The location was great. We were disappointed with the cleanliness. A bathroom trash can was never emptied, hairs were found on bathroom counters, the furniture in the living room is a bit dirty and we weren’t notified until arrival that one of the bathrooms was not working. The host was very responsive, the beds were very comfortable and check in was fairly easy. Overall we enjoyed our stay, although we wish it had been cleaner.

Incredible Location!

We were extremely happy to see how close this property was to everything from restaurants, shopping and sightseeing. Checking in and checking out was seamless. The property was spacious for our family of 5. Having 3 bathrooms for 3 teens, was very helpful. The kitchen had everything you might need to make a meal. The beds were comfortable and the bedrooms were big. The view from the living room was amazing. Looking out over the river, watching the sunrise on the right and all the people on the bridge on the left was perfect. We would stay here again in a heartbeat. A few things that need updating or cleaning are the furniture, walls and rug in the living room. New pillows would be good too!

Amazing location, view and excellent air conditioning!

Location and views can’t be beat! Breathtaking! I would recommend this property. Air conditioning is excellent and it was very hot outside but apartment felt great. Great sized modern bathrooms and water pressure. Excellent gelato across the street and terrific bars downstairs on this block right on the Arno. You may need to request additional towels and keys (we received two sets of keys) and washer/dryer instructions as we couldn’t figure it out. A supermarket across the street for all your food and alcohol needs. No cereal sized bowls. Could use additional bed pillows too. It was quite clean but the bedding needs to be refreshed which is why I gave cleanliness 4 stars. I have been to Florence multiple times and would stay here again given the modern feel, size, location and views. You’re 10 minutes walk to Piazza Signoria and Uffizzi.

Incredible apartment and location in Florence

We just returned from 1 week at Luxury Blue River and it was one of the very best family vacations we have ever had. The group was two adults, 3 kids in their 20's and one teenager. The apartment is spacious and the bedrooms are comfortable and have lots of storage. The bathrooms were well equipped with hair dryers, large towels, and good showers. The location of this apartment is breathtaking! I am an Italy Travel Specialist by profession and the views from this apartment knocked my socks off! This was perhaps my 10th time to Florence in addition to having studied there as a university student, and this was my very favorite location to stay. It is well managed and the building is secure with a small elevator for luggage. The apartment itself is two flights of stairs up but they are easy stairs. Across the street is a sufficient grocery and good gelato. Below is a high end seafood restaurant and a good pizza place next to that. If you are considering this apartment, book it- you will be so pleased!

Wonderful location!

We loved the location of this VRBO. It really cannot be beat. Steps from the Ponte Vecchio, across the street from a grocery and a wonderful sandwich shop and gelato store, next door to a wine bar, and close to a small coffee shop. The greatest feature of the property is the amazing view of the Arno. Truly an unbeatable location. The property would be near perfect with a few tweaks, like making sure there are enough supplies. There were no extra trash bags and no dish towels at all. The mattresses were quite comfortable but the bedding is sub par. The duvets are thin and dingy. There are a few extra pillows but no pillowcases. None of the beds have mattress pads, but maybe that is not a thing in Italy. The property is not cheap but worth it, especially if a little more attention is paid to these details.

Amazing Location, Poorly Maintained Property…We were really looking forward to our stay because the location is absolutely amazing — close to everything and in a beautiful area. Unfortunately, the property itself was a huge letdown.The unit was filthy upon arrival. Mold was visible in the bathroom sinks, and the shower drains were clogged and draining very slowly. There was dust and cobwebs hanging from the chandelier, and a concerning black substance was visible on the air vents. The walls were dirty and looked like they hadn’t been cleaned or painted in years. To top it all off, one of the bedrooms was leaking water through the wall — completely unacceptable.We documented everything with photos. It’s clear that this property is being neglected. If someone has hired you as a management company to oversee it, I would be extremely disappointed in your services.With some care and attention, this place could be great — but as it stands, I cannot recommend staying here.

Perfect location with an amazing view!

We loved our time in Firenze and certainly appreciated the extraordinary location of this property. The views over the Arno were breathtaking and the ease with which we could walk to so many parts of this beautiful city made the location perfect for our family. Situated across from the Uffizi, 10 minute walk to the Duomo and not much further to the Accademia, 20 minute walk to Santa Maria Novella and close to so many wonderful restaurants, cafes, etc. Beds were super comfortable, the apartment was immaculately clean. Only suggestions would be to update the living room furnishings (rug and pillows were tired) and to add a few details like a coffee machine and hooks for towels in the bathrooms. Otherwise, perfect! We would definitely return!

Fantastic Apartment - Unbelievable location!

The location is perfect – you will not find a better view in Florence. The apartment has large windows offering unforgettable views of the Arno River and Ponte Vecchio. The location offers easy access to restaurants, shops, and everything Florence has to offer. We were there in May with perfect weather…we opened up the two HUGE windows every night to take in the ambiance of Ponte Vecchio! The apartment looks exactly as pictured and check-in / check-out were seamless. I would highly recommend!

Location is Not Everything

This property has a great location. Right on the arno river overlooking the ponte vecchio but the apartment is dirty. The furniture in the living room is disgusting. The sofa pillows are dirty and super worn. The bathrooms are bare - there is not even a place to put your soap in the shower. The bed had a bare duvet without a cover. the pillow did not have a pillow case. Nothing has been done to maintain the apartment, which is very sad since it has such a great location and it is a huge and very nice apartment. Sadly it is just not well maintained. The pictures are of when the property was originally listed. They are not an accurate depiction of the condition of the apartment.

Our stay in Florence was short. However, the Luxury Blue River was quite comfortable for our party of three and the locaton was fantastic. The apartment overlooks the river and is directly across from the Uffizi Gallery and we truly enjoyed the view. Also, our host Erica was kind, responsive, and made check in very easy. Plus, she provided restaurant recommendations from pizza to places serving favorite local dishes.

Beautiful property in an ideal location

Loved the property. The view was phenomenal. The full wall of windows towards the river and bridge were awesome and increased the feeling of outdoor / indoor living. We spent all of our time exploring the city so didn't spend much time in the unit but it was beautiful, open, airy, and clean. Unit location is ideal base for exploring. We walked nearly every where we wanted to go. Only negative is the owner insisted upon entering the property the second day we were there even though we asked him/her not to. Stated that there was some repair or another they had to do. We didn't appreciate the intrusion and didn't see a repair that was completed upon their departure. We had to pay some sort of tax upon check-in via credit card - they said it wasn't part of the VRBO payment we already made. While it wasn't very much, it was odd. Even with these inconveniences, the unit was beautiful and well worth it. Hand soup dispensers don't work in any of the bathrooms.
