“I'd recommend it for winter stays, or for summer with a stronger AC in the bedroom”
+I stayed for one month in Maddalena’s flat in Empoli during my research mobility visit to Florence University. Maddalena is a wonderful host, very friendly, kind, and highly responsive, which made my stay smooth and pleasant. The apartment itself is charming and well‑kept, with an excellent location right above lovely brand shops and coffee places, and very close to the train station. My stay was in June-July, and the summer heat was challenging as the sun shines directly into the flat all day. There is one air conditioner in the living room, but it is not very powerful, and the bedroom does not have air conditioning, which made it difficult to stay cool. For this reason, I would especially recommend the property for winter stays, or for summer once a stronger air conditioner is available in the bedroom. Overall, it is a pretty flat with a fantastic host and a very convenient location, and I truly appreciated Maddalena’s hospitality during my academic visit.

“Extremely satisfactory and exceeding our expectations.”
+Everything was excellent. The host, the location right in the center of the pedestrian area. The apartment was big, with a wonderful terrace wand with all facilities. Maddalena, the host a marvelous person. On Sunday she brought us warm brioches. Very correct and friendly at the same time
−It is very hard to find a weakness. The only thing is that you need to use stairs as the property is on the second floor. But is is same for all the building of the center of Empoli.

“Excellent”
+Centrally located, so everything we needed was very close. Apartment was perfect for 4, and had an extra couch. Apartment was very clean and had everything we needed, even an iron which we desperately needed. Balcony was the perfect spot for us to chill out on for mornings and nights. Maddalena was so nice and gave us a full tour and offered lots of material for the town, shops, restaurants, and activities. Would definitely stay again.

“Excellent”
+The apartment was clean and had everything you could need. Maddelena was our host was beyond helpful and welcoming meeting us at the property on our arrival to Empoli. We had a family wedding outside Empoli and Maddelena was able to help us with providing a taxi company number. The appartment was very central and easy to access all areas of Empoli with a short walk, the train station is very close by also. Would recommend this stay and would also happily return and stay again.

“Eine kleine Oase mitten in der Altstadt von Empoli.”
+Maddalena ist sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit! Sie hat uns noch tolle Tips zum Essen gehen weitergegeben. Das Superior Appartement ist sehr ruhig und der Kleine Sitzplatz draussen wirklich schön. Das Appartement ist sehr schön eingerichtet, mal fühlt sich sehr wohl, fast wie zu Hause.
−Der Wasserdruck in der Dusche ist gering, aber da kann Maddalena vermutlich nicht viel machen. Ansonsten hat uns ALLES gefallen.

“Eine Woche Toskana. Kultur und Architektur in Florenz und Pisa, Wandern in den Winbergen und einer wunderschönen Landsch”
+Die Lage mitten in der Fußgängerzone und nah am Bahnhof mit häufigen Verbindungen nach Pisa, Florenz und Siena ist ganz besonders gut. Maddalena ist eine Tolle Gastgeberin, sie hat sich um alles gekümmert und uns sehr geholfen. Alles ist sauber und gut gepflegt. Es ist alles da was man braucht, nebenan gibt’s guten Kaffe und Frühstück. Wir kommen gerne wieder, vielen Dank
