Comfortable stay with a few hiccups
Spent 5 nights (party of 4 adults) at Very Large Apartment in Florence. Apartment is spacious, full of character, wifi good. The apartment was mostly quiet except when other residents were noisy or their dog barked (not within the control of the host) which sometimes impacted sleeping.
Found the layout a bit haphazard. The main bedroom has an ensuite & is spacious. To access a bathroom from the 2nd bedroom you have to walk down the hall past the main bedroom. The step up to the toilet within the 2nd bathroom is a little tricky if you are using the bathroom in the middle of the night in semi darkness. The 3rd bathroom is narrow & usable. The kitchen, 3rd bedroom, lounge & dining are located on a higher level, accessed by around 6 steps. All bathrooms are located on the lower level of the apartment.
While we were in Florence it rained, on and off, every day & night. If was raining, it was overcast. Without a dryer we had continually damp towels (1 towel per person provided ) & requested a replacement. The host declined our request for a change of towels which was disappointing. The host suggested that in order to dry the towels we put an airconditioner on heat in one of the bedrooms & dry them on the rack.
Watch out for mozzies as despite keeping the doors and windows closed the entire time & progressively killing mozzies during our stay, I still woke to mozzies buzzing around my face on our last morning.
