I loved Casa Nicola. After staying one week, I decided to stay another week because I felt so comfortable and at home here. It had the feel of FLORENCE. The bedroom was very comfortable, and I loved the desk and the view of the church Santa Croce steeple. The windows brought in light. The terrace was delightful to have coffee or wine. The host was very responsive. It was magical when the bells rang. My stay in FLORENCE was very special because of this location.The kitchen had everything you would need and the view and light was wonderful as well. When I come back to floors, I hope to stay in this location again. It was very clean and what I needed was provided. Grazie. MEL

This was our second trip to Europe. We stayed in this apartment in 2016 for our 35th wedding Anniversary and loved it so much that we came here again in 2025 for our retirement celebration. It is a perfect location and beautiful rental property. Would stay here again in a heartbeat!

It was a nice rustic apartment, just like explained. Grocery store and markets nearby a plus. Very convenient to all sites and felt safe. The stairs were a bit for me because my bags were heavy but in all just fine. The couch was comfortable but front was sagging so might need replacing in future but I truly enjoyed my stay. I would recommend it, very good for the price!

We enjoyed our stay - host was great, apartment was clean, had lots of space, convenient location to food and sites, cute rooftop patio. Gave it 3 stars, it's more like 3.5. The stairs are narrow and steep, I think there are 45 or so, and they are worn so you feel like you are going to slide off. The bathroom was long and narrow, same with bathtub so it was hard to shower without touching the shower curtain. The bed was rock hard, I'm a side sleeper and my hips were aching each morning. Bedroom could use a dresser so you don't have to live out of your suitcase. The lock on the patio door had just broken so that was a little unnerving. Great to have a washer but it left the close pretty wet and the clothes took a while to dry.We still recommend the rental if those issues don't bother you.
