Huge apartment for Florence-could sleep 8. Large eat in kitchen with larger refrigerator, separate living room with fireplace, separate dining room and bedrooms were up a couple of steps and away from main living areas for privacy and quietness. Elevator worked well and location convenient to all attractions in the Oltrarno area and the Ponte Vecchio. Will stay here again. Attentive staff, clean facility and a washer for ease in extended stays. Loved it!

Temporary construction work on Lungarno diverted traffic down Dei Bardi but should end soon.

Wohnung großzügig, sehr angenehm, gut ausgestattet. Alle Sehenswürdigkeiten gut erreichbar. Zu empfehlen.

Wasserdruck in den sonst sehr angenehmen Badezimmern.

The unit itself is very well located and easy to move from here to the center of the city with ease. The elevator worked just fine and the unit was easily accessible. The rooms are all as big as they looked in the pictures and the furniture is all in good condition. The a/c worked well, so long as you used it in conjunction with closing the shutters during the day. The kitchen has nice, functioning appliances and there is lots of space to spread out.

The unit was dirty. The housekeeper had clearly been there when we arrived, due to the bag of used bedding that was on the front doorstep. However, the unit itself was not clean. We walked around in white socks that were quite brown by time we took them off that evening. We suffered from mosquito bites every one of the four nights we were there. We thought it would stop after the first day, when we could be sure the windows were kept closed, but it was just as bad every night. We discovered the last day that the guest bedroom had no glass in the windows, just wooden shutters. Perhaps that was the source. When we arrived at 3PM the first day, we called on the host, Ilana, as the towels they provided were all mismatched, some had stains on them and none of them smelled clean, they smelled like they had come out of an old storage cabinet. The host acknowledged our concern, but didn’t replace the towels until 10AM the next day. I include pictures of the towels and the bath mat, which appears to have been white at some time, long in the past. The next time we heard from the host was three days later, when we were to leave. They asked how the stay had been, but only as a prelude to ask that we do them a favor and leave the city tax in the lockbox outside. A fitting end, as it meant the host didn’t have to go upstairs and see how dirty the unit was, just pause in the street, take their money and move on. I previewed my concerns to the host, who did not seem much phased by any of these issues. It’s sad, because this unit could be so outstanding if someone would just put that little bit of extra effort in. This host certainly feels no motivation to do.
