Guest Reviews

• Shuk Har (7/5): - the apartment is very spacious and its location is very convenient to the sight seeing places
• Gloria (9/5): - La ubicación, muy cerca de todo
• Elsa Irene (10/5): Merecido comentario - Muy acogedor. Simple pero con todo lo necesario pequeños detalles de buen gusto y bien equipado. Todo lo hicimos caminando...incluso ver la puesta del sol en ese sitio hermoso.... somos muy caminadores Nada
• Gabriela (8/5): Buena ubicación - La ubicación. Todo muy limpio. La comodidad de 2 baños es un plus. Las camas cómodas. Un poco chico para 5
• MIRELLA (6/5): - Guelfa House ha di positivo la proprietaria, molto disponibile al dialogo col cliente e lo staff da lei incaricato ad accoglierci, molto gentile e sorridente. Ottima la presenza di due bagni, anche se uno dei due molto stretto. Camera tripla comoda e divano letto altrettanto comodo. La cucina è ben attrezzata, nonostante noi abbiamo mangiato sempre fuori. Purtroppo la posizione non è proprio vicinissima ai maggiori punti di attrazione. Bisogna camminare un po'. Inoltre abbiamo trovato l'ambiente un po' freddo e umido. Presenti innumerevoli zanzare che hanno disturbato il nostro soggiorno, mio figlio piccolo è stato pizzicato ovunque. Anche la zona a tarda sera non sembrava essere molto sicura. Nonostante ciò la presenza delle inferriate ci ha dato tranquillità. Consiglierei di migliorare qualcosina per rendere il soggiorno più confortevole. Grazie. Preciso che le mie vogliono essere critiche costruttive e non denigratorie. In fondo siamo riusciti in poco a tempo a godere della bellezza di Firenze
• Daniela (10/5): Esperienza ottima - Posizione, pulizia, host molto disponibile
• Idoia (9/5): -
• Juan (8/5): Excellent location, great kitchen - AC was not working properly
• rosalia (6/5): - Position très centrale pour visiter la ville, au calme. 5 minutes à pied de la gare. Pièces malheureusement plutôt humides, pas très lumineuses. La propreté, en particulier pour l'équipement de la cuisine, demande et mérite un effort supplémentaire.
• Shuangji (8/5): - Close to everything 1 both room is too small
• rocchina (7/5): -
• Ferrari (8/5): Confortevole - Posizione buona
• Barbara (9/5): - Good location. Good value No coffee maker
• Maria Fernanda (9/5): Florencia a tu alcance - Excelente ubicación, cerca de la estación Santa María Novella, lo que nos evitó el uso del metro, llegamos a pie a todos los sitios de interés. Además habían cerca supermercados y buena oferta gastronómica. El lugar era limpio y agradable, un apartamento en 1er piso, con los esencial para preparar desayuno y llegar a dormir en la noche. Sería recomendable contar con una cafetera para las mañanas.

• Imelda (9/5): - The house was wonderful. Close to main attraction. The staff who received us was amazing. There are many supermarkets nearby. Asian food close to house was affordable price and tasty.
• Jennifer (8/5): Great location for a quick visit to Florence! - Conveniently located (10ish minute walk to train station or bus depot), accommodated our family of five, and the best meal we had in Florence was less than a 30 second walk! There isn’t seating space if you’re using the pull-out couch. If you are over 6’2” then you’ll have to duck in the corridor leading to the back bedroom. The door-locking system is super secure, but a bit confusing.
• Alexandre (10/5): We loved staying at this accommodation for the comfort and location. It has ample space even though there are 5 of us (i - Everything. It’s spacious, clean, and comfortable; close to city centre and with access from o lots of amenities; the staff is extremely helpful. Nothing. We liked everything about it.
• Ian (6/5): Good location but could have been so much better. - Good location. Kitchen facilities are basic, no water, coffee, milk, oil, etc. left we needed to immediately go out to purchase provisions to have a drink, not really welcoming.
• Yanely (10/5): Exceptional -
• Sandra (10/5): Highly recommend this location! The host was personable and helpful! - Adorable and so convenient!
• Natalie (10/5): Exceptional -

• Massimiliano (8/5): Very good - Very close to main attractions , cosy place, close to train station and other transportation, shops and restaurants nearby For a family of five it was a bit small
• Armen (6/5): Pleasant - Location and overall organization of apartment. It wasn’t clean at all. Bed wasn’t clean as well.
• Simon (9/5): Lovely apartment in a great location to visit one of the most beautiful cities in the world - The apartment is lightly furnished but has everything you’d need. It’s in a great and quiet location, close to the Duomo and the central food market (great place to go for breakfast). Host was very helpful and welcoming.
• Pijitra (10/5): Exceptional - Amazing location, close to everything and very clean. Rita is so kind and always well communicated. We definitely stay here again when we come back to Florence. Thank you Rita!
• Renata (10/5): - Excelente ubicación, el departamento lindo, acogedor y limpio. Todos los servicios, caminando llegas a todas las atracciones y Rita súper amable y todas las instrucciones claras. Recomendable
• Ricardo (7/5): Good - The host was very helpful and the location is great. The second bathroom is too small and the sofa bed was not good.
• Sonia (9/5): Excellent apartment - Very friendly welcome, the apartment had everything we needed. Very effective air con, having two bathrooms came in useful too. The location was good, lots of restaurants and shops close by and the cathedral etc were a short walk We had difficulty working the oven but the hob was fine.
• Stacy (10/5): Really made the city accessible. So close to so many great galleries, shops and restaurants. - Great property for families. Nice space in terms of beds, TWO Bathrooms!!!, kitchen, easy walking distance to Duomo. Laundry was such a huge benefit! Nothing
• Rufat (8/5): Authentic Florence experience. - Great location, walking distance to all the main sightseeing places in central Florence + 10 minutes walk from the Santa Maria Novella station. Many shops, cafes and restaurants around. The apartment was clean and comfortable; ACs, ventilators, travel adapters, umbrellas, little details thought out. Overall an authentic Florence experience. The host was very kind, communicative and helpful. A few small issues that we shared with the host, who was helpful in solving and advising. Overall no major negatives.
• Mb (8/5): Very good - Location close to train station and walking to main attractions. Clean. Comfortable beds. One of the bathrooms was a bit too tight (small)
• Taylah (10/5): Fantastic accomodation - Really enjoyed our stay at this property. The owner was very helpful and supplied instructions that made check in and check out very easy. All rooms were very clean.
• Ellynel (8/5): - The location of the property was the best part . Close to the train station , restaurants and stores
• Gabriel (10/5): Excellent and clean place to stay, centrally located - We loved this stay, really close to the places we want to go, close to the train and tram stations, but in a quiet street. The place is renovated, beautiful and sparkling clean bathrooms, comfy beds (for European standards), and working AC are a blessing in the summer. I which we could have stayed longer. Communication with the host and the keeper was excellent, they were very responsive. Availability of electric outlets could be better, but we were prepared for that, no issues.
• Liza (10/5): Wonderful stay close to Firenze’s main attractions! - The property is super spacious and has two bathrooms. It is very clean and fully equipped. We loved that it was a ground level apartment.
• Isis (7/5): Close to train station - Appartment was close to train station. Personel did not speak english so no information was provided. It was ok in general. No coffee or cooking essentials were provided (cooking oil, sugar).
• Anthi (10/5): We enjoyed our visit. Highly recommend. - The location was excellent, a walking distance to the city centre and all attractions. Very clean, spacious and the host was lovely and friendly. Would highly recommend!
• Kathryn (8/5): Handy little flat in great location. - We liked the location, the comfy beds, and the peace and quiet at night. There was an unpleasant smell of drains and lots of mosquitos. We would have liked mosquito screens on the window and more kitchen equipment, e.g. a cheese grater, a spoon with holes, and basics such as oil, salt, and pepper (there were only pepper corns, no grinder)
• Christina (8/5): Comfy and convenient - It is in a convenient location and was clean and had everything we needed. Not much natural light comes in from the windows
• hubert (10/5): - Super accueil chaleureux et bon standing
• Emily (8/5): Cosy place with a great location! Definitely value for money! - Rita, the host was very responsive to my queries and even accommodated my early check-in request. The location was very good as it was 10-15 mins walking distance to the mercanto centrale, train station, grocery stores/supermarkets (general and asian), laundromat and places of interest! The sofa bed in the kitchen meant only light cooking allowed. While there are 2 fully functional toilets, one of them was much smaller but still served well as an extra toilet. The washing machine had no dryer function but because of its good location, we could use a laundromat just a very short walk away!
• Denisa (10/5): Everything was very good, especially Besa, who, with her suggestions and orderliness, embellished our stay in Florence. - The cleanliness and location.
• Karen (9/5): We would definitely stay here again! :) - Location for people without mobility issues is fantastic. I don't think we took into account the limited mobility of a couple of people in our group so ended up using taxi's a little more than planned, which wasn't a problem. If you are able bodied then you are only 15 minutes away from the Duomo, 20-30 mins from the Uffizi Gallery, Ponte Vecchio etc & 5-10 minutes from Santa Maria Novella train station. We found the best walking route to the appt from the station was via Via Bernardo Cennini opposite station then left onto Via Faenza, right onto Piazza del Crocifisso & right again into Via Guelfa - less people & better pavements if you're pulling luggage! We were met by a very friendly Mrs Bessa who handed over our 2 sets of keys. Bed settee already made up & whole appt clean & tidy. City tax paid on arrival. Closest taxi rank was at SMN station, otherwise you can order one via an app. Full working kitchen with a dishwasher, fridge/freezer & a washing machine out the back. The appt has everything you need for your stay including wifi & aircon. Two shower rooms with WCs; one off the corridor between the front & back of the appt, which is very narrow but functional. A larger shower room is out the back off the rear bedroom, which has a double & single bed. We ate at the Osteria Vecchio Cancello, which was a few doors down from the appt. Amazing food & amazing staff especially Valentino who served us our steak with a flourish! We also ate at Penta Bistrot (10 mins away) with the lovely Ervin. The slow stewed beef was beautiful. Grocery wise we bought from supermarket Pam & did get a takeaway from the friendly chaps at the Student kebab shop just turn right out of the appt then at the end of Via Guelfa turn left & they are straight in front of you. Thank you, we would definitely stay here again! :) We liked everything so just suggestions! - Extra plug sockets by double bed & maybe an extension lead by the sofa bed would be handy to be able to use the lamp & charge mobile phone at the same time. - If you are a light sleeper. I wasn't able to turn off the aircon unit in the kitchen by sofa bed so it was noisy overnight but I had good ear plugs!
• Larry (9/5): Superb - not applicable: made our own Would be very useful to have a microwave.
• Krystal (9/5): The apartment is beautiful and the beds were so comfortable - Location and check in. Our plane landed late and our baggage took an extra hour to get. We were supposed to meet the host at the apartment at 8:00pm and didn’t get there until 9:20pm. The host waited until we arrived and we’re super friendly and kind. The parking situation in Florence is horrible and driving there is kinda scary. No fault of the host though. We were sent the areas for the best parking areas prior to arrival. I would recommend using public transportation and walking.
• Katelyn (9/5): Spacious apartment in Florence - The location is close to the main station (8 mins walking). The host is very nice and helpful. Plenty of space, beds are comfortable. Having two bathrooms and washing machine was very nice. Wish we could have stayed longer! Nothing.
• Marcia (10/5): Exceptional - Great location to the train station,shopping & restaurants!
• Marie (9/5): Superb -
• Razvan (10/5): - Very nicely located closer to the train station and very walkable area that's very close to the central market and main historic squares. The place itself was clean, spacious, and very comfortable, with lots of beds for multiple people, multiple bathrooms, a full kitchen, air conditioning, and a washing machine.
• Lourdes (9/5): Superb -
• Lương (9/5): Very nice place to visit Florence. - The house is clean and comfortable with air conditioning and two bathrooms, near to the Old quarter of the Florence. There is the kitchen full equipped and washing machine, that was very important for the family with the kids.
• Johanvdm (7/5): Good - Location. Friendly hostess. Washing machine.
• Luigina (7/5): Would stay again regardless of dislikes because ot location and proximity to all - Great location , unconventional layout of space AC unite need to be updated , windows should stay closed especially during heat of summer since the sewage run off from outside encompasses entire space upon entry but completely fine with closed windows after , there a fly situation in there as well probably from windows open and it’s a semi basement space
• Julie-anne (10/5): Exceptional -
• Simon (8/5): Well placed comfortable & clean - It was a perfect location for my trip as it was a matter of a 3 min walk to the Fortezza a Bassa It was very clean and comfortable - quirky too - and quiet too.
• Anonymous (10/5): easy to work with and everything went smooth - The place was clean , comfortable and in a great location nothing
