About this property

The location is very central: a few steps from the Duomo, the city center, but also from Santa Croce, Palazzo Signoria, Ponte Vecchio and all the main museums and places to visit in Florence. The street is quiet, but the adjacent neighborhood is full of life and small restaurants that welcome both locals and visiting tourists with their inviting menus. The choice ranges from the restaurant adjacent to the Synagogue, with kosher food, to vegan and vegetarian restaurants, to others with typical Tuscan cuisine, to small bistros that offer interesting alternatives for a quick snack. A well-stocked supermarket is about 50 meters from the apartment, open until 9:00 PM, even on Sundays.
Public transportation is in the adjacent street, but you will not need to use it unless you want to reach Fiesole or other more distant places (Piazzale Michelangelo is about 30 minutes away on foot).
The apartment is equipped with a dishwasher, washer-dryer, microwave, electric oven, hairdryer, wi-fi, iron and ironing board (on request), as well as sheets and towels.
The bedroom has a double bed; in a niche there is a bunk bed.
At the entrance / living room there is a cozy sofa, flanked by an armchair for relaxing moments.
The kitchen, very equipped, has everything you need to prepare meals of all kinds. An American coffee machine is available, as well as the Italian one.
Near the apartment: a supermarket, a pharmacy, gyms, spas, restaurants, shops and everything that can make your stay pleasant.
For those arriving by car there are many parking spaces available: I will take care of giving you all the information you need to leave your car safely.

A late check out (till 13:00), when possible, will cost 20 euros.

Great Place!

This was our first experience with any kind of Home Away/Airbnb place and it was great! Annalisa left a nice book of information about the area and instructions on how to use everything. The apartment is close to everything so we could walk everywhere. The area felt safe too. It can be a little noisy so bring earplugs and it won't matter. We would stay there again!

Perfect location/comfortable apartment

My husband and I stayed at Annalisa's apartment for 4 nights on our visit to Florence. She graciously allowed us to check in early due to our flight arrival. The locations was great and we could easily walk to the Uffizi and the Duomo. It was very convenient having the washer and dryer. The only slight issue is the shower pan has ridges which are uncomfortable on one's feet and there weren't enough hooks to hang up towels. We would definitely stay there again!

Ground floor apartment

We were very happy with our stay. The owner left detailed instructions on how to work the washing machine. We really appreciated the ground floor entry after so many stairs elsewhere. The kitchen was very well stocked, with cooking utensils and a larger refrigerator. There was a grocery store near by. The owner met us at the apartment for check in and when we had trouble arranging for a taxi to pick us up she arranged that for us

About the host

Hosted by Annalisa Scopinaro

We are a typical italian family, with three childreen crazy and happy. We like a lot travelling and knowing people, we are falled in love with our city and we should give the chance to all to know it better, expecially families that have children - as we are. This is the reason we have superior equipment for children.
Anyway, our apt is very suitable for couples too, in a romantic tour or only friends. The very central position allow to enjoy the visit of Florence with no thinks about transporting.
We live in the outskirts of Florence, even if work and school are in the center of the city. In our spare time we like to go around Florence as tourists do.
If you stay for a longer time, we are very happy if you can come for a dinner in our home: I like a lot cooking and it's a chance to exchange opinions, way of life and to taste some tuscan food (I do hand made pasta, for example....).

Why they chose this property

An apt in the center of the city was a dream we kept in a drawer; two years ago we had the chance to buy one and, while our children grow, we provide it to tourists.

What makes this property unique

What we liked in our house is fully autonomous (date direct from the entrance ) , quiet street , the proximity to all the major monuments and museums of Florence and its beautiful vaulted ceilings !!!
We are pleased that our guests feel at home , finding available a set of basic necessities without having to buy everything ; then also we provide dishwasher detergents and washing machine , as well as table cloths and tea towels .
For romantic evenings we leave available to crystal glasses and candles .
The small collection of glass and crystal shelf ensures less aseptic atmosphere in favor of a welcoming climate.
