It is strategically situated just 5 minutes walk from Piazza Santa Croce, and 15 minutes walk from Piazza Signoria and The Ufizzi. This accommodation has been restored (last renovation on november 2016) and converted into an adorable apartment, very well furnished and with modern facilities. The highlight is its private, sunny garden with dining table for 'al fresco' meals. Private parking is also available. There is a cosy living room , dining room at a veranda facing the garden, well equipped kitchen with everything you need to cook a delicious Tuscan meal, a master double room with fresco ceiling with in suite bathroom, a double bedroom with 2 single beds, a studio with 2 single beds plus one bathroom with shower. All bathrooms are made with Carrara marble. The market of Santo Ambrogio , the most characteristic food market in Florence is only at 5 minutes walk. It is a nice way to wake up in the morning, have a lazy breakfast with a true cappuccino or espresso and take a tour around fresh and exquisite season vegetables and fruits or local cheese just smelling the flower's newest aromas. All around, there are many restaurants and bars where local Fiorentini go for a quick coffee, lunch and dinner meals, with a vast selection of places running from wine bars, wooden oven pizzerias, local trattorie and famous restaurants. From there, you can also rent bikes to visit Florence everywhere you want to go! The famous FLEA MARKET of Florence is located in Piazza dei Ciompi at only 10 minutes walk from the apartment. It opens every day from 9 to 19.30\. If you're lucky enough to go there on the last Sunday of every month, the stalls extend into the surrounding streets. Here you can find furniture and objects from the past, prints, coins and jewellery. It's worth a trip if only to get insights on Italy's past through the artifacts displayed in these cluttered stalls. I live close by and available 24/7. ## Property amenities ### Internet - Available in the apartment: Free WiFi ### Parking and transport - Car not required - Parking on site ### Kitchen - Coffee/tea maker -

We loved the very personal apartment near Sant Ambrogio with its restaurants, cafes and various stores. Especially for those, who love cooking..., you'll be surprised to find a very well equipped and suitable kitchen. In a classic sense. And as there's the famous dayly market with a vast variety of best and fresh italian products - only 3 minutes from the apartment - cooking pleasure for you and your family or friens is guaranteed. We loved it: early in the morning to the market, then exploring Florence all day, then dinner- delight "at home" in the evening. Lookin' foreword to another stay in Florence. ##### Lars W.

The location is within a 15 to 20 minute walk of most attractions. It had a good size master bedroom with en-suite bathroom. Although the bathroom was dated and required some getting used to. The kitchen was small but functional. It had a stove, refrigerator with freezer, microwave and dishwasher. The other bedrooms were also adequate and the second bathroom had a walk-in shower which was great for older tourists. The dining room was glass enclosed and lead to a garden picnic table area. The washer was in the cellar and we did not use it. Christina met us at the apartment and went over all the eccentricities of the place. The use of certain keys for the doors and ways to lock up and open the doors and lights. The air conditioner in the master was not working very well but the rest of the air conditioners worked fine. We used taxis for in and out access without a problem. It’s close to restaurants and farmers market and grocery stores. ##### Donna W.

(She made sure we knew how to get into the doors, etc). We had Christina's contact info, but we didn't need any more assistance. My friends and I were very comfortable during our stay. It was nice for all of us to sit at the table outside in the early evening. It felt like a friend's home instead of a sterile rental property. It was easy to take a bus from the train station. It was a convenient location to the places we wanted to go. The pizza was great at Le Carceri on the next street over. ##### rob v.

She met us at the apartment and graciously explained how everything worked and shared wonderful recommendations about eating, places to visit, day trips, etc. The apartment is centrally located in the beautiful historic district and within walking distance to unlimited restaurants, attractions, supermarkets, shops, etc. Parking our car within the premises and the ability to do day trips was a big plus. The kitchen was very useful, the a/c worked perfectly, the bedrooms were quite spacious and nicely decorated. We felt right at home, and we thank Christina for being an exceptional hostess - all of her recommendations were a big hit and they contributed to our enjoyment of Florence. WE'LL BBACK! ##### Michael S.

Close to great restaurants, attractions, and bus stop. It is less than 30min walk to the train station, which is important as it is difficult to reserve or stop a taxi. The rooms are very spacious and comfortable. Took off one star for the following reasons: 1) There was some smell like wet carpet in the home, although there was no carpet in the home. 2) The road noise and the noise from the building door opening and closing was really loud. If you are light sleeper this can be an issue and cannot be avoided as the apartment is on the ground floor. ##### Preeti C. Stayed 3 nights in Sep 2023 ---
