Cook dinner in our fully equipped kitchen, play some board games in the living area or hang out in the courtyard and enjoy some sun!´
Free WiFi is provided and breakfast can be added for 7 euros.
All sights are walking distance! No public transportation needed.
This room can get quite noisy in the morning, from 7am to 8 am, because the vendors of the market pass by our street, so we can provide earplugs for you!

IMPORTANT
From January 2024, there will be construction works going on in our building, because we are getting a new rooftop, a new facade and a lift. So, there won't be much sunlight coming in from the windows because of the scaffolding and there can be dust and noise in the building. We are sorry for any inconvenience and hope it will be done soon.

You will get keys to the apartment and to your private bedroom. You can use the kitchen, living area and courtyard whenever you want, but we ask your respect for our other guests and our neighbours.

STREET NOISE
Your bedroom faces a characteristic street in the center of Florence. In the early morning, there can be noise of the vendors carrying the market stands, but we can provide earplugs!

We live at about five minutes walking distance, so you can write us a message or call and we can pass by quickly. We are also happy to share a drink with you :)
