Duomo Prestige is located in via dei Calzaiuoli one of the most beautiful and important streets in the historic center of Florence. A very lively street with many shops, which connects Piazza del Duomo to Piazza della Signoria, the two main squares of the city. A few steps from the apartment there is also the elegant Piazza della Repubblica which was the center of the city in Roman times. A really beautiful, modern and completely renovated house a stone's throw from all the main monuments of the city. From the apartment you can easily walk to all the main museums of Florence such as the Uffizi Gallery and the Accademia Gallery (home of Michelangelo's David) as well as the Duomo, the Basilica of Santa Croce, Ponte Vecchio and Palazzo Pitti.

The apartment is about one kilometre from the train station Santa Maria Novella of Florence, just a 10-15 minute walk. Alternatively you can take the bus C2 by ATAF in piazza dell'Unità Italiana, right in front of the train station. The bus stop is located on via Orsammichele, just a few steps from via dei Calzaiuoli,. Or, if you prefer, you can take one of the many cabs waiting around the station.
From the Florence Amerigo Vespucci airport, it takes about 25-30 minutes by taxi to get to the apartment.

Reviews
Communication with the host and the check in process were both excellent. The location is very central (and, as such, you will hear noise at night). Unfortunately, there is no mention that the apartment is up 5 flights of stairs with no elevator. There are nearly 100 steps each time you enter or leave - for someone who is physically unable to navigate stairs this would be an insurmountable problem. Instead we lugged our bags up all the way. Inside, the unit is dire need of a paint job on all walls and doors. Some doors have rusty hinges. The bathroom is updated but seems out of place as the rest of the apartment is in "well-used" shape. The beds were clean and comfortable, however there was no additional bedding for anyone using the sofa bed. There was not a single picture or decoration in the apartment - just dirty white walls. A coat of paint, some decorations and CLEARLY indicating the 100 steps would be highly recommended. As such we cannot recommend this apartment.

Factual and objective review of our stay.Inaccurate Listing: The apartment was dirty upon arrival and looked significantly worse than the listing photos. It had a fundamental cleanliness issue, with dirt and debris visible on the floors and surfaces.Immediate Issue: Upon check-in, we discovered an active ant infestation across multiple rooms in this 5th-floor apartment and immediately notified the host.Inadequate Remedy: The host sent someone who heavily sprayed an aerosol pesticide (Raid) throughout the unit, including food preparation areas, bathroom, and the bedroom, rather than utilizing professional pest control or cleaning services.Lack of Communication: We evacuated the apartment to air out the chemical fumes and informed the host that the surfaces would need to be cleaned before we could safely prepare food. We received no response for two hours.Host's Response: When the host finally replied, they dismissed our safety concerns, stating there was "no health hazard" and telling us to "just open the windows." Dead and live ants remained on the uncleaned surfaces.Resolution: Due to the persistent infestation, surface contamination, general filth, and lack of host cooperation, the unit was unlivable for a family. We had to book an alternative hotel at our own expense to salvage our trip.

Great location, clean and nice flat. Only issue is that The air conditioner did not cool the place. It has been about 80 degrees in here the entire stay. No response from host on a resolution.
