we are looking for an apt for 5 people in July in Florence. Max 200 euro/nite, safe area and 2 bedrooms with doors (not lofts).

Any suggestions?

You mean 1400 euro/week, right? That will be tough in peak rental season.

Best wishes,

Rex

My husband, grandson and I just returned from Italy, where we rented a two bedroom apartment in very convenient Via Palazuolo. There is also a sleeper sofa in the living room. The apartment was recently renovated, with all new fixtures in the 2 baths. Everything about it was comfortable and pleasant. It was on the 2nd floor, but we are in our 60's and did not find that a problem. It's about 10-15 minute walk to the Duomo and Accademia and there are restaurants, shops and internet stores. We paid about $200.00 a night in April and found it on vrbo.com #13518.

Check out www.initaly.com. They were very helpful when we were looking for and booking our apt in Florence.

Good luck!
