In a city like Florence, it’s hard to stay too far away from something of historical significance, but even so, Time Lyric manages to stand out. It’s right between the Duomo and the Basilica di San Lorenzo, and while that does mean you’re subject to a fair number of tourists in the immediate vicinity, that’s something we can live with. It’s not a huge flat, but it’s more than enough for two people, and the natural light and high ceilings give a real sense of space.


Home truths:
*You will have difficulty parking near the home as the home is located in a central, pedestrian spot. We recommend that you stick to the nearest public car park.

*Two people can sleep on a sofa bed, but they wouldn't have much privacy.
*The kitchen's fine for the basics, but there's no oven or dishwasher.
*Phone signal is a bit weak inside, due to the thick stone walls.
*The bathroom in this home is very small. That said, it has everything you need to get ready for the day.
*We think some areas of this home could do with a refresh.
