toaster and a drip coffee maker if you prefer a non-Italian breakfast. Good restaurants and coffee shops in the area. The map and directions provided by our host got us on the right track quickly to see the sights. The neighbourhood is safe for an evening walk for a gelati or espresso. The bed was extremely comfortable with extra linens and towels provided. The heat in the flat was adjustable so that the rooms were always the right temperature. The best flat we have ever stayed in when on vacation.

“Great Apt” This apartment was almost perfect. I'll get it out of the way and say the shower was very tight, i'm 5'6" 156lb and it felt cramped. But I dont there is anything that can be done about this so its just something you live with. The apt itself was spacious, it has a washer, close to city center, comfortable and included a bottle of water and coca cola. We only slept in one of the rooms and felt it satisfied all needs. The apt stayed cool and we never had to run the a/c just the fan at night. This is a very cute apt. We also didnt use the bikes, but thought about it and decided to walk since we were mainly shopping and taking tours during our time in Florence. The location is just outside the main center on a quiet street. It takes maybe 4-6min to walk to Duomo area, 25min to walk to train station. I would not recommend walking to train if you have luggage, the sidewalks and roads makes it a long 25min. Gianluca was very pleasant. He met us at the apt and gave us some contact info for tour guides. We didnt have any issues so we never had to call him for assistance.

“How to visit Florence but live like a local” Staying in this apartment allows you to have a true Florentine experience. The apartment is well furnished, kitchen adequately appointed for full mean preparation, bathrooms very clean, functioning clothes washer. The rent, most reasonable. Half a block down is a wonderful butcher and green grocer; Florentine wood crafting artist, a nice bar\disco, great restaurants, terrific coffee bar and bakery, Bar Marino,. the best ice cream in Florence at the gelato Carraia is three blocks away. Carmine Church with the marvelous frescos in the Branacci chapel.is a block away. Great location, nice landlord, reasonable price.

“So glad we found this place” You're just a few weeks away from your holiday and you find out the place you had planned to stay will still have the builders in! For us this turned out to be good news because we took some more time to find a place in Florence and we were delighted with the one we chose. We arrived, a little delayed and at the same time as the heatwave, so it was great to get into the apartment to a friendly welcome from Elisabetta. Everything we needed was explained and was close at hand, really helpful for first time visitors to Italy. We enjoyed a wonderful week-long stay, coped with the temperatures and the city's busy-ness (I know we were adding to it!), drank in the culture and the views of this incredible city, and ate at some fantastic restaurants just a short walk from the apartment. Having such a lovely well-equipped delightful place to return to each evening meant it was worry-free and we could really relax.

“Meraviglioso” Lovely, apartment in a desirable neighborhood with easy access to all areas of Florence. I walked to all the sights of the city with ease. A bus route was available within one block. The family owners were delightful and very helpful. I felt "at home" while living in this charming apartment and would highly recommend.

“Wonderful Spacious Apartment” Amazing apartment, lots of room, interesting old building, good location near shops, grocery store, restaurants (don't miss All' Antico Vinaio right up the street for the best Florence sandwiches). Easy walk to Santa Croce church, Uffizi gallery, Duomo, etc. Washer/dryer especially useful. They even provide snacks! We couldn't have asked for anything better.

“Great location, clean, safe and great price.” We loved our experience at affresco. I was a little leary of renting apartments as this was my first experience but Enrica was warm and genuine and we had a great time at her place. The apartment was very clean and modern and the perfect size for my wife and I. If and when we return to Florence we will definitely stay there again.

“what wonderful accommodation for a stay to the center of Florenc” We staid to Il Moro apartment for 5 days during the New Year's holidays. Florence is a wonderful city, you know. Furthermore we were really pleased with having found out this wonderful apartment where we spent a memorable romantic getaway. In general, the apartment is roomy, well suitable for couple needs; in addition, there is also a french bed, suitable for one or two kids. What we were really positively surprised about this apartment is the care the renters (who are very kind and available to provide information suitable for vacation) have taken in every detail: not only order and cleanliness, but also every kind of comfort and above all the quality of furnishings for kitchen, bathroom and bedroom. We had all we need, like to be home. For these reasons, the quality-price ratio is really good. If one does want to find a drawback of the accommodation, it is located on the top floor of a historical building with no elevator, hence the baggage transport might result a little bit hard, but it is not too much tricky for a young couple. Anyway, this effort is definitely paid back by all apartment comforts. The location is very good too: at the historical center of the city, 5 minutes walk away from Tornabuoni Street and Strozzi Palace and from Santa Maria Novella Church; getting main train station takes not more than 10 minutes, by slowly walking and with baggage. It takes 10 minutes walk to get the main tourist attractions of the historical city center, such as the Dome and Signoria's Square (with Uffizi building). The central location enabled us to easily get around the city center by walk. A few steps close to the apartment is the stop of the number 12 bus, which leads to Michelangelo's Square and San Miniato al Monte Church. In summary, a wonderful experience... to be lived! We suggest it and are going to get back there!

“Beautiful apartment in a beautiful city” We stayed for 4 nights and loved it! The apartment is modern, bright, and spacious. It is equipped with everything you could possibly need. The location is great, just across the river from the main city center. Easy walk to the train station and most places in Florence, and a safe location. Wonderful restaurants on this side of the river, and less touristy. Leila greeted us when we arrived and was wonderful, helping us with restaurant recommendations and a thorough walk through of the apartment. On check out, she helped us get a cab and even waited with us until it arrived. Wouldn't hesitate to stay in this wonderful apartment again!
