Right above Florence's Teatro Verdi, this two-bedroom apartment is ideal for families and friends, with a sofa bed in the living room for an extra two guests. The gorgeous art of famous works like Michelangelo's David above the beds really make this home stand out, and while you can expect some outside noise here due to the location, we think it's more than worth it. You'll be just steps from attractions like the Cathedral of Santa Maria del Fiore, as well as plenty of shops and restaurants for stocking up on essentials and trying the local cuisine.

Home truths:
*Service animals may be welcome here, but speak to your host about this before booking – regular pets aren't permitted. *At full capacity, two guests will sleep on the sofa bed in the living room. *This home is in an apartment building in a central location, so you can expect to hear some outside noise, and you may bump into other guests during your stay. *Some cleaning and maintenance are provided here by your host.
