Great location

Location was great and main bedroom was large with plenty of space and an en-suite. The other 2 rooms are much smaller with the other double at the end of the apartment (a long way from bathroom and cooler temp than rest of apartment) so if going with 2 couples one will be disappointed by comparison. Pillows were awful and washing machine wasn’t working but overall we enjoyed staying in Florence.

Great Location!

Excellent location, central to museums and churches Great restaurants within walking distance. Stairwell can be dark at times just look for the switch at the bottom or use the light of your phone.

Great location, nice apartment

This was a nice apartment and worked well for our family group of 4 adults and 3 children. Pros: Overlooks San Lorenzo's church One and a half blocks from the cathedral. Several restaurants within 50 meters. Grocery store was half a block a way Just over a block from the end of the airport tram line About two blocks from the main train station Nice apartment with 2 nice bathrooms Cons: 1. Stairs - it is on what American's would say is the 3rd floor and each floor has high ceilings so its like walking up 4 flights of stairs. (Europeans commonly say ground floor with the 1st floor being above ground, whereas in my area it would be the ground floor is the first floor.) 2. A/C was weak in the master bedroom and it was hot in Florence on our visit. The other two bedrooms were fine but the master never really got cool. (It may have been our fault for not fully understanding the A/C remotes and features.) Note: Communication on payment was odd. No problem in the end but different from what we expected. We communicated several times before our arrival. We thought we had pre-paid everything but the property manager expected us to pay the cleaning fee and city taxes in cash at the end of the stay. It all worked out but was confusing.

Great location

Location was close enough to walk everywhere, and that’s just what we did with our family of 7. Property manager was easy to reach when we had concerns. There was a washer for use, however they’re not accustomed to having a dryer unit, so we hung our clothes to be dried. All in all, we would definitely stay here again.

Excellent Location

The location is perfect- the listing is accurate. Getting into the property was a little difficult because the keys had to be put in just right. Took us several attempts. Trying to find the correct apartment was also confusing. The directions for this could be better. There was not enough toilet paper for 6 adults and we were told to go buy some. Only one dish towel and no paper towels (which is not really unusual in Italy). The main issue was that I was messaged 4 times by the host to make sure that the cleaning fee and city tax be left, in cash, at the property- they were very insistant on this. It felt a little scammy.
