Comment: DOur stay in FLORENCE was fabulous and the big,comfortable,wonderful apartment added much to the experience...I was alittle apprehensive not really knowing what the apartment was really like(the net dose'nt really give you the true picture). It was awesome. It is located in the best part of FLORENCE, where the real people of FLORENCE live. Great places to eat within a few blocks, museums, shopping...damn i wish i was there! We also had our son and his friend with us and they did some traveling throughout EUROPE and thought the apartment was the best.(they are teenagers so i did'nt think they cared so much but they both loved the place)... Christina was so very helpful and down to earth, easy to deal with...We hope we have the good fortune of staying there in the future,we just simply loved it!

Comment: I really enjoyed my stay in this beautiful apartment. It was wonderful to stay away from the "touristy" part of town, but still be within walking distance to the museums,etc. The apt. seemed bigger to me than the pictures I saw on the net. The local restaurants were wonderful and it was easy to use the bus system to get around the city. Christina was so helpful with last minute museum tickets, cell phone rental and any other details that concerned me. She was so pleasant and willing to help. I had a great time in Florence and I would highly recommend this apt.

Comment: We are back in New Orleans! we all loved firenze and loved the apartment. It is magnifico!!! anyway, the location of the apartment really added to the trip. we felt like we were in a typical residential setting, away from the tourists. also we loved having our morning machiatto with Lola and Mauricio across the street. they are very nice, we intend to return to Firenze again for a longer time, perhaps 2 weeks, and will be contacting you for the apartment. grazie grazie ciao ciao, Barry and Marciann, Abbey and Ari

We stayed in both Chiesa 1and Chiesa 2. These apartments were perfect for us--family of 8. We highly recommend either of these units. They were spacious, clean, very well appointed and within walking distance to everything. We loved it. Thanks Christina!

A beautiful apartment - the photo on the website doesn't do it justice (at time of writing, it shows the very ordinary kitchen, whereas the rest is a beautifully renovated apartment). I can vouch for the comfort of the sofabed. Nice bathroom with a big shower and a nice big main bedroom; plenty of room to sit and eat at a proper dining room table. The distict was a perfect wandering distance from the heart of Florence. There is an excellent restaurant, recommended by Cristina, within 7-8 minutes' walk - Cristina can give details. Our only issue was noise from the very successful local bar. For heavy sleepers it's not a problem, but for light sleepers, earplugs and a grappa before bed are recommended. Everything was very efficient and well organised and I would definitely go back.

I've studied in Florence five years ago and decided to have a reunion with my friends i met in Florence, so i've rented the Chiesa 1and the Chiesa 2 Apartment. From my previous experience, these apartments are the most clean, spacious, comfortable and the location is perfect! We couldn't ask for a better accomodation in Florence. I was so happy that my friends loved the choice i've made and we decided that every time we return to Florence we will definately rent the same apartments. Grazie per tutto Cristina!!! Spero che ci vediamo presto! xxxxx

Very nice apartment. Good location. Crossing the Ponte Vecchio to get to the central museums always adds a special element to the walk. Apartment is near little shops of all kinds. Easy to shop for food and wine. I like the nearby market at Santo Spirito. The apartment kitchen has everything you need for cooking. Good roomy bet for us tall people. Last but not least, Cristina was a dear. Very helpful with any questions that I had.Good luck Cristina. Jim

Iil mio lavoro consiste nell'organizzare un evento in ogni suo aspetto: in produzione il lavoro è sottoposto ad un grande stress e ad un ritmo decisamente sostenuto, le cosa da fare sono tante e richedono tutte attenzione e cura. per questo motivo il supporto per la logistica della sig. cristina è stato prezioso ed il servizio flessibile e impeccabile. i nostri ospiti hanno potuto soggiornare in un ambiente raffinato e familiare che li accoglieva ogni sera al rientro dopo un'intensa giornata di lavoro garantendogli uno spazio in cui potersi realmente riposare e rigenerare, cosa rare da trovare in una qualsiasi stanza d'albergo.

I really loved my stay at Chiesa 1. The house is perfectly located, close to the city centre, but still in a local neighbourhood with few tourist. That gives a feel of real, florentine life. High standard, all amenities worked well, but still in a house from the 16th century with a nice feel of history about it. We will return to Florence some day, I´m convinced of that, and will be hoping to live in this great apartment again.

The apartment was much bigger then we expected even from the pictures. It was clean and spacious and has everything you might need (including pots, dishes, a refrigerator and a French press for coffee). It is a short and scenic walk from anywhere you would like to be in Florence and very close to the Palazo Pitti. It is a few minutes walk to many restaurants, bars and cafes. Christina is incredibly helpful with everything from directions and suggestions to replacing a light bulb. She is available whenever you need them. Cosimo was at our apartment to greet us when we arrived and he was helpful with our luggage and showing us around, Christina arrived a short while later and they could not have been more accommodating.
I have only wonderful things to say about our experience in this apartment and working with Christina. We will stay there the next time we are in Florence as well and have recommended it to all of our friends.

We found the spacious one-bedroom apartment, recently remodeled with a classic Tuscan design, to be very charming and comfortable The appliances and furnishings are all rather new and function very well. There was plenty of room for my wife, young daughter and myself. When I consider the great condition of the apartment, its ideal central location, and the reasonable price, I would say that we found ourselves a great deal. We have traveled throughout Italy quite a bit, staying in a number of hotels and apartment rentals - this, by far, was our best renting experience of all.

In comparison to other apartments we have rented in Paris and Rome, yours is by far the nicest: larger, cleaner, better furniture and wonderfull " atmosphere ". It is also well located. Of course the noise in the bar at the corner on fridays´and saturdays´nights were part of the fun and rarely unbearable. Nice support when needed from the part of the owners. Arthur

Thank you for your email regarding the books, but its not necessary to send us these books, we had finished reading them and thought someone else might enjoy reading them as well and therefore left them for another guest at the apartment. Yes we had a very nice stay in Florence, thank you for your hospitality, we will be returning as we love Florence and were very happy with the accommodation and will also be recommending your apartment to our friends.
Kind regards
Tricia Slattery.

My wife (Maria) and me werw very happy --first of all in Florence-- in that apartment, because it was very clean, and very nice, very confortable, inside, and so close to the center of Florence.And, of course, we were glad with the final price. We have recomended to some persons, who listen to us with great attention. I do not know what else I could say about, because I have a very nice regard from our stay in Florence, thanks --in a great part-- to you and your husband, for have confidence in us.Till soon --I hope-- receive the regards from Maria and me, Luis.
