Guest Reviews

• Rachel (7/5): - A member of staff from the hotel, walked us to the apartment, showed us how to use the lift and switched the fridge on for us. The apartment itself was in an excellent central location, which was the major plus. The apartment was on the second floor of the building and was split-level with a mezzanine layout. Downstairs was the kitchenette and bathroom, while upstairs was the bedroom and walk-in wardrobe. The bed sat on opaque glass flooring, which felt a little strange, and the metal staircase was quite steep. There was a very small lift, only really large enough for two people and a suitcase but it worked. The “welcome box” was fairly minimal — just a tea towel, dishcloth, bin bags, sponge and a tiny bottle of washing-up liquid. Did they think we were going to buy a whole box of dishwasher tablets for a 4 night stay? Toiletries were also basic, with four sachets of shampoo and 2 shower caps provided. The air conditioning worked very well (although it switched off automatically if a window was open). There were TVs upstairs and downstairs, though only one English-language channel. The kitchen was equipped with a dishwasher, oven, hob, microwave, pans, crockery and utensils. But there was NO KETTLE to heat water and just a small espresso coffee maker.  There was a washing machine in the bathroom. Everything looked very clean. I would stay again but would ask for a different apartment. Check-in was at a hotel a few streets away from the apartment itself. Unfortunately when we arrived, the lift at the check in hotel wasn’t working, so I had to leave my husband downstairs with the suitcases while I went up. We had agreed an earlier check-in time when booking, but the receptionist initially argued that we could not check in yet. Thankfully I had written confirmation and she eventually accepted it. However, the actual admin process was incredibly slow — almost 25 minutes just to check two passports, pay the tax, sign one form and locate the keys. We had expected more of a view over the square. Instead, we had a limited view of a side street. To be fair, the description does say that only some apartments overlook the square, so perhaps we should have been more prepared for that, although it still felt disappointing paying the same price for no view and having booked 7 months previous. Anyone with mobility issues would probably struggle in this specific apartment and we found it tricky to negotiate the stairs for the toilet at night. The split-level arrangement and no comfy chairs also made it difficult to relax anywhere but the bed. The shower, positioned over a tiny bath and access partially blocked by the toilet, was also very cramped and difficult to climb into. I also question the lack of privacy as there was a connecting door in our bedroom. Although locked, I could clearly hear a man coughing at night. The main negative for us was the heavy banging noises. During the day it sounded like construction work happening in another apartment, which didn't bother us. Unfortunately, on the final night of our stay, the banging continued past 10pm which made for an uncomfortable evening. We slept well each night though.
• Mario (7/5): - Location Beds
• Volpe (10/5): -
• gilbert (9/5): super - emplacement en plein cœur du centre historique
• Jorge (9/5): - Location, room with a view Front desk present at building.
• Augusto (10/5): Great stay - Location, size, comfort
• Robyn (10/5): Amazing location in a wonderful apartment with great view to the piazza and close to main attractions - Spacious room in perfect location, loved the view to the piazza The pillows too thin
• Zeynep (8/5): Merkezi - Çok merkezi Mayıs ayı ortası gittiğimiz için ısınma sistemi kapalıydı, oda biraz soğuktu. Ancak çift battaniye ile sorunumuzu çözdük.
• Fussell (10/5): The best, wouldn’t stay anywhere else in that price range - Location, internal space with kitchen Absolutely nothing
• Marissa (10/5): Wonderful place to stay and staff were very helpful. - The location was amazing and the actual accommodation was so spacious looking out over the Piazza. Only the rubbish smell on the ground floor near the lift.
• Kyle (9/5): Location was great, great room - Good location, central to all Check in a bit of a process
• Luz (9/5): Maravilloso lugar, cerca de todo !!! - Bonito, tranquilo y limpio Que el check in es en otra dirección
• Mauro (9/5): -
• Nihada (10/5): -
• Edilma (9/5): - A localização é maravilhosa em frente a praça da República. Quarto amplo , tinha frigobar, utensílios micro-ondas.Perto de restaurantes, lojas e cafés O check-in é feito em outro hotel e depois do check-in a funcionária nos acompanha até o hotel.Tem que andar um pouco a pé.Eu estava só com 1 mala de 10kg , mas se for com muitas malas fica difícil se locomover a pé. Não sei se chega uber até o hotel.
• Jean-Claude (9/5): Séjour agréable et des musées magnifiques - Un emplacement excellent pour visiter la ville à pied. Une vue sur la place très animée toute la journée et le soir. Une double fenêtre permet une bonne isolation phonique. Des restaurants sur la place de bonne qualité. La résidence est bien sécurisée avec un double accès avec un" bip" ainsi que pour l'appartement. Le top de l'appartement c'est la découverte des plafonds peints... inoubliable... qui justifie le prix. Pour les visites, privilégier le matin, moins fréquenté. L'après-midi les files d'attente s'allongent... Les italiens ne parlent pas le français. Tout est en italien et anglais dans les musée et les restaurants. L'appartement est bien équipé mais il manquait un micro-onde pour faire réchauffer. Il n'y a qu'une bouilloire et une plaque de cuisson. Thé et infusion... pas de café ... On aurait apprécié une chaine de télévision anglaise ou française avec les canaux correspondants. A ce prix nous avons été étonné d'avoir un petit savon... Pas de gel double ni de shampoing... Quand on arrive en avion cela pose problème... Si l'on peut, éviter les week-end, il y a beaucoup beaucoup de monde...
• Neal (10/5): One night stay to watch Crystal Palace play Fiorentina. Perfect location and staff were very helpful - Absolutely perfect location in the square
• Janine (9/5): Great stay. - Great location and the studio was better than expected. We’d worried the piazza would be noisy but it quieted down at a decent hour. The balconette was nice. The beds could be more comfortable. They were firm and felt inexpensive to me.
• Parasacco (7/5): Qualche piccola pecca ma lo consiglio comunque - Ottima posizione per girare Firenze a piedi, vicino a tutto. Affacciato su piazza Repubblica dove c'è gente fino a tarda notte ma nessun rumore in quanto insonorizzata molto bene. Angolo cottura comodo e fornito di tutto. Si trova al secondo piano, è vero che c'è ascensore, ma per raggiungerlo si devono fare comunque diversi scalini. Poche prese, dovrebbero fornire almeno delle prese multiple...o caricavo il telefono o accendevo l'abatjour....
• jiwa76 (10/5): - Grymt läge med fantastisk våning
• Nicole (10/5): Overall great! - The room looked way better than the pictures. It was spacious and the location was perfect. The check-in location was not at the apartment but it was still great since it was 24 hours.
• MV (7/5): Excellent staff and location; a great value for this price. - The staff is outstanding: exceedingly polite, friendly, attentive, and responsive. The location is excellent. The bed was clean and comfortable. The building itself is quiet. The hairdryer was extremely weak -- make certain to bring your own if that's something to that matters to you. The front door of the building was a bit strange -- sometimes it was locked, sometimes not. There is an interior door that was always locked, BUT you don't want to find a stranger in the vestibule. The latter issue concerned me since I was travelling alone. Be aware, also, that given the apartment's central location, you will hear noise from the street; bring earplugs if you plan to go to sleep before midnight -- if you have earplugs, you will be fine, but without them, you might have a challenge. (That's not the hotel's fault, of course -- it's the very central location, and you can find this issue throughout Florence depending on the street and location of the bedrooms.)
• Maximiliano (5/5): FREEZING cold at night. - Great location FREEZING cold at night. There is no heat only AC. I went early May and it was brutally cold at night with no relief. Prepare to sleep in a walk-in freezer. Apartment is dated and shower head would not stay up…. Basically a state of disrepair but it did the job. Wouldn’t come back because I don’t want to freeze all night and it’s old. If you can get it cheap, then sure
• Matteo (6/5): Posizione eccezionale, migliorabili gli altri aspetti - Straordinaria la posizione centrale in piazza Repubblica. Appartamento ben insonorizzato L’appartamento presenta margini di miglioramento. La TV ha funzionato solo a intermittenza il primo giorno e poi non si è più accesa. L’arredamento andrebbe rivisto, in particolare il tavolo, e le dotazioni di base risultavano essenziali (carta igienica limitata, assenza di canovacci o carta assorbente). Abbiamo soggiornato con un cagnolino, per il quale è stato richiesto un supplemento di €35 indicato come costo per pulizie aggiuntive, senza però servizi o dotazioni dedicate.

• DONIS JARQUIN (10/5): Excelente - EXCELENTE UBICACION, PRECIO Y SERVICIOS
• jenny (10/5): Lovely, romantic stay - The best location, very cute kitchen in a wardrobe Nothing
• ROBERTO (8/5): Residence la Repubblica - Posizione, pulizia, cortesia e disponibilità dello staff All' arrivo in appartamento il frigo era spento, ne avevo bisogno all' arrivo. In bagno consiglio di provvedere ad una sistemazione per gli asciugamani (appendini) e un porta rotolo per la carta igienica. Sono piccole accortezze che a mio avviso fanno la differenza. Per il resto veramente bene pulizia e forniture impeccabili!

• Michaela (10/5): Excellent location, great value for money! - Location N/A
• juan (8/5): - Ubicación perfecta
• Nicole (7/5): - Die Unterkunft ist sehr zentral gelegen. Ich war im Februar dort und es war sehr kalt, vor allem nachts. Geheizt wird über die Klimaanlage - die nachts dann aus ging wodurch es wieder sehr kalt wurde - und die Decke war viel zu dünn.
• Maksoudian (10/5): -
• Jamile (10/5): - Excelente localização! Apartamento simples, mas bem montado e confortável. Chuveiro quente! Ficamos 3 noites em Florença e nos atendeu muito bem. Esqueci um item pessoal no quarto após minha partida, e ao entrar em contato com o responsável, Marcos, fui prontamente atendida, conseguindo recuperar o item esquecido rapidamente, mesmo já estando em outra cidade. Recomendo!

• Şeyma Ayça (10/5): Çok iyi bir konaklama mekanı - Tesisin konumu muhteşemdi. Tam repeblica meydanındaydı. Heryere yürüme mesafesindeydi. Wifi çok iyi çekiyordu. Küçük bir mutfağı vardı. Geniş aile ile kalınabilecek bir konakalama mekanıydı. Güvenli bir yer. Ben kızımla kaldım. Check in işlemini başka bir otelde yapıyorsunuz ama çalışanlar çok ilgili. Biz bulamayacağımızı söyleyince bizi gelip aldılar. Konforlu bir mekan

• Elton (10/5): -
• Gallot (9/5): - Situation exceptionnelle, idéalement situé pour toutes les visites des grands sites incontournables, de 5 à 15mn à pieds. Appartement spacieux et très bien équipé, et très bien insonorisé car la piazza republica est très animée ! Je recommande cet appart'hôtel. Peut-être pas très bien isolé du froid mais le chauffage faisait l'affaire.
• Fei (2/5): Avoid!! Bed bugs - The location is fantastic. It was right in the middle of everything and was right across from Caffé Gilli. The staff was also very friendly and nice. They responded promptly to our concern of bed bugs and moved us to a different room. The place was dirty and had bed bugs! SO gross! I would definitely avoid. The staff promptly switched us to a new room but said there was no way to get reimbursed or compensated. It interfered with our plans too since we had to promptly find a laundromat and wash all our things to try to prevent bringing bed bugs home.
