This apartment had an ideal location. It was very comfortable for my wife, adult daughter, and myself. The air conditioning was great during a heat wave in Florence. The outside terrace was a delight in the early evening hours. We very much appreciated the bowl of fruit and bottle of wine at our arrival. Having a lift in the building was a great benefit.

Very charming and clean. Perfect location between the duomo and palazzo vecchio. The view from the roof is breathtaking.
The lisitng says there is laundry available, however, there is not a washer or dryer. There is an iron.

The apt was clean, well stocked, inviting and updated as shown in the pictures. We were warmly greeted and given instructions for using the apt. A lovely plate of fruit and a bottle of wine was waiting for us. Very thoughtful. The location was wonderful, a block from the Duomo and the view from the roof terrace was amazing.
Plenty of room for 4 adults. A 5 star experience.

Location can't be beat! Right in the heart of everything. Coffee shops just downstairs. The unit was very nice! There's not as much of a view from within the apartment, however the rooftop which is just a flight of stairs away had a great view! Ale our check-in host was fantastic...very kind.

Look no further! This apartment is wonderful and a great location. Exceptionally clean with full kitchen and two spacious bedrooms and bathrooms. The rooftop is an added bonus overlooking the Duomo. We felt very safe and we were well taken care of. Would definitely stay here again.

Visiting Italy for the 1st time. This lovely apartment equipped with everything you need. Spacious, clean and the view from the shared terrace was imaginable. We walked everywhere, it's only 10-15 or less to most attractions, even from the train station. Alessandra was very sweet & accommodating. The owner always responded promptly to my questions. We cooked simple meal 3 times during our stay. If you need extra space, this place is a rare find with a lift to 6th floor. It was a treat to stay here as the 1st leg of our 2 week travels in Italy. Thank you!

Great place but address not easy to locate . No one was there to check us in & we couldn't locate the check in spot. Called & the lady who came was very nice but had limited English. There was fresh fruit and wine waiting for us. The place was very clean. The view from the rooftop terrace was spectacular. The 4 star was because of the checkin after hours of flying

What a great place to stay in the heart of Florence, the roof deck was amazing, and the unit was clean and well laid out, can't wait to go back!

The apartment was perfect for our family and the location was great! Close to the stores and restaurants. The area does get pretty busy and was a little noisy at night but still would highly recommend. Had everything we needed and more! We can't wait to go back!

Bright two bedroom apartment in a great location, just a short walk to the Cathedral. The kitchen and living space was small, but just what was needed for 3 adults. Appreciated the lovely roof top terrace. The two bathrooms were a good size with stand up showers - they were kind enough to leave soaps, a good amount of towels and other little things that made the stay welcome. Be aware that there is an additional charge for each person over two staying in the apartment. We were three people in a two bedroom apartment and had to pay an extra amount for the third person.

This apartment was super nice and clean and was well equipped with everything we needed. The location is perfect! We would definitely stay here again. The host was very kind and helpful with our stay. 5 stars!!

The room was perfectly prepared with wine and fresh fruit. The host was pleasant, informative, and professional. The view of Florence from the shared roof access was worth twice what we paid. Don’t wait. Book it.

We had a wonderful stay - very walkable and close to everything. We were able to drop our luggage off early. Our host was wonderful and even left us a bottle of wine and basket of fruit. The rooftop is really nice, the air conditioning worked great, the building was safe and secure. Highly recommend.

Beautiful air-conditioned apartment close to the Duomo and walkable to many sites including the Academia and Uffuzi Museums. Easy trip from train station by taxi. AllēSandra met us and gave a thorough introduction and tour. Lovely rooftop terrace with gorgeous evening views of the city where we enjoyed a glass of wine. Restaurants nearby. Would not hesitate to stay again.

The hosts were so lovely providing wine, water and fruit upon our delayed arrival. The apartment is very clean, secure and just as the photos. The a/c was appreciated after a day in the heat. The bed was very comfortable. The shared terrace was a haven in the evenings with glorious views. The location is within walking distance to everything we wanted to visit (gardens, museums, tram to airport, duomo, shopping) and was very easy to navigate to and from. Many great restaurants close by. I would highly recommend and return.

This apartment is very charming and in a great location, within very short walking distance to restaurants and shops (some right across the street). We were also able to walk to the top attractions in Florence in 10 - 15 minutes. And the rooftop terrace is just as beautiful as the pictures!
The communication leading up to the visit was wonderful, and the checkin process was very smooth. Francesca met us at the apartment and walked us through everything we needed. They had a bottle of wine, a bowl of fresh fruit, and a large bottle of much-needed cold water for us. Francesca was also available to us with any questions we had throughout the stay, related to the apartment itself and also some other general Florence questions we had.
Our only two (minor) complaints would be (1) the listing showed the apartment having a washing machine, but it didn't, and (2) the air conditioning didn't cool as much as we would have liked on such hot days. (Please note that the property manager is trying to work with VRBO to update the listing about the washing machine, but we didn't know that at the time of booking).
Overall, a lovely apartment in a lovely area of a lovely city.

Consider yourself the luckiest if you can rent this apartment. Everything is a perfect 10 in every single way!!!

A beautiful clean place within walking distance of everything we wanted to do in Florence. The building had an elevator which is a luxury in these older cities. They provided coffee machine WITH multiple types of coffee in the fully equipped kitchen with everything a person might need. Master bedroom bed was very comfortable too. View from upstairs terrace is fabulous.
Might want to take some kind of white noice machine if you are sensitive to bells ringing at 7 am.
There is no washer dryer though the description listed ons. We were in the middle of a 15 day trip so needed to wash a few things but we improvised and used our travel clothes line to dry them.
I cannot say enough good things about the great communication with the owner and property management!! Always quick response.

This property is absolutely immaculate in every sense. It's clean, comfortable and close to all the beautiful and amazing Florence has to offer. Communication with the host was excellent. Upon arrival we were greeted by the lovely Alessandra whom showed us all around the property and the lovely terrace overlooking the dome. They even left for us a basket of fruits and wine! It was perfection. Highly recommend this property, we can't wait to come back to it.

Great condo in a great location! Everything we needed was offered. Cute decor and we felt at home. Roof top balcony was amazing! Great views from our windows and balcony! Location was walking distance from everything. It was a little noisy at night, so bring your earplugs if your a light sleeper. We would definitely book again!

Perfect location to all the sights in Florence!

My husband and I, along with our 27 year old son, thoroughly enjoyed our seven-night stay at this well-appointed, comfortable and convenient “home away from home”. We were warmly greeted by Alessandra, who oriented us to the apartment and the neighborhood, and checked up on us twice during our stay. (The wine and fruit was a welcome touch after a long trip!) Despite a few cold and rainy days, we always felt warm and cozy after returning from a long day of walking and taking in the sights. Fortunately we had a few lovely evenings to take in the stunning view of Florence from the rooftop with a glass of wine! Having a well-equipped kitchen allowed us to have breakfast and make one or two dinners at home. The bedrooms and bathrooms were very comfortable and spacious. The location was perfect and we were never more than a 20 minute walk to everything we wanted to do and see. Well done Crescenzo!

I booked the apartment for my daughter and boyfriend as we were also traveling Europe. We would meet up with them for one day and then go to Sicily, which is why I booked the 2 bedroom apartment. Owner was very accommodating with us staying at the apartment without extra charge for the one night and owner was very accommodating on the early arrival. The roof deck is really a nice place for an early evening cocktail hour with superb views of Florence and the Duomo. The Apartment has adequate living room and kitchen and the bedrooms/baths ate excellent. Bed comfort also very good. This is a 5 star rental in the perfect location.

We loved our stay in Florence! This trip was originally planned for October of 2020. Crescenzo was extremely flexible allowing us to postpone to 2021, then again to 2022. Culla di Dane was worth the wait! Communication leading up to the trip was very clear, and Allesandra was extremely helpful at check in and for any question during the week. This is a great, central location to roam Florence. Take advandage of the sunsets on the rooftop, as well as the beautiful views day or night.

My daughters and I spent 5 glorious days at La Culla di Dante which was steps away from the Duomo! The apartment was immaculate and beautifully furnished. Allessandra was sweet and friendly and always available if needed. The rooftop view of the Duomo and city landscape was Magestic where we were able to enjoy the view with some nice Italian wine provided by Host. Would definitely stay there again on our next visit to Florence.
5.0
We spent the last 5 days in Florence and it was fantastic. The apartment cannot be placed in a better location, with access to museums, restaurants, garden's you name it all in close walking proximity. The roof top patio is a great place to unwind after a full day of sightseeing. The list of restaurants that were given, each one out did the other. The Litani brothers restaurants get our top rating. Of course Alessandra was awesome and full of information and always with a smile.
