Pro: L'appartamento ha una posizione eccellente. Il gestore non è stato solo paziente, ma ci ha anche consigliato benissimo su ristoranti e posizione di luoghi. Il locale vicino di notte era un po' rumoroso, ciononostante abbiamo riposato bene. Consigliatissimo!

Italia 🇮🇹
Pro: Posizione comodissima per raggiungere tutti i punti di interesse principali della città, facilmente raggiungibile sia dalla stazione del treno che con l'autobus. Molti bar e ristoranti vicini e mininarket Conad sulla strada subito dietro. Appartamento carino e accogliente, forse più adatto a due persone che tre ma noi ci siamo trovate benissimo ugualmente. Palazzo dotato di ascensore!
Contro: Se si ha il sonno leggero, portatevi dei tappi per le orecchie: il palazzo ha i suoi anni, dunque l'insonorizzazione rispetto alla strada e l'interno dell'edificio stesso è praticamente inesistente. Detto ciò, se non si hanno fastidi con i rumori esterni, è tutto perfetto!

Perfect place for a few nights stay. Great location and facilities.
Pro: Great location, everywhere we wanted to visit was within 20minutes of walk. The hosts were nice and explained the facilities in detailed. The facilities were also complete. Felt safe staying here too.
Contro: It is a bit noisy especially at night, which is understandable since it is a happening area. It didn't affect us much as we were tired from the sightseeing.

Fabulous place overall, large, comfortable, has washer in unit.
Pro: This place has everything we could hope for! It is large, even by American standards, has a washing machine in the unit, full kitchen (more on that later), and is a 5 minute walk to Galileo and Uffizi. All topped off with a lovely view. Sweet responsive hosts greeted us, and the doorman spoke perfect English. He was important. See part 2.
Contro: The hosts noticed it was hot and thoughtfully delivered a fan, saying the temperature was managed by the building. At 0200 AM when no one could sleep due to heat we messaged them asking if they could please talk to the building management about the temperature, and they responded first thing in the morning. Enter our hero the doorman. The air to our unit was simply not turned on. There were two delivery methods, one by the bldg one one in the unit. A/c was effective and the rest of the stay was lovely. Not sure the hosts knew about the air conditioner or how to turn it on. There was a special switch the doorman had to find. We were there for 3 nights and by the third night the kitchen was so moldy we had to keep the door closed. I suspect a leak under the sink. Most people might not notice, but I’m sensitive. Lastly, this place could use a good scrub. Even just a dust would help. Floors were clean but bathroom and kitchen were moldy and there were long fine gray hairs all over (we are not gray). If you are not sensitive you will be fine. Side note: I saw other warnings on the noise and thought we’d be fine. Think of it as being in a subway tunnel but instead of trains it’s drag racing mixed with sirens and motorcycles. The hosts provide ear plugs. The fan provided white noise, which helped. Once the air was on we could close the windows, which were remarkably helpful. This place is actually great, I’m just being thorough.

A unique place in a great location by the river Arno. Good hosts.
Pro: The unique design of the apartment. The facilities including the lift, aircon, washing machine, industrial fan, generous supply of espresso and candies.
Contro: The noise at night during the weekend coming from the main street and the slight odor in the bathroom which was masked by a plug in air freshener. The delay in delivering the keys although we were let into the lobby by the building administrator.

Excellent location, facilities and friendly staff.
Pro: Everything was superb. Our train from Rome got cancelled due to train strikes and had to arrive late to the apartment but Eleonora ensured that everything was smooth and accommodated the late check-in (she also kept in touch constantly through booking.com which was helpful). Location was superb with a calm surrounding right opposite the river and very close to all the main attractions. Facilities were excellent with very clear instructions and also with all information on places to visit.
