Loved the appartamento Palazzo Perudi! We stayed here for two weeks in July, and were very comfortable. The air conditioning was great; lots of holiday flats in Florence do not provide this. Matteo and Giulia were friendly hosts and left lots of information in the apartment about things to visit in Florence. The location of the flat is great, the views are superb and it is easy to get to all the sights on foot. It is clean and well equipped and the space is good for two people, but we think it would be a bit small for four. We liked the history of this old apartment, but some people might prefer something with a more modern feel. One thing we didn’t like was the noise from the street below at night, but maybe this is all part of the charm of an Italian holiday! |
