We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here in beautiful Florence!!!The VRBO was very nice. The location was perfect! The apartment was well equipped and the owner was more than happy to assist us. The garden area out back was very peaceful and relaxing after a busy day. It was great to have a washer on premises (although there was no dryer?) We were able to stroll the streets of Florence, see the Galleries and enjoy the amazing food Our trip was amazing!
Check in was perfect, communication and prompt and professional check in! The place was exceptional. Location could not have been better. The courtyard was gorgeous and the place was clean and quiet. I would stay here again in a heartbeat and recommend it to others!!
Communication with the owners was great. Our flight was delayed and the late check in surcharge was a bit of a surprise - itâs in the small print. The property is in a great location- walking distance from pretty much everywhere youâd want to go and close to a tram stop so convenient for the airport without having to pay for taxis. The property was clean and well maintained - the courtyard is shared - which I didnât think was made clear.It is an extremely old building and required maintenance during our stay. There is only one plug socket in the whole apartment and when the aircon leaks (which is pretty regular) it drips down the wall above the socket. The loo flush is temperamental. Any complaints though were dealt with quickly.
This apartment was convenient and quiet. Having a washing machine was a bonus! We couldn't take advantage of the garden because of the rain. Unfortunately, there is very little natural light in the apartment so it felt a little gloomy (photos are misleading).
Great location, easy access to Duomo, other down town locations, and tram station. Quiet street close to everything. (Shared courtyard, although no one ended up using it while we were there.)
We had a lovely time staying here. What an incredible setting being a couple minutes walk from a lively street with lots of places to eat and drink that leads you to the Duomo. The courtyard was like a little oasis.Only criticism was the lack of working plugs to charge phones.
MAIN VALUE: its the location, which is within walking distance to all tourist points of interests, and being on the first floor which is convenient luggage-wise.
The building is a heritage house that is renovated to house 4 people, but we did not find it neither comfortable nor well equipped.
Yes everything looked like the listing BUT mattresses were too old that made noise making it hard to sleep. There are items such as washer & coffee makers but there's absolutely NOTHING that would make any of these usable such as detergent, coffee filter, paper towels etc. BASIC condiments like tea, coffee, sugar and salt were nonexistant. There were 2 mini shampoo/body gel bottles for 3 people and very limited toilet paper. We had to buy our own papertowels.
CHECK IN: we were told about the city taxes but nothing in regards to late check in fee which had to be paid cash. The guy who checked us in was on time but he didn't know much about when we asked about hot to adjust the heating system. BIGGEST ISSUE: WIFI was not working! We ended up having to pay about $50 to buy Data packages as we needed to work. I kept communicating with the three different numbers I was provided rather than one point of contact to follow up regarding this and basically was told it's the city's problem and we don't know when it'll be fixed! I do understand the problems of outages that happen, but as hosts who charged us for basic amenities they should have either refunded us or offered solutions! overall ..MEH
Our stay was enjoyable and comfortable in this quiet apartment with a cute terrace. It was in the heart of old Florence, which put us within walking distance of everything.
The perfect home base for our Florentine adventure! Walkable to attractions and amenities while also quiet and comfortable. Handy laundry machine, nicely outfitted kitchen.
Up the block from Bistrot Damiano (delightful sandwiches and host).
Eduardo and his team were very prompt and helpful. Would definitely stay here again should we return to Florence!
