Property is secure and comfortable. It is easily accessible to all Florence sites and museums. In the midst of activity but quiet inside with a great view of the city from terrace. We were able to walk everywhere. Would stay again if we return to Florence.
I had the best time with my visit to Florence. The property had all the charm of home during the middle of the Renaissance. Location is amazing. I was within walking distance of everything I wanted to see in Florence. It felt like my home away from home. I didn't realize how much I would enjoy having an elevator with us being on the third floor. This made it easy for us to depart each day and move our luggage during our arrival and departure. I highly recommend staying here.
Gaia was welcoming and delightful. The location was perfect. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. My only comment is that although the second bedroom houses only a small bed the mattress was extremely hard. It more than suited my needs but the mattress needs an upgrade.
Couldn't beat the location of the place, central to everything. Gaia met us when we arrived, went over things in the unit. Everything was clean and in working order.
Really enjoyed our stay!
Gaia was very accommodating and the apartment was exactly as listed. The location cannot be beat and the elevator is a rare find in the heart of the city.
This is a great place for a couple to stay. We had every we needed. It was comfortable, clean and ideally situated close to the Duomo and other tourist locations.
Our trip to Florence was perfect, and instrumental to this assessment of our dream trip was Gaia’s apartment and terrace. It was a beautiful, comforting home away from home with absolutely everything one would need to live in style. Gaia is there for you!
We couldn’t imagine in every way a better choice! We loved it here and dream of when we can return.
Thank you Gaia!!
The apartment had everything one needed for a nice stay. The elevator was about 10 steps up but cut a lot of distance from walking up. The location was great and we loved the terrace. We enjoyed some meals there since the kitchen had everything needed to cook dinner. Gaia was great.
The apartment was in the perfect location. I loved the terrace with its view of the Duomo and the Basilica di San Lorenzo. The apartment was very quiet at night even though it was in a busy area. Highly recommend.
The welcome was charming, and we loved the little flat, especially the terrace with the double-dome view. San Lorenzo is an exciting area- you need not go far for glorious sights to see.
The location is perfect to all the tourist sites. We would consider this apartment if we happen to be back here again. It’s my fourth visit here in this beautiful city and it always feel my first every time.
Nice apartment located right near the Medici Chapels and Mercato Centrale. Despite the busy area the apartment is very quiet and the terrace is amazing for morning coffee or an afternoon break. Host was very friendly and helpful! I’d definitely stay here on my next trip to Florence.
My friend and I loved staying in Gaia’s apartment, it is so close to everything and communication with her was easy and prompt. The apartment is well equipped and has everything you need, the only downside was as ladies in their 60’s and 70’s the beds are a bit too firm particularly the one upstairs , other than that I would highly recommend Gaia’s apartment
This apartment feels like home away from home and provides a true Florentine experience! Step onto the sidewalk and you're among the lively and bustling crowds of San Lorenzo but sit on the rooftop terrace and enjoy peace and quiet, along with the bells of the Duomo and Medici chapel.
The property is in a great location with fantastic views over the rooftops of Florence and for viewing some of the sunset. Very close to the basilica, duomo, supermercato and leather market. Within walking distance of the ponte Vecchio and the Uffizi.
The apartment is clean and well kept with a washing machine and everything one
Needs in a kitchen. A lovely Florentine city apartment. Makes one feel that one is part of the city.
Everything about the stay was perfect. Communication with owner (very fast response) was excellent. Great check in and location. Very clean and oh what a balcony! Thanks!!!
Gaia’s apartment lived up to all my expectation. It had everything you could possibly need for a fantastic stay. It was so quiet inside the apartment - amazing when you are in a very busy part of the city. I really appreciated the elevator after I’d been walking all day! For anyone security minded there will be no safety concerns at all - there is very secure access into the building and the apartment. A big thank you to Johnny for showing me around the apartment and explaining how everything worked. He was so helpful. I would definitely stay here again on another visit to the city.
