The host, Tom, was amazingly hands-on, engaging, helpful and communicative. Able to help without recommendations for just about anything. Can’t say anything negative - you do need to be able to do stairs. ![Taken from near the property,](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/bfa6a65d-7a01-486f-9a2d-8b378d99371f-1760622352406.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Michael B.

Jul 26, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Perfect but suitable only if you are ok with stairs If you are ok with stairs (four flights of stairs to get from street into the apartment), you need to stop looking and book immediately - it is the perfect stay.The apartment is beautiful and exactly as shown - in a residential location just outside of the busy/noisy downtown, but only a 10min walk to downtown and a mere 2 min walk to Piazzale Michelangelo.The host (Tom) is even better than the already ideal place - he goes out of his way to help and pamper you but is not overbearing - just ideal.Don't overthink it - just book - highly recommend. ##### Jens N.

Super welcoming, responsive and helpful along the way. In a pinch, he helped us line up travel to Cinque Terre because the train workers happened to be on strike that day. Walk to everything Florence from this spot. Can't recommend this apartment enough if you want an authentic Florence getaway. ##### Graham D.

We loved everything about our stay in Florence. Tommaso’s house is absolutely beautiful, spacious, and clean - with incredible art throughout and an outdoor garden to relax. Tommaso was such a wonderful host - he recommended restaurants and helped us make reservations, left us wine, gave us free tickets to a museum, and was very flexible for our arrival and departure times. Our stay here was the best of our trip to Italy and made our visit to Florence our favorite of our trip. The location requires some walking (like everywhere in Italy) but nothing too far. It’s within about a mile walk of most sites. Highly recommend Tommaso’s house. ##### Langdon K. Stayed 3 nights in Mar 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jeff H.

It is exactly as described, very clean, very beautiful, a great location within Florence, and the sweetest, most dedicated hosts we have ever met! If you need anything while staying here, Tommaso and his family are here to help! They helped us book transportation, restaurants, and private tours as needed, and provided a wealth of information about the surrounding area. You will not be disappointed with your stay.

He greeted us when we arrived and meet us to say goodbye. The space was perfect for 3\. Well appointed kitchen. And the gem of the property is the outdoor garden. Walking distance to many nice restaurants or to the main section of the city. There is also a bus stop within 1 block. One of the best VRBO stays I've ever experienced. ##### Greg C.

Tommaso is an excellent host who provided many recommendations for places to visit and where to eat. The apartment is the best short term rental I have ever stayed in. Its very well decorated, centrally located and the garden area is beautiful, literally an oasis in the middle of the city. I can't recommend this property highly enough. I'm already planning a return trip for a longer stay. Thanks Tommaso, you were great help during our stay ##### Darcy H. Stayed 3 nights in Mar 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Erik F.

Tommas was by far the best host we have had. From meeting us at his perfect apartment to checking in via WhatsApp during our stay. He even booked us a car to the train station on our last day. The apartment is very well appointed and very comfortable. You are walking distance to everything you need, restaurants grocery store and all the sites of Florence. If you are considering Florence, book this place you will not be disappointed. ##### Erik F. Stayed 6 nights in Aug 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Kelsey M.

The kind VRBO owner, Tom met us to help us with our bags and show us around the apartment. The wall art in the apartment is amazing! And the space was perfect for our family of 5\. My daughter even said the futon was super comfortable. The large garden is a treat. The neighborhood was much quieter than most and there were a handful of cafes just down the street. Walking to the historical center was pretty quick and enjoyable. Tom also gave us recommendations for drivers, dining, things to do, etc. Overall, we loved our stay and would recommend this lovely apartment! ##### Kelsey M.

It is incredible in every way. We stayed with our daughter and her firmed and it was perfect. A 10-25 minute walk EVERYWHERE you would want to go.The home has all you need to start off on the right foot. Our host was OUTSTANDING. Best check-in/out experience and very accessible via WhatsApp.All the suggestions for dinners/sites were helpful.Hands down the inside was perfect but the OUTSIDE gardens were remarkable.Every morning we had our coffee there smelling the amazing floral scents from the terrace and listening to the birds.peaceful for sure. It was like being transported to another world/time.We WILL be coming back here.The Bardini gardens are down the street and the beautiful lookout fromPiazalle Michaelangelo is maybe 500 feet away. Do not skip these lesser known close treats of outdoor beauty. Thank you so much. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/0b1754ef-895c-4c5f-bff7-38e622d3574d-1749292962890.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/9187adf8-6df5-48e0-b6a9-aadaa7419f6d-1749292974806.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/5dd61f7d-21a6-4370-8995-072224c2ee13-1749292960436.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### T S.

Newly renovated and appointed with beautiful artwork, fixtures and furnishings. Perfectly set up for 2 couples + 1 kid with 2 large bedroom suites and a third partial bedroom with a futon and half bath. It’s located on the third floor with many steps so older visitors need to be aware. We stayed with our two teenage grandchildren who assisted us with luggage. But, with that as the only watch out, the location in Florence was excellent with all major sights and great restaurants within walking distance. Host Tomasso was “over the top” helpful with information and assistance. We stayed 3 days and are already planning a return stay. Highly recommend. ##### Thomas R.

This property is located just outside of the tourist-filled parts of Florence, but within walking distance of anything you will want to see. It has good restaurants right nearby, for a quick cappuccino in the morning, a quiet drink before turning in, or an easy meal if you dont want to go downtown.As you walk up to the first door to the apartment, you cannot imagine the beauty that awaits a couple floors up. Once you arrive at the apartment and see the well furnished and beautifully decorated rooms, you will make your way to the back where the garden awaits. Here you have your own private garden which is enclosed by the old city wall of ancient Florence. Tom has taken great care to make this private garden one of your favorite places to be in Florence.The apartment itself is only surpassed by the hospitality and availability of the host. He was not only responsive to our questions, he was proactive in getting us all the information we would need to make our time in Florence as easy as could be. He met us at the door to make sure we got in without any hindrances, showed us how to work the appliances, and was there when we left to see us off. He is, by far, the best host we have ever had.To sum up this review; definitely recommend! And if we have the opportunity to return, this will be where we stay again. ##### Corey H.

Jul 4, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Peaceful garden, modern amenities This apartment is a must for your next stay in Florence. It is exactly as described and pictured. Clean, modern, and quiet. My family of 5 (three generations aged 76-8) stayed comfortably in this property for four nights in June. The outdoor space was our favorite spot to relax with a glass of wine after walking all day. The apartment is located on the other side of the Arno, which we prefer, and therefore is more of a local's experience. There is a market for essential groceries and a bakery/cafe just ten steps away. The real hidden gem is the owner, Tomosso. He takes great pride in his property and is a gracious host. He met us at the apartment, gave a thorough tour, and saw us off on the morning we left. He made reservations for restaurants and taxis throughout our stay; we greatly appreciate his hospitality. We would absolutely return to this property in the future. ##### Emily B. Stayed 4 nights in Jun 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Lisa B. May 9, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Perfect home away from home in Florence The best experience we have ever had with a vacation rental! I am very picky so I do not say that lightly! Tomasso, the Host, truly wants you to feel like you're a guest in his home! We were two couples traveling together and felt like we each had our privacy. The apartment was spacious and beautifully designed. Everything was clean and comfortable. The kitchen was well stocked. He also provided detailed instructions and videos on how things worked. The garden was lovely and the perfect place to have a glass of wine after sightseeing all day! We also loved the area! The Oltrarno "the other side of the Arno" is the quieter side of the city but still very close to the city center, and has many restaurants and beautiful areas. We really enjoyed our stay and meeting Tomasso! He was kind, helpful, and responsive, before, during, and after our stay! We look forward to returning someday! ##### Lisa B.

I knew from the photos and the reviews that Tommaso and his apartment were going to be amazing and it (and he) did not disappoint !! My husband and daughter didn’t pay attention to my booking so they arrived and said “wow thank you for finding this paradise!!” The apartment is gorgeous down to every tiny detail- beds, bedding, kitchen, artwork, furniture, garden, laundry, bathrooms, showers. Everything was divine. Tommaso himself acts as your personal concierge for Florence and he takes great pleasure in helping you with activities, restaurants, and wknds out of the city. His personal touch with check in and check out is extraordinary. Done with such humor, kindness and elegance. He has become a dear friend and I consider it an honor and a blessing to have met him and had the opportunity to stay in his stunning apartment for our first month in Florence. Grazie mille a thousand times amico!!! ##### Rosalind D. Stayed 29 nights in Aug 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jeff C. Jun 17, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Awesome Family Vacation Our family of four, ( 2 parents, 2 teenagers), spent three nights in this really wonderful home. Our stay mirrored what everyone else has been saying about their stays here. The communication with Tommaso began before we arrived and continued throughout our stay. He enthusiastically greeted us and gave us a thorough tour of his family home and made us feel like we were now part of his family. He was always just a text away from us with answers to questions and recommendations about his city. Absolutely the perfect host! The home, as has been said in previous reviews, was immaculately clean, wonderfully furnished, and just the right size for a family. The bedrooms were very comfortable with their own, individual air conditioners and bathrooms which was perfect. The garden area was very beautiful and peaceful for a quiet morning coffee! An added bonus for a traveling family was the washer and dryer that we definitely put to use when we had time. We enjoyed the location as well. It was walking distance to shopping, sightseeing, and dining. It didn’t take long to get know our way around the neighborhood! Tommaso went to great lengths to make our stay enjoyable, including arranging for a taxi and personally coming to see us off when it came time to leave. He is the most gracious, friendly host you could find! Our only regret is that we could not stay longer! Thank you Tommaso!! ##### Jeff C.

Apr 30, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Wonderful oasis in Oltrarno, Florence We feel so lucky to have stayed all too briefly at Tomasso's gorgeous home in Florence for 2 nights! The place combines history, authenticity and location with modern comfort and convenience as well as beauty. The apartment is spacious, the beds very comfortable, the bathrooms are lovely, and the kitchen has everything. And then there is the garden, which is a jewel. It is the perfect place to relax before or after a day of exploring. Everything in Tomasso's home has clearly been chosen with care and impeccable taste. A couple of notes: the stairs to the master bedroom are quite steep, so may not be suited to little ones. The upstairs bedroom is loft style, so open to the living room below but still feels quite private. One of our children slept on the fold out futon just outside the downstairs bedroom. He said it was super comfortable. Tomasso was the consummate host and helped us with anything we might have needed help with as well as things we didn't realize we could use help with. He was super responsive before, during and after our stay, arranged parking for our car in a nearby garage, insisted on taking our luggage up the stairs, and booked a table for our dinner on the evening of our arrival and a lovely restaurant down the street. We could not have asked for better hospitality or a lovelier place to stay during our visit to Florence! ##### Michele K.
