There are no words to describe this beautiful house. I came with my husband. We were greeted by the owner with such kindness, and she went beyond her duty to take care of our needs in transportation, dinning. and feeling at home. The owner's hospitality and her home will forever be a wonderful memory that made Florence a city to love. A delightful, friendly place to stay and I would stay there again without hesitation. Highly recommended!!!

our hosts showed us very charming hospitality. Welcoming and smiling. Very clean shining house with everything for cooking, chilling and enjoying the nice view of Arno river. The house is located between two beautiful bridges (Santa Maria et Ponte vecchio). Recommended!

My husband and I stayed at this stunning apartment for a few days and it was magical! We have stayed in many apartments rented through HomeAway/VRBO and this was the most beautiful. The location was close to all the major sites in the city but at the same time in a quiet neighborhood which is exactly what we were looking for after a busy day. The apartment itself was stocked with everything one would need (shampoo, dishwasher, laundry, iron for clothes.....) Overall the perfect place to enjoy Florence especially with the balcony!!! We loved it so much that we would only return to Florence just to stay at this apartment it was that beautiful!! The service was fantastic as well, the owner met us at the property during arrival helped us with luggage then upon check out arranged a taxi for our next destination. Outstanding stay!!

From the moment we arrived at the door we was met warmly by the hosts of this truly stunning apartment, Ilkay & Ayla. They both were so welcoming and very proud of their magical roof top apartment which dates back to the 12th Century.

This apartment does not want for anything, it has been renovated with great care and everything you see and touch is of superb quality. Everywhere was beautifully clean and not a speck of dust to be seen anywhere. There is so much space on offer - the lounge seating and the superb large bed are extremely comfortable with lovely bedding & pillows too.

The location is within 100m of the famous Ponte Vecchio bridge but is also very quiet and peaceful. The views from the lovely balcony are exceptional - positioned overlooking the river and the Duomo is also less than a 10 minute walk door to door.

Our hosts Ilkay & Ayla were very very helpful in providing recommendations of good restaurants and advice in assisting us with transportation from the airport on arrival and the central train station on our departure.

Our visit to Florence was part of our Honeymoon - when we booked via the HomeAway site I had mentioned very breifly that we was on a special holiday (that was back in early February) - nothing more was mentioned or said. When we arrived we was blown away by both Ilkay & Ayla’s thoughtfulness & generosity as they had so delightfully decorated the room (see pictures in the gallery) with 20 red balloons, and provided a lovely tray, which had a bottle of sparking wine, chocolates and Bride & Groom glass decorations - truly a fantastic and amazing surprise for us which we will never forget - we thank you both again from our hearts.

If you want to have a stay to remember in the magnificent city of Florence with wonderful facilities, out of this world views of the river privacy and surroundings - look no further. This is the one for you!!
