A very nice place for me and my family to explore Florence. It’s close to the stuff that a tourist wants to see (about 5 minutes from the museum that has the real David). I give it an 8/10 but with some minor TLC (ie: change some lightbulbs, fix the noisy AC and a fresh coat of paint) this place would be a 10.

Poor customer service
Property was clean and a decent size, but we got in late and there was no toilet paper. They could not leave a few rolls?? Also, not sure if this is normal but no one met us at the property at any point to do a walk through for a few minutes. No one met us in person to collect the “local tax?” fee in euros. We were told via text to leave the cash on the table when we left - and then they text us after that day that they found a different amount. This experience was not good. The owner is sending nasty emails about the cash difference. Why didn't they have someone stop by to provide receipt? Not sure why this fee was not included in the regular VRBO fee that already includes several other fees. Two of our other stays were fine - but this one was awful.

Nice comfortable apartment.
All the essential needs were met in this apartment. Comfortable place to stay. Pull out couch was more than adequate for one of my kids to sleep. Twin sized bunk beds were great. Kitchen allowed for basic meal prep.

My family of five had a very pleasant and comfortable stay. Walking distance to all the sights in central Florence and next to the art gallery museum. Great places to eat all around and a Carrefour Express grocery store right around the corner. Great communication with Elisabetta which ensured easy access to the apartment and was responsive with anything we needed. We definitely would stay again at this great location. I highly recommend this apartment.

Our stay in Florence - mixed feelings
Never met our Host. All communication was by email. Somehow we missed that the place was on the 3rd floor with no elevator. Would not have booked if we knew in advance. Also it would be nice to provide a “sharps” container as my wife is diabetic and takes insulin shots. Host best thing was to help arrange cab to train station on day of departure - for that I am appreciative.

Great Place - Great Location
Stayed 3 night with my wife and two 30+ year old children. This was a great place for the four of us since it had two bathrooms. Nothing fancy but a great central location to explore Florence from. Communication and check in was a bit of a challenge but had more to do with the language barrier than with the host. Bottom line, I would stay again and would recommend to others.

We enjoyed the walk ability of this property. Short, easy walks to Santa Maria Novella train station and all the main sights in Florence. Buses are also easily accessible outside the building and grocery markets are close by as well as many bars and restaurants.

March Stay
The apartment is right on San Marco Sq. which is a great location. We were literally 65 steps to the Academia and the best sandwich shop was right on the corner. Unfortunately, they are doing extensive work on the square and loud construction noise began at 7:30 am. The apartment was well appointed and spacious for three women. We enjoyed sitting in the family room area at night recapping the day and making plans for our next day. We highly recommend staying here. (Check with the city to see if construction is complete on San Marco Sq. Otherwise bring earplugs). Enjoy the conveniences and comfort of this apartment!

How could Florence Disappoint?
The property is located on what is basically a bus terminal. Great if you want a bus; not so great if you are in the front bedroom above the fumes and the noise. The hostess did not provide the entry codes until we were standing in front of the location in the rain. And our group had to stay together ALL the time because only one set of keys were provided; AND when the keys were removed from the property, the electricity automatically turned off. So if you stayed behind, you were in the dark. Additionally, the property is NOT next to Santa Maria Novella Train Station as listed. It is an 11 minute walk. It was a disappointing stay in Florence.

Great location to everything in Florence.. very walkable but we did use taxi with our luggage to train station but it’s only a 15 min walk. We didn’t use the kitchen but seems all is there if you need to. Found the glasses / dishes in the tv console. Great communication with host.
