It was really good that the owners were able to accommodate our early arrival, this meant we had no problems with our luggage and getting straight into our holiday.
The apartment is situated in an excellent location, 5 mins. walk from Santa Croce and only a little further to Palazzo della Signoria and all the sights and sounds of Florence.
In the apartment, even though it was February, it was quite cosy.
The rooftop terrace was excellent and we even had an afternoon in the sun eating and drinking ... which is what Italy is all about after all!
We left feeling that we'd had another "home from home" experience, courtesy of Summer's Leases and our break was made even easier when the owners, taking pity on 2 non-Italian speakers, booked a taxi to the airport for us.
PS free high speed internet access was fantastic!

We loved the apartment. The location was perfect for all of the city and the terrace was a real bonus. The facilities were very good and the lovely owners left a good welcome pack, more than enough for a drink and breakfast the next morning. We had a problem when a door key broke but it was sorted out with no fuss at all. The beds were most comfortable and the linen very good.
We loved the markets nearby and the small artisan shops etc. It was friendly, a taste of the “real” Florence.

It was a wonderful apartment, and we enjoyed our stay very
much. We only can recommend this apartment.
No problems at all getting to the apartment and we were warmly welcomed the minute we arrived.

The property was in an excellent location, and offered an excellent alternative to hotels in Florence. It was our third visit to Florence, and an excellent base.
Matthew Brown, Belfast.
The apartment was very comfortable - wonderful location with a perfect view over the city from the terrace. The local market is only less than five minutes away and has a wide selection of fresh food - meat, fish, cheeses, bread and fruit and vegetables.
Owners very friendly and helpful, providing a few provisions on arrival and carrying luggage up and down the stairs.
We had a wonderful holiday, thank you.
