“Great host and location for a personal villa that is just outside of the city center.”
+The location was excellent. Just enough outside the city center to feel like you are in your own private villa, but access to a bus stop, taxis, and walking distance to the Porta Romana area. The host, Christian, is incredibly nice and helpful with anything you may need. Lots of extra amenities available that we didn't expect from coffees, drinks, etc. Room setup is also great with 2 bedrooms completely separated by the living area and kitchen.

“Nice, quiet property up in the hillside above Firenze”
+Christian was an excellent host. We communicated through WhatsApp and he met us at the gate upon arrival. We rented a car for half of our stay and there was free parking behind an automatic gate on the property. The property is a quick bus ride down to the entrance to Florence (Porta Romana). Bus does not operate on Sunday. Fare is €1.70 and for a taxi ride is between €20-25. Property is very quiet, beds were comfortable and shower was hot. The house is set back away from the main property. We did not need AC during our visit but did turn on the heater when it started to get chilly at night. For your convenience, there are refreshments in the refrigerator, coffee pods and a washer AND dryer.

“Perfect location for me . You can walk down to town or head out into the countryside. Wish I didn’t have to leave”
+Cute villa on the outskirts of Florence centre .. quiet away from the busy streets . Stayed for 10 days with 20 year old daughter . Has everything you need . Christian is very helpful and accomodating and very very easy to bus or walk into town . Added touch of having a few supplies on arrival especially in the heat of summer .

“La Limonaia, how we miss you!”
+Agh! La Limonaia, how we miss you already! A true home away from home nestled in the leafy rural suburbs just a 20 minute walk (10 minute bus) into downtown Florence. We had a 6 year old and 3 year old and strolled into downtown Florence and back everyday and returned to the peaceful, leafy (lemon treed courtyard) and and perfectly quiet private comfort of La Limonaia, a lovely and elegant cottage sitting adjacent to a beautiful courtyard of a 1380’s villa. You are settled away in your own gardens with lawn and private hedgerow with patio and sitting area. Unit is well furnished with two main bedrooms on opposite ends of unit for privacy, well appointed and modern bathrooms and kitchen with Lavazza coffee maker. Christian the owner is an amazing, friendly and knowledgeable host, and readily available for your needs. We would return to what felt like a true home in Florence as soon as we can! Note the walk down into town is easy with plenty of food and wine shops along the way. The walk up is up a hill and may be a bit of a challenge for some but a small bus drops you off outside the property and runs on a regular basis, there is also taxi service. We walked into Florence and back w
−Nothing it was perfect for a family, or 2 couples or a single person wishing to have a quiet and restful base in which to explore Florence and surrounding area.

“Our stay was wonderful and the property is beautiful!”
+The property and villa were very well maintained. The beds were very comfortable. It was also very peaceful and delightful to have dinner outside. We really felt the contryside of Tuscany as we sat outside. Christian, the manager, was very accommodating and friendly. Upon our arrival, he even offered us dinner for the 4 of us.
−We did not like that the bus does not run so frequently. But it is easy and right outside the villa and cabs are easy, quick and not so expensive.

“Superb”
+Nice equipments, good base to explore Florence. Comfortable stay for 4 weeks.

“A lovely spacious accommodation”
+The 2 shower/bathrooms is a bonus, very spacious and lots of information on the booklet. Beds are very comfy with no bed bugs. Two air conditioning units to keep us cool. There were drinks in fridge and dishwasher tablets, coffee capsules etc in the cupboard, bus tickets if required, which was very thoughtful, though drinks, coffee capsules, bus tickets are at cost. There was a pay as you use washing machine/tumble dryer in the shed.
−It could improve things if there were nets at the windows/door to stop mosquito coming into the accommodation. Having air condition does help though. Also having extractor fans installed in both bathroom/shower would improve the moisture being trapped in the accommodation.
