The apartment was nice and clean and bright, in the authentic part of Florence. (Note there are about 25 steps up to the apartment.) We loved the location with bus stops nearby, and grocery store and cafe bar directly across the street where we had morning cappuccinos and purchased our bus tickets for the day. Filippo was awesome, really helpful in showing us on a map all the points of interest to us. Also I appreciated his quick response to any questions we texted him about (not to mention he ordered taxis for us when needed).

Our stay at Filippo's apartment was excellent. Where do I begin? To start, the welcome, checkin and information provided went above and beyond. Filippo is extremely friendly, responsive throughout our stay and so helpful. The apartment itself is huge (we rented the entire space, but I think you can just book one of the 3 rooms if you wish). Booking the entire aprtment felt like home with a kitchen, full separate dining and living room with a lovely wrap around balcony that overlooks the street and park across. It is perfect for a group or family. The bedrooms, bathrooms and living spaces were all clean and as a group of women, we felt super safe here. The location is ideal too with a big grocery a 2 minute walk away, a cafe across the street and many bus lines no more than 5 minute walk to get you anywhere in Florence. I can't say enough about the Residenza Oltrarno. We would absolutely stay here again. Grazie mille Filippo!

Our host was great at sharing lots of activities and links of things to do and places to see around the city! He helped to book us taxis the day of our departure, which was so wonderful. We had a great meal at a small restaurant nearby the night before we left. It is a bit of a walk to get into the city, but the balcony make it worth our while to stay outside the hustle and bustle!

He makes many suggestions which help for first time travelers. Def recommend

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.

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

Our host was so helpful and friendly. He made special accommodations to meet our group as we arrived at different times. He spent a lot of time giving us recommendations to visit the city.

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 work trip!

Filippo was am amazing host. We traveled with a group of women for work and fun. Filippo helped us call cabs throughout our trip via a messages on whats app and gaves us tons of local stores, cafes to get food etc. The apartment is huge. Great for a large group. AC in the living room is not too cold but in Florence this is normal in the summer. AC is the bedrooms was great. Also the apartment is a little far from the center so you must take car, train or bus to get to the center of Florence. On a nice Spring day you can walk if you like walking:) safe beautiful neighborhood. Thank you Filippo!

This is a great value place. The location is perfect. It is close to everything but in a quiet, easy to access spot. There is a supermarket extremely close and You can easily walk or take the bus everywhere. Filippo, the owner, is a great communicator and very supportive for anything you might need with respect to your stay or information about Florence. It was terrific for our family group of nine. Plenty of room and a great dining room table where we had a delicious homemade meal acquired from the supermarket. We also enjoyed the best pizza ever from a recommendation Filippo gave us for our second dinner. This is a terrific place if you're looking for overall value.

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.
