Lots of places to stay while in Florence, but few - if any - can top Silvia’s “Basket of Angels”. This apartment is exactly as advertised. Perfect location. Super comfortable bedrooms. Terrific views. Silvia was fantastic. Part of our company arrived early in the morning and Silvia arranged to check them in several hours early. Very much appreciated Silvia…, thank you!!! We would certainly stay here again, and highly recommend this apartment for your stay in Florence.

The apartment was beautiful, clean, and very spacious. The view from the bedroom window is amazing. The neighborhood was quiet but close to great food and the center of the city (we were able to walk everywhere). Communication with the owner was very easy and she was very nice to help us get settled in on the evening of our arrival. We would definitely stay here again if we had the opportunity.

Stayed nine nights in this apartment and was perfect in every way. I've been to Florence many times and prefer staying in the Oltrarno district. The locale of the apartment is ideal as you have great Trattoria's, cafes, bakeries, delis, etc all within 5 minutes on foot. I never took a cab (except airport transfer) on this visit and was in and around Florence city every day, the walk along the Arno is easy and beautiful as you head to or back from the "city". It's really an exaggeration to say city as, again, everything is within walking distance if you so choose. The host Silvia was very helpful and provided great communication and easy check in. The property is very clean and bright with large windows and great views, very well equipped. As a rental property owner myself, I was pleased with every aspect of the stay. I highly recommend!

Lovely accommodation. We enjoyed our stay.

Paulo was absolutely wonderful when we checked in and left a map of the city with great recommendations of where to eat/visit. A beautiful, cozy apartment ideally located close to the river and walking distance from many wonderful locations. Highly recommend for your stay in Florence.

Basket of the Angels is an amazing apartment, perfect for traveling with family as the 2 additional bedrooms are off the main hallway and up their own stairwells making them very private. It was the perfect location and a wonderful property.

I can’t say enough about this amazing apartment in Florence. The views, the size, the amenities, the hosts, all of it. If you are thinking of staying in a place, look no further!

Lots of stairs, but the views and location are more than worth it!

Our family really enjoyed this setting. The apartment accommodated all 5 of us comfortably. Air conditioning a plus. Dining and living rooms spacious. Great views of Florence from picture windows in the apartment. Easy to walk to Arno river and historic Florence area . Supermarket close by. Washing machine was an advantage to us. Folding drying rack would be helpful in addition to window clothing drying lines. Kitchen small but contained all the essentials. Many steps to climb to the top floor but the view from windows are worth it.

The accommodation was good. Central to Florence. Had a nice stay.

Amazing property with great location to restaurants and bars that are really authentic Italian, everything was walkable from this area.

Clean and very convenient area!

The apartment is lovely. Stay worked out great Thank You

My family really enjoyed this home and it’s beautiful patio. We were a party of 6 and it suited us well. The location was perfect for walking to all of our sight seeing too!

Beautiful place with an awesome view. Very clean and an great location. We would definitely recommend it.

We loved it! The location was perfect, away from the craziness but a short walk to the heart of the city. The apartment was spacious and clean. We most certainly will return if back in Florence. Highly recommend it!

This apartment is huge with beautiful views of Florence's historic architecture at every window of the unit. It was steps away from the river, close to all the important sites, and an easy walk from the train station. Easy and timely check-in with gracious hosts. An easy recommendation! Thank you!

Paolo met us on the street to bring us to the property. After the pre warned flights of steps (not so bad after all as you go up and down maybe once or twice a day and can work off the pasta and gelato) we were toured around this great rental property. Perfect for our family of 4 !! two separate bedrooms up separate flights of stairs, one for each daughter in their 20's and gorgeous area to sleep (not really a bedroom but loved it!) on the main floor. Kitchen not great for cooking but why the heck would you cook in Florence anyhow LOL Just used it to store our vino and appetizer foods we bought ....otherwise we were out and about from morning til bedtime pretty much. Views were amazing and comfort and style were perfect. I would stay here again for sure !!! Location was perfect. the only thing I would have loved were laundry machine instructions in English LOL and the scented reed/diffuser at the front entrance was too strong. Need a much lighter pleasant scent. Wondered what smell it might be covering up LOL If you have scent sensitivities ask them to remove before. No biggie....again you will be rarely there in the apartment but when you are YOU WILL LOVE EVERY MINUTE....more spacious than you can imagine !!!

The location and apartment was 10! A romantic place for young people. Love the place and cleanliness. Maurizio

We know Firenze well, and we’re delighted with this comfortable relaxing apartment. It was well appointed and very relaxing, the views were stupendous and it felt as it was: totally old yet perfectly current. The stairs might frighten a lot of people but we only needed to carry cases up once, so were very happy in our eyrie. We will definitely return and recommend, as it is well located yet out of the way….

We had a wonderful time here! It felt spacious, had all the amenities we needed, and was in a great location.

Nice apartment in great location

Great location! Everything as advertised!

Very nice apartment located in a very lovely area (restaurants and small stores ) very close to all sites ( 15 minutes walk maximum) Great furniture and view !

The apartment is in a sweet neighborhood with lots of charming little shops and eateries. An easy walk to all the “must sees” in Florence. The agent is more beautiful than the photos. The view is spectacular and we enjoyed every minute of our time there Can’t wait to go back! Ciao!

Great location. We really enjoyed the neighbourhood. Close to lots of restaurants and shopping. We really enjoyed the view of the Duomo.

A fantastic apartment with all mod cons. Really comfortable stay, with air con in all rooms. Amazing view of the Cestello Church Dome. Lovely district only a ten minute walk to the centre of Florence and vibrant night life with welcoming locals in bars and restaurants.

We had an amazing time in Florence at Silvia's apartment. The location was perfect- we were able to walk everywhere we needed to go. The apartment was just perfect for our family of 5- large, cool and well appointed. Thank you Silvia for a perfect stay in Florence.

The apartment was great and had everything (other than an elevator) and the only time it was a struggle was with luggage so pack light. The beds were very comfortable, lots of great restaurants close by in quaint neighborhood. We walked to the heart of Florence both mornings which took about 15-20 min. It was also very quiet with great views. You dont need a car and we had to struggle to find a garage so book ahead as it may be cheaper. Paolo was great to work with.

We had a great stay in this lovely property with great views and excellent restaurants right nearby.

Our stay at Silvia's apartment was wonderful. It's large and was both comfortable and convenient for five of us as we toured Florence. The apartment was modern and comfortable in an ancient and amazing city! Thanks to Paola and Silvia for making our stay so easy!

We loved our stay at Oltrarno. The apartment is absolutely beautiful. The building is in a wonderful part of town that is very walkable to every thing you want to see. It is also very quiet and the views from every window are amazing. All the windows open too, which is very nice. We were two couples and we all had a great time.
