Description from owner
Description
Elegant yet cozy atmosphere with a mix of modern and traditional style in this super functional apartment. Located close to places preferred by locals in-the-know, my apartment offers all the comforts of a home away from home.
Close to the European University Institute (EUI), away from the hassle and noise of the city center, my property is perfect for couples, friends and families with children (baby cot available upon request at the cost of Euro 20,00)
***FINAL CLEANING FEE 60 EUR to be paid at check in as well as 5,50 EUR per night/per guest as city tax (all to be given in cash)***
AT YOUR DISPOSAL:
A very bright apartment (65m2) on the first floor of a typical 1930th Florentine building, sleeping up to 4 people (2 adults and 2 children or 3 adults), 10 minutes by bus from the city center (Piazza San Marco), wifi internet, independent heating system.
The facility offers:
- Kitchenette provided with stove and oven, fridge and freezer, microwave, coffee maker, dishwasher, a complete set of kitchenware
- Living room whit sofa bed sleeping 2 people (2 children or 1 adult and 1 child), table with 4 chairs
- 1 Master Bedroom with queen size bed, wardrobes, night tables and reading lamp
- 1 Bathroom with wash basin, shower, bidet, toilet, hair dryer, mirror
- 1 small room with ironing facilities and washing machine
- 1 Terrace
Linens and towels are included. The apartment has A/C, intercom, wifi, mosquito screens - very useful especially in Summertime! -and anything you may need for a perfect stay just like at your home!
The apartment is located in one of the most appealing residential areas of Florence, beloved by locals thanks of its lively yet safe and relaxing atmosphere. Piazza delle Cure, only 7 minutes by foot form the apartment, literally bursts with life during the daily (except for Sundays) outdoor market where locals buy fresh veggies, fruit, meat and cheese or stroll around the booths looking for some new outfits at very competitive prices.
The area has everything you may need: supermarket, cafes, trattorias, gelaterie, fashion stores, a beautiful bookstore, bakeries, pharmacies, etc…
Shopping in this area is indeed cheaper than in the rest of the city as the area is located just outside the main city boulevards (that pass through Piazza Liberta’ and mark the border of the historical centre) but it's still within walking distance from the main attractions.
YOU ARE ONLY:
BY PUBLIC TRANSPORT (BUS # 1):
(bus stop next to the main door or within 3 minutes walking distance)
10 minutes from Piazza San Marco
15 minutes from Central Station
BY FOOT: 20 minutes from Piazza San Marco / Galleria dell’Accademia
BY CAR: 5 minutes from the city center.
PARKING:
Parking in the street is allowed at the cost of Euro 1,00 per hour from 8am till 8pm, so for a max of Euro 12 per day. Night fare, Sundays and Festivities are free!
What a great opportunity to use my property as a perfect base to discover by car the beautiful cities and landscapes that Tuscany has to offer you!
QUIETNESS:
As opposed to other apartments in the city center, you will fully enjoy the tranquility of this area, far better than the noisy narrow medieval streets packed with people that will often prevent you from sleeping at night.
CHECK IN PROCEDURE:
As this is not a hotel (but the personal assistance is far better, trust me!), and therefore there is no 24/7 reception duty, in order to organize the check in I will need the exact time of your arrival at the apartment. I will allow a maximum of 30 minutes of delay, after which we may leave the place and you will need to schedule another appointment by calling us directly.
Late check in (after 8pm) - € 20 to be paid at check in, early check out (before 8am) - € 20 to be paid at check in.
CITY TAX: The Florence City Council instituted an obligatory CITY TAX for all stays by non-resident visitors for a maximum of 7 nights. The tax amount is € 5,50 per person/night to be paid in cash at the check in. Children under the age of 12 are exempt.
HOUSE RULES:
Tenants shall not sublet the entire premises or any part of the premises to anyone else.
No animals or pets of any kind will are allowed in the premises.
There shall be no smoking inside the premises. Should tenants lock themselves out of their dwelling and be unable to gain access through their own resources, they may call upon professional locksmith or the Manager to let them in.

Good housekeeping is expected of everyone.

“Lovely base to explore Tuscany”
We stayed at this apartment on a birthday trip for 5 nights. We were greeted by the owner's (Bitte's) parents who were lovely - very warm and helpful pointing out some nice places to visit in the city. Bitte was outstanding in providing recommendations on day trips in the regions, restaurants, wine tasting etc...Before and during the visit. The apartment was impressive - immaculate, lovely tall ceilings, well lit and spacious. Florence was an excellent place to base our trip to Tuscany. Parking was directly outside the apartment - we always had a nice space to put the car, and required parking permit but at a reasonable cost (free after 2000 until 0800. The flat was well equipped including wi-fi with essentially everything we needed to make this a home from home. We would recommend this apartment
