Una rivelazione
La proprietaria si è dimostrata disponibile fin da subito a rispondere ad ogni mia domanda, appena arrivate siamo state accolte da Antonella e suo marito che si sono assicurati di mostrarci tutti i confort dell’appartamento e di indirizzarci verso le principali attrazioni fiorentine che non potevamo assolutamente non vedere. L’appartamento di per se era pulito e confortevole anche se qualche volta faceva un po’ freddo. Raccomando vivamente anche per la posizione perché è davvero a due passi dal centro. L’esperienza nel complessivo è stata meravigliosa.

An Oasis!
Quite simply, we loved our stay this apartment. It was magical staying in a building with so much history. The apartment was beautiful and had all the modern conveniences. The garden was enchanting- an oasis of calm that allowed us to decompress from the bustle of tourists in Florence. A glass of wine at night, looking at the illuminated Sphinx, was the perfect end to every day. Our hosts were very helpful and attentive, with great recommendations for restaurants and activities. The location is within easy walking distance of everything you want to see while visiting Florence. Can’t wait to stay here again!

Stepping back in time.
The Sphinx of The Secret Garden was beautiful! It was in a great location on a street within close proximity to museums, stores, center of town, and to so much of the hustle and bustle of the going ons of locals and tourists as well. Once stepping through the large medieval doors, there was absolute serenity. Our room was clean, tastefully done with old and new elements. Our doors opened up to the garden and we yet again found ourself back in a different era. Old garden with a very old Wisteria vine climbing up the very high walls. It was completely private and all ours. Thatnk you Stephano all your help!

Was a wonderful location and the property owner Stefan was great! He spent some time with us explaining attractions, markets, restaurants etc was very informative and attentive. Was a great location and within walking distance to everything we wanted to see. We had a bit of trouble finding the location thanks to an issue with google maps but that wasn’t anything to do with this property! Thank you so much!

Absolutely wonderful in every way! Location was perfect-minutes from everything. Stefano gave us advice on things to do we would never have known about. The bed was much larger than we thought and very comfortable. This centuries old building was updated to everything we needed. Absolutely nothing to criticize. Will def go back/ recommend to friends.

We are in Italy celebrating our 50th wedding anniversary!
We totally enjoyed staying at this Duomo studio! The secret garden was a romantic added touch . It was in a convenient location, no stairs to climb and most importantly for me it was spotless with a very comfortable bed!!! We were shown the amazing Italian hospitality. We were given a bowl of fruit and bottle of Prosecco on arrival! Wow there are not enough words to say thank you for making this trip so memorable!

Perfect oasis
From booking, the communication from the owner Antonella was so good. The apartment itself was perfect for us and location couldn’t have been better. We were able to check in early which was a huge plus and managed to converse in Spanish with the lovely Mercedes. Our only one thing was that the internet appeared to drop out after a couple of days. But apart from that it was a perfect stay!

A magical oasis of peace and quiet in one of the most vibrant cities in Europe.
This property is simply gorgeous. You step off the bustling streets of Florence straight into an amazingly peaceful, tranquil, not to mention, beautiful setting. The apartment is well equipped with a very comfortable bed and clever use of space to incorporate a small, but perfectly functional kitchenette. The centrepiece however, is the stunning garden, with some beautiful plants and an impressive ‘sphynx’ statue as the centrepiece. This is the perfect location and space from which to explore the incredible city of Florence - without question one of the most stunningly beautiful cities in the world. The owner, Antonella is brilliant at responding quickly to any questions and her daughter, Matilde went out of her way to spend time explaining the local area and giving handy recommendations for great places to eat. You must go to the gelateria - Vivolo (just around the corner from the apartment). We did so on Matilde’s recommendation and went back again the next day! Everyone should visit Florence at least once and if you do, do yourself a favour and stay here. It’s perfect. Thank you so much to Antonella and Matilde for giving us such a memorable holiday. We can’t wait to return!

Stefano and Antonella were amazing hosts with excellent suggestions and a beautiful garden! There is even an historic wine window in the building! Right in the historic center and close to everything you want to see. I would recommend this place to anyone visiting Firenze! We met so many good people on the same street that you can’t go wrong staying here. Make sure to go to De Gus right down the street and tell them Sheldon and Kerry from Detroit say Caio!

Fantastic property
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in Antonella and Stefano’s property. Although small, it has everything you need for a short stay in Florence with the added bonus of the amazing garden. It was wonderful to close the front door on the somewhat overwhelming hustle and bustle of the Firenze streets and enter an oasis of calm. It is perfectly situated for visiting all the well known sights as well as some lesser known ones and has a myriad of restaurants nearby. Antonella and Stefano were great to work with and all Stefano’s recommendations for restaurants were spot on.

Mi è piaciuto: Pulizia, servizi, condizioni e dotazioni della struttura
I start my review with the hosts, Antonella and Stefano. Both are among the warmest people you can imagine. I felt like I've known them forever and it's obvious that the well-being of their guests is their priority, not money. When we arrived we were welcomed with prosecco, a bottle of cold water and strawberries 😃. Everything was explained to us (air conditioning, etc.) and we were given several suggestions starting with restaurants, supermarkets, sightseeing activities as well as places to go in case of emergencies. Actually, it would not be necessary to buy a guidebook. The fact that we started our excursions from the apartment with this insane garden in the beautifully restored historic building was the cherry on top. Rather than describe, please look at the pictures, even if you can't breathe the whiff of history that surrounds you there. We traveled to Florence to discover the city's cultural treasures - fortunately, we discovered this lovely place with a private, beautiful garden (one of the plants is even estimated to be over 100 years old). Located very central, everything is within walking distance and supermarket and breakfast bar nearby.The kitchenette including refrigerator are a plus but keep in mind that when cooking on a vacation in Italy, you miss the delicious food at every turn Fortunately, it was warm and the air conditioning worked well. We love this place. Antonella e Stefano, mille grazie por la vostra ospitalità !!! Hope to come back soon.

Awesome stay in an awesome location.
We had a great five days here. Easy contact with the hosts, who greeted us in person, and even helped us find transportation to the airport at the end of the stay. A perfect location in terms of access to all the key sites in downtown Florence, with the added bonus of a private garden in the middle of the city. Just watch out for the hungry mosquitoes. All in all, a great spot for feeling like a local as a tourist. Highly recommended.

An wonderful lodging expereince with history attached to it. Antonella and Stefano are the the perfect host and deserve more than five stars. They go beyond and above to make sure we had a comfortable stay. Location is perfect to explore Florence and we appreciated the details that the welcome kit that was provided. Very useful tips especially the walks and restaurant reviews. The recommended tour company to Sienna, Pisa and San Gimignano was perfect. Highly recommend the studio for your future trip to Florence.

zentrale Wohnung mit schönes Terrasse in ruhigem Innenhof
Die Wohnung ist klein und besteht neben dem Bad aus einem Zimmer, was noch einmal mit einer halben Wand zu einer Miniküchenzeile mit einer Herdplatte abgeteilt ist. Die Wohnung ist schön eingerichtet, leider ist sie aber relativ dunkel, da wenig Licht in die Wohnung kommt, so dass man fast immer Lampen zur Beleuchtung benötigt. Das große Plus ist der ruhige Innenhof mit der Terrasse. Die Sonne ist im April am frühen Nachmittag leider schon verschwunden, was im Hochsommer sicher als vorteilhaft wahrgenommen wird. Die Wohnung bleibt durch die dicken Wände sicher auch im Sommer angenehm kühl. Ein weiteres Plus ist die sehr zentrale Lage, was allerdings am Wochenende dazu führt, dass bis tief in die Nacht herein laute Musik zu hören ist. In der Woche ist es dort aber sehr ruhig. Der Vermieter ist eine sehr nette Person, die viele Tipps gibt und einen sehr schönen Empfang mit Obst und Getränken bereitet hat. Als Tipp: Zum Kochen wäre ein Schneidemesser hilfreich. Insgesamt empfehlenswert!

Beautiful studio apartment with private courtyard in lively part of Florence!
Absolutely stunning apartment conveniently located near plenty of shops, restaurants, sights, and entertainment. We had mostly a lovely stay at this place with the exception of Saturday night where we were kept up until 5am with NONSTOP bass thumping and loud party goers. It sounded like there was a full on dance club next door and it was near impossible to get any sleep until it finally stopped. Cleaning fees + security deposit were not disclosed in the listing before booking and I found it strange that we were asked via email to come with those fees in cash and not paid through the VRBO app. Besides those issues, you can't ask for more. This place is gorgeous and the private courtyard is jaw dropping. I would 100% stay here again, but not on the weekends!

Enchanted Retreat in Florence
From our first interaction with our hosts, we were charmed and felt welcome. We arrived on a busy, rainy Sunday and were pleasantly surprised to feel that we had truly left the noise of the city and entered a private place with such rich history. Our hosts gave wonderful notes of sites to see and amazing places to eat while in Firenze, giving us a truly authentic experience of this Renaissance city. We had everything we needed and more in this lovely home away from. We would definitely stay here again

*Bookers beware!* Property not as advertised; NO AC during the majority of stay.
Our stay was not as expected. Communication with owner was polite; however when we inquired (day 2 of 8)about the AC, we were told “AC is turned off at the end of October.” It was still quite warm during our stay at the end of October and we were unable to open doors to the garden area bc of the mosquitos and bugs coming in. The exterior garden - which we had access to was buggy. Our bath towels were not able dry sufficiently due to humidity in room. We had difficulty sleeping in the room with lack of air flow. I contacted VRBO after the forth night via chat. They encouraged me to contact owner again. I did. Asked owner for a fan. Owner agreed to bring remote control for AC. It took another 24 hours to get the remote control. So, we went a total of 5 days without AC. The property was advertised as having AC. Bookers beware! Owner is super nice. Do not make the mistakes we did. Communicate ONLY via VRBO platform with her. DO NOT communicate via email or what’s app. Again, our stay was not as expected. Sleeping in a hot/stagnant air room was uncomfortable. I can go on and on here about other conditions- hard bed, thin pillows. The owner will likely have excuses. Read back in other reviews and you will find at least one other unfavorable review. Bookers beware!

Risposta di VrboOwner, il giorno 5 dic 2022
Dear Mrs, I'm sorry I didn't have the pleasure of meeting you personally and I thank you for your review definitely “out of the choir”. In the days of late October early November in which you stayed, there was an ideal climate (25/26 degrees) so when conditions permit, we can try to live without AC and respect our planet. But, given that the perception of heat is absolutely personal, we complied with her request and reactivated the A/C. I have a good habit of replying to messages sent to me on WA too, like you sent me first. I replied on the VRBO platform and forwarded the emails with all the information and tips about the city, I just do my job conscientiously. Your kindness really impressed me during the booking process (thank you again for the gifts you would have liked to bring me, and for the Halloween sweets you brought me!). It was a real pity, however, that during your entire stay you never expressed the uneasiness and dissatisfaction you wrote about. I would have appreciated if you had told me about it, it would have given me the opportunity to propose another accommodation to you. However, your review is so hyperbolically negative as to conceal an excessive dissatisfaction and anger…perhaps it depends on the refund of the stay, which you requested after departure?

Beauty, history, and comfort all in one place
From our very first communication Antonella and Stefano were so kind and welcoming. The apartment is an absolute gem. The location is perfect. The access to the beautiful private garden is a very special experience to have in the middle of historic Florence. The history of the building brought a special character to our stay there. When we arrived Stefano greeted us, and provided a wealth of information for navigating the neighborhood, including great restaurant recommendations. The fruit and Prosecco were a delightful way to start our visit. The apartment is beautiful and comfortable. We enjoyed making our coffee in the morning and sitting in the garden. The hosts were extremely communicative and helpful. We just can’t say enough about how much we loved our stay.

Fabulous Location!
Super cute little apartment; perfect for a few nights stay! Excellent location in the middle of everything but so quiet on the courtside, it's hard to believe you're surrounded by the hustle and bustle going on outside. A little tough finding it as we didn't realize residential address numbers are in blue (or black) while business addresses are red. Google maps took me to the red address which was actually a block too far...took about 10 minutes to figure that out while the host was patiently waiting for us. Would certainly stay here again!

Perfect location in the heart of Florence, with the kindest hosts and excellent recommendations. The room is beautifully decorated and garden private and welcoming.

Great location. Well kept and clean with recent upgrades. Great for early risers, as there is a bed and breakfast up stairs that serves their guest early.

Beautiful experience!
Location is perfect - in the heart of Florence. Easy to get around on foot and felt safe walking at night. Grocery market less than a .25 mile to grab snacks, water, etc. Unit itself is perfect size for 2 people, very clean and spacious for travel. The courtyard is the dead giveaway to stay here. The 300 year old Wisteria growing in the back corner is breathtaking! Stefano was an awesome host taking the time to give us the run down on everything, where to eat, what to see. We ping him from the outside speaker to meet us an hour early and it wasn’t a problem. He returned our deposit with no issues. Only complaint which was completely out of Stefano’s control was the dance party that went on until 4am. I didn’t sleep great but the beauty of Florence made everything better! Grazie!

A Bit of Paradise in Florence
As soon as I saw the photos of the Sphinx in the garden I knew I wanted to stay there. The property was exactly as it appears on the VRBO website, but the magic of the garden exceeded any photos. I spent many hours there relaxing after the frenzy of the tourist season. The location of the property was excellent . The street it is on is charming and almost always in the shade, making it a relief to walk home. Cafes, shops, and bars abound, and the owners have made lists of all their favorites, so you can't go wrong. All of the major sites were within an easy walking distance. The owners were wonderful in their communications, making the booking process very easy. They were also extremely kind and helpful, for which I am very grateful.
