Great stay

We enjoyed our stay at Under the Roof of Sofia. Very convenient to the sites of Florence as well as the train station. The place was very clean and comfortable. Was on the third floor with no elevator, so may be an issue for some. Would stay there again.

The location was great close to everything. It was very clean and our family enjoyed it. The apartment is very well layed out & the kitchen is very well equipped. Save some energy at the end of the day for the stairs.
