Fantastic place
by Kraig SFantastic place in the perfect location. Plenty of restaurants and cafes just steps away from the door.
Exceptional
by Patricio POur stay at Pierino's apartment was exceptional. The beauty of the place matched exactly with the published images. Its location is unbeatable, surrounded by exquisite restaurants and a wine bar right next door. It's also less than a 10-minute walk from the city's main attractions, including the Duomo, Piazza della Signoria, Ponte Vecchio, and the Uffizi Gallery, among others. Both ItalyPerfect and our hostess, showed great willingness and flexibility. They offered us an early check-in for a minimal fee to align with our train's arrival and were also flexible with the checkout time. This greatly facilitated our stay.
It was a great location!
by Kristen PWe had a wonderful stay in this apartment. It was a great location! Several very good restaurants on the same street and very easy walking distance to many of the top attractions in Florence. The apartment was very clean and comfortable. Check-in and out were very easy and we had great communication with the host. Would recommend to anyone looking for a nice and convenient place to stay in Florence

Fantastic apartment
by Oda BFantastic apartment, truly one of a kind. Exquisite design. Close to everything but at the same time quiet at night. Excellent restaurants in the same street as the apartment. We loved it!
Very nice apartment
by Florent BTrès bel appartement, bien placé dans la ville! Nous avons beaucoup apprécié la qualité des lits et des salles de bain! Appartement bien isolé de la rue avec double vitrage et portes isolante. Aucun bruit dans la chambre malgré les restaurants et bars dans la rue. A noter, que l eau du robinet à une forte odeur de javel (sans du à la ville). Pensez à acheter de l eau en bouteille
Very nice apartment, well placed in the city! We really appreciated the quality of the beds and bathrooms! Well insulated street apartment with double glazing and insulating doors. No noise in the room despite restaurants and bars on the street. It should be noted that the tap water has a strong bleach smell (not due to the city). Consider buying bottled water
Beautiful place!
