Good Florence base
Pro: Great location in walking distance to main sights, away from the crowd but with good local restaurants and supermarkets nearby. Railway station 15 minutes easy walk. Comfrey bed and nice bedding and towels. Good washing machine, drying rack & iron etc. Nice and quiet at night. Lovely to watch swifts from our windows flying above and below us.
Contro: Respect that it is an old building but the apartment could benefit a refresh and some attention to detail that will enhance stays and improve ratings, others have given similar feedback and ideally should be dealt with. Here’s my constructive feedback based on staying five nights; Fix Shower - temperature is intermittent, hot -cold……then maybe hot! Kitchen - provide a few small pans, nice chopping board, more than one dish towel. Decoration - paintwork needs cleaning/decorating and some nicer pictures etc. would create a better ambience.

Perfect little apartment on Arno River with stunning views
Pro: Amazing location and stunning views from the room. Super quiet and peaceful. Host was lovely and would help with any enquiry I had which i really appreciated as I had booked this apartment after getting scammed from another apartment. Tiny old elevator which is a bit musty but I thought it was cool and an elevator in Florence is almost unheard of! The room was already done up ready with the pull out bed available which I really appreciated staying with someone else. Kitchen fully equipped and worked very well. The open spaces made it feel so light and airy and massive windows looked out over the Tuscan hills (photo attached is taken from one of the windows). Loved it!
Contro: Had some issues with the shower like not draining properly and the water only turning boiling hot or ice cold, but the host was super helpful in helping to fix things for us

Great stay and would book again.
Pro: This is a great little property in a perfect location. Walking distance from the main railway station, lots of restaurants and a number of small grocery stores nearby. Plenty of room for two people, a comfortable bed and very handy to have a washing machine.
Contro: Perhaps a few more small pans and utensils would be helpful but we managed with what was there.

Pro: It was spacious. The bathroom was great, especially the shower. Around the corner was an awesome bar that had great coffee and morning pastries. There was a grocery store close by. Was within walking distance of the Duomo.
Contro: Didn't like that the apartment was hot because the air conditioning wasn't on. Would suggest leaving a paper with the directions on how to operate the A/C.

Wonderful apartment that gives you the Florence Feel
Pro: Great check-in! She was so kind to us, very friendly meeting with the hostess. She explained perfectly how everything worked. I liked everything about this apartment, including the must have air-conditioning. It was perfect for a family of 4 (kids/young adults). It had everything you could possibly need. Great location! Everything we wanted to see was only about a 15/20 min walk away, Uffizi, Duomo, Santa Maria Novella, Sante Croce, Ponte Vecchio, La Republica, stores, shops, cafés, etc. And there were bus stops everywhere, like 100 meters away. We really got the Florence experience. Beautiful! The photo is the view at breakfast every morning.
Contro: The elevator only because I don't do well in closed confined areas. Very small space. Apparently, very typical in Florence. It took time to get used to it, but in the end it was totally fine. I used it all the time.

Emplacement exceptionnel.
Pro: L'emplacement était parfait. Proche de la gare et du centre historique. Nous avons tout fait à pieds. La possibilité d'arriver un peu plus tôt était bien pratique.
Contro: La douche ne fonctionnait que par le haut et variait beaucoup entre le chaud et le froid. Prévoir peut-être une nappe pour protéger la belle table en bois.
