Lovely Apartment
The apartment was cozy and comfortable, and the garden was a beautiful spot for a cup of coffee or glass of wine. Cristina met us when we arrived in a taxi, and gave us all kinds of info about the apartment itself and about transportation options. The apartment was in a nice location away from the tourist areas, so we got to experience the local culture a bit more, but it was an easy bus ride to the main attractions. There are two bus lines within a short walking distance from the apartment. I was able to message Cristina later with questions about the bus system, and she responded immediately. She even booked our taxi for our return trip to the airport! I would highly recommend this apartment.

Perfect Stay in Florence!
We were very happy with our stay at House of Gelsomino and Nespolo, it was a charming apartment with all of the necessities and many extras! We were in a walkable neighborhood to many bars, shops and restaurants. Our hostess was absolutely fantastic! She made us feel right at home and responded right away with any questions we had. All of the restaurants she recommended were fantastic, and within walking distance. We had 4 adults and there was plenty of space for a comfortable stay. Highly recommend this apartment!

Will Return!
Booking process very easy. Host provided excellent precheck in directions to location. Upon arrival she met us and walked us thru the property throughly explaining how everything worked. Also provided excellent directions to local shopping and bus services. We were afraid to let you know how terrific our stay was for fear everyone will want to stay here and we won’t be able to get back in! This is like a home away from home!

Absolutely Perfect!
Apartment location is in the center of the city of Florence, but you would never know it. It is very quiet with a private patio (garden) and gated parking. Very safe and secure. Apartment was clean and comfortable. Host Cristina was lovely and accommodating to all our needs and questions. Apartment is spacious and homey; plenty of room for the four of us and room to spread out when we needed our own space. Easy walking distance to most points of interest in the city. We took day trips to Pisa, Lucca and Bologna--all within easy reach by car. Our favorite restaurant was the local Coop--a quick walk around the corner from apartment. Many other cafes and restaurants nearby as well. Perfect apartment + lovely and accommodating host = fabulous Italy vacation!

Beautiful Florence
Florence was a treat to explore after staying in Rome for 4 days. Christina was a terrific host and catered to our every need. The bus routes were taking a little different route because of construction but she gave us a good heads-up. The apartment is decorated so nicely with a French flair. The bathroom facilities were so nice with a very large shower. Couldn’t have been happier with our stay.

At home in Florence
This lovely apartment suited our needs perfectly. It is far enough from the centre of town to be a good refuge from the crowds who (justifiably) surround the most popular attractions, yet easily accessible to the Arno riverside, and a 20-minute walk from Santa Crocce. If you like, there are two bus routes that will take you into the heart of Florence in minutes. There are groceries and cafes within easy walking distance. The facilities of the apartment are complete, and Maria Cristina shows you into the house gracefully and with delightful good humour. Note the collection of paintings and art objects that she has gathered (or painted herself). There is a certain rustic charm to this property; this is not your glaring white and stainless steel aesthetic, but it feels homey and sweet to this Canadian couple's taste. There is room to sleep four (a double and two singles), and you can dine al fresco on the patio or in the kitchen. We really enjoyed our stay, and would happily stay there again. Cristina is a super host.

Great experience in Florence Italy.
We definitely enjoyed our stay in Cristina's Vrbo home. The home is not that far from central Florence. Cristina was very concerned about our stay and if anything was needed she was always available. A parking space was essential for us and the property provided that. Overall great stay and compliments to Cristina for making our stay in Italy a success.

Soggiorno semplicemente perfetto
La Casa è un piano terra con 2 camere da letto, ha un parcheggio privato nel giardino comodissimo soprattutto se, come noi, si ha bambini e non si vuole spendere troppo tempo in cerca di parcheggio. La cucina è attrezzata di tutto, i letti sono comodi, il giardino esterno in primavera/estate deve essere proprio bello. La posizione è strategica se si vuole visitare il centro di Firenze pur restando fuori dal caos turistico. Maria Cristina è stata puntuale, gentile e ci ha fatto sentire a casa. Ha anche avuto molte accortezze in merito ai bambini e si è sempre messa a disposizione. Ci torneremo!
