Each network and mattress are of orthopedic quality.

The two bathrooms are:
the green bathroom, equipped with a bath that can also be used for a shower.
The pink bathroom, equipped with a large shower with aids for disabled and / or elderly people.

The living area consists of two rooms in one and which are respectively: a dining room, with an oval table where up to 10 people can take a seat (stretching it to organize wonderful dinners with friends or family) and a lounge where you can spend happy moments, on a comfortable three-seater sofa also taking advantage of chairs and armchairs, in front of the TV or simply enjoying a coffee, a drink or a good read.
The living area is also surrounded by a tarrazzo (with table and chairs) overlooking the adjacent square.

A feeling of neighborhood in busy Florence, we were delighted with our stay. The location was a 20-30 minute walk or taxi ride to all sights, with a convenient grocery store right down the street.

Vacation In Florence

VRBO location was fantastic. Filippo was a wonderful host and most helpful. The apartment was clean and roomy with all the amenities necessary for our family's comfort. Easy walk to local restaurants, but not too close to tourist destinations. When in Florence again we would definitely stay here.

Charming Property & Fabulous Host

I highly recommend considering this spacious, charming apartment if you’re visiting Venice. The apartment is absolutely huge and could easily accommodate a large family or group traveling together. There are several great restaurants close by, a great little café just across the street, and easy access to public transportation. Filippo is an amazing host and can give you so many suggestions about what to see and do.

Famiy in Firenze

This apartment is lovely and well equipped. The traffic noise was noticeable in the roadside bedrooms but it didn't bother us that much. Filippo was very informative and helpful and gave us many good suggestions. Though the location was a bit removed from major tourist attractions, those who don't mind walking will find it satisfactory. We had a lovely stay.

We traveled with our elderly parents. The apartment was well equipped and decorated nicely. It is a busy street which we are not accustomed to and although the distances to city center are manageable for most people they were too long to walk for my parents. Fillipo was extremely helpful before our arrival and during our stay.

Gorgeous Apartment - Great Host

We are a group of 4 adults who stayed for 5 nights at Filippo’s beautiful apartment in the Santo Spirito area of Florence. When we arrived, Filippo gave us a detailed tour, explaining how everything in the apartment worked, what sights to see, favorite places to eat, nearby grocery stores, etc. He could not have been more helpful or accommodating- even arranging a taxi for our return to the airport. The apartment is huge, the bedrooms large and comfortable. Lovely furniture and art, and well-equipped for everything one would need. The balconies were an added bonus. We all agreed that if we’re ever back in Florence, we would definitely stay here again! A true taste of renaissance Italy. Thank you, Filippo!

Great apartment for a large family

Filippo met us at the apartment and provided many suggestions for restaurants, sightseeing spots and where to get public transportation. He even arranged taxis on two separate occasions. The apartment is so spacious that 6 adults and 3 teenagers fit very comfortably. We got some rain and appreciated umbrellas were available to use. When one of the bedrooms AC was not working well we contacted Filippo and he responded very quickly to provide assistance. It was great having a grocery store less than a block away. The building is quiet; on a busy street so you hear some traffic noise with windows open. Filippo is a great host! I would stay here again.

Excellent Home and Host

Filippo’s home and Filippo as a host combined to make this one of my best VRBO/vacation rental home experiences. The apartment is specious and homey, and has everything you need to spread out and get comfortable. Each on of the 3 bedrooms is spacious and two bathrooms make it easy for a family to get ready in the morning. Filippo is gracious and attentive. When we lost power for a little bit (entire building, no fault of the owner), Filippo responded immediately, looked into the situation, and followed up until it was resolved. Filippo provided pre-paid parking passes, that allowed us to park within a block for only €10/day. Great neighborhood, that’s busy and lively, with everything you need within a 5-10 minute walk, and the Duomo is about 20-25 minute walk. Just a great stay all around.

Beautiful, Spacious & Convenient

My family loved our stay at Residenza Oltrarno. Firstly the apartment was huge and gave us so much room to relax and spread out. Having two bathrooms is rare but so convenient since we were 3 adults and 2 children. My mother loved the outdoor seating areas and the convenience of a grocery store within walking distance. My husband had a few days of work and could easily use the living room for zoom meetings while we all gathered in the kitchen. The kids loved the playground across the street and felt super cool they got to go by themselves (we could see them from the balcony!) The old city of Florence is a pleasant 30 minute walk and it was really easy to get around. We saw so much on the way we started planning our next visit when we could spend more time exploring. Our host Fillipo gave us a wonderful intro to the apartment and the city. He pointed out so many attractions we wanted to see marking them on a map for us. By the end of our trip, our map was tattered and torn but we're keeping it for when we come back. The whole family enjoyed our stay and can't wait to come back.

Great size apartment that can accommodate multiple people/families and very clean. Host is excellent and provided a lot of information on the area and things to do in Florence and the surrounding area. Dining options are limited in the area surrounding the apartment but there are plenty across the river in Florence within a short taxi or bus ride. Apartment was fairly quiet even though there is a busy street right outside but parking is somewhat difficult if you rent a car as you must find an open parking space on the busy streets and must pay for the parking every day except for Sunday. If you do have a rental car and park, I highly recommend using the Easy Park app instead of paying at the metering stations. The app works in most places in Italy and Europe.

He provided lots of info about the apartment and Florence. He also sent many messages with even more information. Greatly appreciated!! An excellent market is across the street.

A spectacular property in a less crowded neighborhood but an easy walk to central Florence.

Our host Filippo was so responsive on internet before our trip and sorted any problems and requests we had. He gave us a thorough orientation to the apartment and filled a local map with key info. The apartment is in a lovely older building across from a small park and within short walk of good food and large supermarket. Iris about a 25 minute walk along the Arno River to the Centre of old Florence Can’t say enough good things about this place.Tim and Irene
