Really nice stay in great location
We enjoyed our stay. The apartment is right in the heart of Florence. Apartment was well equipped and clean. Front bedroom can get a bit noisy on weekends as closer to the street. Check was easy and owner was pleasant and checked on us if we needed anything. Overall great find.

You will never want to leave....
This apartment is fabulous. Step 1 - First impressions. The location is perfect. Cobbled streets, surrounded by historical buildings, with main attractions within walking distance. So many restaurants and shops to keep you occupied. Step 2 - The minute you open the front door, the wow factor hits you. Very spacious, beautifully decorated and has all your holiday requirements. The courtyard area is delightful. A perfect place to sit with friends enjoying a glass of wine, and listen to the church bells. Laura, the owner, takes time to meet you to ensure you have everything you need. We stayed one week, next time we will stay longer.

Well equipped and ideally located
We spent a very enjoyable week at this delightful apartment, which is well equipped and ideally located. The air conditioning in the bedrooms and living room are effective and quiet.and the terrace includes plenty of optional shade from a parasol and electrically operated awning - a real boon in hot weather. The Duomo is 200 metres away and the Uffizzi and Accademia galleries, Santa Maria Novella, the Medici chapels and Santa Croce are within a kilometre. There are supermarkets and a wide range of restaurants with excellent food in easy walking distance. We can strongly recommend the apartment.

Wonderful!
My son and I stayed at this property and could not have been happier! The charming owner, Laura, was incredibly kind and even tried to find crutches for my son, who was injured. The apartment was roomy and lovely. It had everything we needed. It was extremely well located in the center of Florence, but it was not noisy because it was on a fairly quiet street, near a library. What was also wonderful was the pleasant terrace. I can't recommend this apartment highly enough!

Perfecto
The location is outstanding. Everything is walking distance. The apartment is spacious with a wonderful balcony. The hosts are amazing. They gave very useful travel tips. Coming and going. We had trouble securing a taxi big enough for our luggage so my wife and son went in a taxi and Laura’s husband gave us a ride to the train station. We would stay there again for sure. If this apartment is an available, book it now.

She greeted our family, took us to an amazing restaurant for our first dinner, and genuinely cared and looked after us during our stay. The apartment is so spacious, clean, amazing location, and has all the amenities you would ever want. We can't wait to go back to Florence and to also see Laura again :)

Wonderful apartment
We stayed eight nights and loved. It’s exactly the type of property I would want to own and live in. We walked out of the building to a street view of The Duomo and were within 15-20 minute walks to all main historic sites. Our hostess greeted us as we arrived and got us settled in. She responded quickly when we had a problem with the bathroom and made sure we had our taxi reserved and on time for our departure. We would definitely stay there again when we return to Florence.

Excellent apartment in unbeatable location
Walk out the front door, turn left and within 100 yards you are at the Duomo and other must see sites, as well as great restaurants, trattorias, gelato shops, and all that Old Florence has to offer. The apartment is well appointed, very clean, and all rooms have A/C. Laura is a wonderful host and gave us some excellent recommendations for restaurants and places to pick up groceries and wine, etc. we had a great ten days and would come back and do it again in a heartbeat! Oh, and I almost forgot to mention the outdoor patio/terrace - a great place to enjoy morning coffee or a glass of wine in the evening.

Wonderful Apartment!
My 21 year old son and I came to Florence before my son began his semester abroad there. The apartment was clean, spacious, and equipped with everything we would need on our stay. The location was perfect to get around the city and within walking distance to all the sites, and the outdoor terrace was perfect to sit and enjoy a glass of wine in the evenings. Laura was so wonderful in meeting us when we arrived at the apartment and giving us great tips on our stay. She and her husband Gabriele were so gracious and kind! A perfect way to stay in the beautiful city of Firenze!

Location and comfort!!
From the warm welcome by Laura to our last breakfast - a delightful experience. All the main tourist sites are within easy reach, the electric buses are nearby if you get tired of walking. We cooked most of our meals and enjoyed the excellent market Laura showed us, the kitchen allowed us full facilities. The photos are accurate! Of particular value was the terrace, full of plants, facing south but well shaded. As an unplanned bonus the World Cycling Championships passed under the window! Many thanks to Laura.

Lovely apartment, excellent location, wonderful experience
The apartment is very comfortable, a real home away from home. It is close to local restaurants, grocery stores and pharmacies and the Duomo is just 5 minutes away. We were able to walk to everything during our stay, including numerous museums and churches. Laura went out of her way to make our arrival and our stay as comfortable as possible. The apartment was perfect for 2 couples, with plenty of separation between the bedrooms, each with their own bathroom. The outdoor space is fabulous and there is a beautiful library directly across the street with a great coffee shop and unobstructed views of the Duomo. We stayed in 5 different accommodations during our trip to Italy and this was our favorite. If we come back to Florence we would definitely stay here again.

Great Apartment
This lovely apartment could not be better located for exploring Florence! Most all sights are within walking distance, and the train station is about 15 minutes walking distance should you wish to venture from Florence. The public library is across the street. We choose this apartment for the lovely terrace, and indeed it is lovely, but, alas, it rained 7 of the 8 days we were there. We would return just for that terrace! The 2 bedrooms/2 baths were very convenient for two couples offering each of us privacy. We enjoyed the roomy kitchen for coffee and toast in the morning. Although we did not cook any meals (oh-so-many fabulous restaurants in town), the kitchen was well stocked for those wishing to eat in. All was clean and comfortable and I would not hesitate to recommend the apartment to family/friends. Should we return to Florence, this apartment will be our first choice.

HEAVEN'S PATIO
Necessary supplies are provided. The location is magnificent as it is a short walk to the Duomo. There are plenty of restaurants, coffee shops and a great small supermarket named Conad's a short walk away. The best part of the stay was the apartment had a lovely patio on which we had meals and shared adult beverages. The only drawback to the location was a scarcity of taxicabs. Our numerous calls to different drivers went unanswered and the APPS were unreliable at best in our experience over a 10 day period of time. Laura went out of her way to call on our behalf. Without her intervention, we were out of luck. We befriended a few locals at nearby shops who told us the taxicab people do not answer the phone if the origin number is not local.

Gabriele is an expert in marketing and advertising and me in financial businness.
We love to travel and meet new people. We live in Florence, not too far from Oriuolo Street.

Why they chose this property

The location allowes you to visit Florence without any difficulties, enjoing to be near to all you "must" see in town!
The apartment lets you feel like to be at home: paintings on the wall are belonging to the family and some made by my husband's father.
So an important part of us, of our feeling and way to live is reflected in Oriuolo apartment.

What makes this property unique

The terrace offers you a quiete place where you will relax enjoing the sun and that special feeling that only in some hidden corner of Florence you can still find.
The new small LIFT( not suitable for wheellchair) is an important plus in the historic center of the city as well the terracce.
The location wich is unique near to the Duomo, museums, shopping area. etc.
