Lovely, Spacious, and Perfectly Located

Our group of 4 travelers found this property to meet our needs perfectly. It is located where we prefer to stay in Firenze, and provided all of the space and amenities we needed. The outdoor space is a lovely bonus.

Perfect Italian Getaway

We needed to find an apartment that was close to everything, yet still on a quite street. This was perfect! We didn’t eat much at home except a quick breakfast- with all the amazing restaurants and cafes in Florence- we had no trouble eating some delicious meals. Beat part of all was that we could walk everywhere. The property manager was very nice and offered some local tips. Would we return? Absolutely!

Wonderful location to explore Florence

Beautiful property in a great location. Plenty of room for 4 adults to live, sleep, cook and relax. The outdoor patio is lovely. There were bugs which the owner told us about so we couldn’t leave doors or windows open without bug spray which was provided but we were fine going out and coming in. One bed has a mattress that is pretty warped (we kept rolling into each other) and not very comfortable but that didn’t take away from our day to day enjoyment of the apartment. Ginerva very kind and welcoming.

Exceedingly well run property.

The location was quiet yet easily accessible to the major attractions. Conad grocery store 4-to-5-minute walk. The apartment is very well appointed, and the staff were readily accessible and tailored their suggestions for our needs. The information booklet provided was very helpful, and all three suggested restaurants that we visited were wonderful. Plenty of space for our party of 3 adults. Wonderful outside space. Everything worked. If we were to return to Florence, we would stay here again. Worth every penny.

Quiet neighborhood

Emma and Ginevra were very nice. The apartment is in a very nice quiet neighborhood. It is across the Ponte Vecchio from most of the attractions that you will go to Florence. That was fine with us. We love to walk. When we checked in the place had not been cleaned. I sent an email to Ginevra and she took care of it right away. There are a few things in the apartment that need to be repaired. Water runs out of the shower and down the stair. A simple rolled up towel under the shower does not fix the problem. The heated towel racks in the bathrooms did not work. It would’ve been nice if they had because the apartment is very damp. If you plan on using the kitchen, make sure you purchase a couple of dish towels only one will be provided. A dish washing cloth or sponge, none provided. Also, the apartment is vacant of salt pepper, any type of cooking oil or spices. There is a washer dryer combo. Emma instructed us. We followed her instructions. We put our laundry in at 8 AM. We went out for the day. At 4:30 PM when we came back, the laundry was not dry. Ginevra the owner lives upstairs. She didn’t know how to use the appliance. We had a great time in Florence. However, we would not recommend this apartment to friends or family and would not stay here again.

Very Bad And Costly Experience

Not at all what we expected or what was represented. 68 steps to get to the apartment up a dirty poorly lit stairwell. Elevator seldom worked but even when it did there were still many steps to climb. No microwave. Washer/ dryer combination was so old and dirty it ruin clothes so it really couldn’t be used. “Garden” was dirty and overgrown. The apartment was dirty, sofa was so musty and smelled so bad that we put a sheet over it to sit on it. Mattress was very old and uncomfortable. Tub was rusting. For 2 days we had no hot water. Host told VRBO that we must have caused the problem. No lock at all on one of the outside sliding glass doors. We were told not to worry …that no one would come in. The host entered the property at least twice a week usually giving notice after she entered. I don’t know who wrote the couple of positive reviews for this property but don’t be fooled by them or the photos. The “Guestbook “ in the apartment had all the pages torn out except for one review. I believe that says it all. It was a huge costly mistake. It cost us approximately $11,000 USD for 6 weeks. We left after 2 weeks without any refund…thats how bad it was. We found another place close by and rented it for the remainder of our trip.

Amazing stay in Firenze

This was a last minute booking for us - and did we luck out! The apartment is in a quiet building and neighborhood, but just a minute to walk to the Ponte Vecchio bridge and all of the highlights and excitement of Florence. Our family of 4 (2 parents and 2 adult children) were super comfortable and took full advantage of the patio and washing machine (it was pretty hot for our trip). We ended up exploring a lot of the great neighborhoods with amazing gelato and delicious food - seriously just steps away. Great communication with Emma - who was super helpful with recommendations and Ginevra. Fair warning - there are ALOT of steps up to the apartment, but thankfully an elevator to help with the luggage. Really was perfect!
