Guest Reviews

• Monika (10/5): -
• Norah (9/5): Overall wonderful stay - Great spacious apartment Two bathrooms with two showers Very convenient for a party of 4 Great location with a beautiful outdoor yard And the owner and customer service was superb ! They were a great help since we arrived to florence until we left The cleanliness could be improved The main bedroom AC wasn’t that cold However the owner helped and cleaned the filter which made it slightly better
• Kehinde (9/5): Excellent, beautiful, clean place to stay in Florence! - Beautiful location, clean and light facilities. Martina and the cleaning lady were wonderful in getting the place ready for us on very short notice. Some minor wear and tear.
• Reinette (10/5): We will definitely stay there again - Location is superb They plumbing in the laundry needs a service
• Raluca (7/5): Best choice considering the last minute reservation. The location was fabulous. - Excellent location. It was visible that the apartment used to be a very luxurious one a long time ago. The bathrooms were very well equipped and with all Italian amenities which I personally deeply appreciate. Sheets clean, bath towels clean. Lighting in the apartment very nice. There was a strong mold smell in the apartment. The air conditioning system most probably requires cleaning and this is why the air in the apartment wasn’t very clean throughout the stay. The apartment wasn’t cleaned very well, the furniture in the kitchen esecially looked quite old. Although there was a small parc in front of the apartment, there were always 6-10 food delivery guys getting together every evening in front of the apartment so it was not possible to stay out. Felt quite unsafe when arriving at the location later in the night (11 PM or so). Sometimes they were also a little bit too noisy. The sofa (the so called 2nd bed) was not confortable. Maybe the host should consider a second bed instead of the sofa. As I mentioned it to the manager of the property I arrived really late (around 11 PM in the night) and I asked about a store where I can buy water. He told me that there are stores opened around the clock but this was not true. Would have been nice to leave a bottle of water. Also, if I may make the suggestion: a Nespresso coffee machine would be a plus for the property. The property manager was not as available as one would expect when it comes to such a property. I tried calling the number that was provided based on the Booking reservation but no one anawered. They preferred the conversation over booking mesaages which I did not find very pleasant. But, it was a very good location and the fact that it was not top floor made it a good choice during the hot summer days that we experienced throughout our stay there. Slippers would be also nice.
• Uri (10/5): A wonderful, peaceful stay in a perfectly located, cozy apartment! - The location is absolutely perfect – very central, in a lively touristic area, and we always felt safe walking around, even at night. Despite being so central, the apartment was surprisingly quiet and peaceful, which made it ideal for both rest and relaxation. We arrived as a couple with my parents, and all of us felt very comfortable. The apartment is cozy and homey, spotlessly clean, and the beds are very comfortable – perfect after long days of exploring Florence. It truly feels like a home away from home and is suitable for families, couples, or solo travelers. It’s worth every penny. Our hosts were responsive and helpful throughout our stay, which we really appreciated. The only small downsides were the Wi-Fi and the towels. The Wi-Fi didn’t work well in the second bedroom (although it was fine in the main areas), so we sometimes used our own mobile internet there. It would also be nice to have a few more towels included, and perhaps slightly better quality, especially since extra towels need to be purchased. One additional improvement that could make the stay even more comfortable for longer visits would be a dryer. There isn’t much space to dry clothes, so for guests staying a week or more and wanting to do their own laundry – which is one of the advantages of an apartment over a hotel – a dryer would be very convenient. That said, these are minor suggestions compared to how much we enjoyed our stay. Overall, we had a fantastic experience and would happily stay here again and highly recommend this apartment to anyone visiting Florence. We honestly liked almost everything 😊 The only small things were: The Wi-Fi didn’t work well in the second bedroom, so we sometimes had to use our own mobile internet there. It would have been nice to have a few more towels included, and maybe slightly better quality, instead of needing to purchase extra. For longer stays, a dryer would be very convenient since there isn’t much space to hang and dry clothes.
• Gary (10/5): Luxury Florence apartment - Beautiful interior. Excellent location
• Martina (10/5): -
• Belyea (10/5): -
• Anna (10/5): -
• Linda (8/5): To sum up a well appointed well located property with a few adjustments could be five star - Great location spotlessly clean really well equipped spacious excellent bed in main room first class linen and duvets Excellent showers and stylish bathrooms Too cold for me couldn’t get the heating above 21%Bed in the second room was a sofa bed and not at all comfortable I felt if it’s let as a 2 bed property it should have 2 beds The bathrooms were beautiful but quite dangerous a lot of glass around no grab bars at all the floor of the shower was smooth marble no rubber mats and very slippy The main sitting room was a bit disappointing furnished with another uncomfortable sofa bed and a few hard chairs felt bare The location was very central but there was a little park with Ben he’s outside which was frequented with some doggy looking characters at night I felt uncomfortable returning at night if I had been alone or with only other women I would have been scared They didn’t approach us but were loud noisy etc
• Abiola (9/5): - The location, the cleanness of the apartment and the readiness of the host to support at every point Nothing
• Watcharapon (10/5): Great place to stay and excellent location. - Very nice stay with everything you need. Excellent location, walkable to main highlights in town. Perfect to accommodate a family of 5. No elevator.
• Danielle (10/5): Exceptional - Perfect location! Not too close to the hustle and bustle but close enough! Loved being across from the Arno, and the little park was nice!
• Debra (10/5): Amazing stay in Florence - Outstanding property with terrific location and wonderful amount of space-easily could accommodate 2 families. Not one concern.
• Mark (10/5): A gorgeous, tranquil place from which we could explore the highlights of Florence. - Everything! Wonderful location; beautiful interior; really comfortable beds; Martina was quick to respond to all of our questions and very pleasant; peaceful; grocery store nearby. We were fortunate to find Villoresi Mansion and would love to stay there again the next time we’re in Florence.
• Rodolphe (8/5): Luxury stay in Florence - A stunning apartment in Florence, perfectly situated along the banks of the Arno River and just a two-minute stroll from the iconic Ponte Vecchio. This beautifully designed residence exudes luxury and elegance, offering a harmonious blend of comfort and style. Experience the charm of Florence from your own exquisite retreat. The apartment experiences some humidity, which can make it feel a bit chilly at times. The heating system could use some improvement. Additionally, the bathroom walls show signs of this excess moisture, so a dehumidifier would be a valuable addition. The washing machine needs a drying option. Both shower heads also require a thorough cleaning ...
• Barbara (9/5): Very comfortable. - Loved the location.. Beautifully remodeled with all the latest appliances but had no idea how to use them.
• Farone (7/5): Good -
• Joanne (10/5): Exceptional - the location and decor of the aprtament were exceptional.
• Stefan (8/5): Good central location - Excellent location, central, the property is well kept and pretty large. Nice bathrooms and kitchen. The entrance permits to take off the shoes without entering the property. All very clean. Individual issues with the appliances: very simple and cheap filter coffee machine, rusted moka machine. Out of the three beds, two were sofa beds. Scaled shower heads. The public garden in front of the property is full of dog droppings (I understand this is not a responsibility of the property). Strange smell of methane in the entrance.
• Casey (5/5): Passable - The property was in a convenient location a short walking distance to most of the activities we did around the city. This was also a very spacious property, with enough room to spread out and unpack our luggage. Bed and bedding were comfortable. There were several negatives that made us not comfortable with our stay. 1) the property we stayed in was 5a which is located on the ground floor, directly within a very busy park, which remained busy at all hours of the day and night. There were people sitting on benches in the park right outside of our bedroom, and we didn’t always feel safe when returning home at night. 2) While the property appeared clean and modern in the surface, we discovered some serious mold issues in the bathroom. There was peeling paint in the ceiling of the shower, mold on the walls where towels usually hang, and mold on the bathroom sink. 3) there was a very strong odor in the kitchen area, either sewage or a natural gas smell. We pretty much confined ourselves to the bedroom to avoid the stench 4) we were asked to leave cash in the apartment for the city tax payment for our stay, we were told this would be picked up in the morning the day after we arrived. It was still not picked up when I returned back to get ready for the evening around 5pm. They finally came to pick it up while I was in the shower that evening, which was quite terrifying. They also did not lock the front door when they left the property. 5) having the washing machine for laundry was basically useless, a small load of laundry took over 2 hours to wash and there was no proper space for hanging clothing to dry. My clothes were still wet a day after washing them
• Frith (8/5): amazing location and nicely presented flat -
• Susan (5/5): Great location but not for people with allergies. - This is in a great location between the ponte Vecchio and the next bridge up. Quiet and away from the crush of people. Lovely park just in front of the apartment. Walking distance to restaurants, an excellent market and gelateria. The biggest drawback was the oppressive presence of mildew/mold. Bath towels never dried…spots of mold on the wall where they hung. Did one wash of light lingerie that took two days to “dry” but all the clothes repacked for the next stop just felt damp. My husband was severely impacted by the presence of mold…he spent most nights hacking up mucus due to the fungus in the air. We were there when there was no heat on or AC so maybe there are other times of the year when the smell of mildew isn’t so impactful but the owners could help the situation by running dehumidifiers to dry out the apt. Even the sofa in the living area felt damp. It would also have been helpful to have a guide to the appliances and additional trash containers with instructions on sorting. Also, one of the hair dryers just blows cool air.
• Narula (10/5): Wonderful stay - I like everything about the apartment, the location, cleanliness, co-ordination with the host was super easy and quick. The apartment is located in the heart of the city real close to the Uffizi museum.
• Laura (10/5): Excellent - The location is perfect. The apartment is on the ground floor of a small house, in a little park/garden on the banks of the river, where you can walk over the bridge and in 5 mins be in the old town. It was a real find. The apartment and interior was beautiful, and of high quality, with everything you need for a short or longer stay. We’ll definitely come here again!!! Whilst the quality of the apartment and interior was very high the sofa bed mattress needs replacing to ensure a comfortable sleep. Unfortunately we could feel all of the springs…
• Magda (9/5): Beautiful apartment in a great location! - Beautiful apartment, comfortable and huge beds, view of the Duomo and very close to everything! Also easy access to on-street parking right in front of the apartment. We would definitely rent here again but we would only stay two nights and spend the rest of our time in Tuscany. The apartment is abuts a park. During the day, it’s a perfectly pleasant place with art classes and locals enjoying the view. In the evening, we noticed some homeless man sleeping on the bench and a few gatherings. No safety concerns or noise complaints, just not ideal.
• J (10/5): Exceptional -
• Ellouise (7/5): The location was amazing! We paid a premium for this accommodation and it did not fully meet my expectations. - Location was amazing! Apartment was Spacious The Televisions were not working. Light switches worked intermittently. Mosquitoes somehow made their way into the property even though we kept doors and windows closed, we suspect they came in through a gap at rhetorical bottom of the bottom of the front door. The main bathroom shower was leaking under rhetorical door.
• Sevasti (10/5): Our host was very quick to respond and answer questions and concerns we had. - This was an exceptional property. It was beautifully decorated and clean. I stayed here with my family and there were 5 of us. The beds were very comfortable and we felt the most at home here. I will definitely be returning to Florence and I will definitely stay here again. The location is perfect, walking distance to great restaurants and shops. We couldn’t have picked a better location to stay at. The only negative was the AC in the Master bedroom was on a timer and would shut off after 2 hours. With that it got hot in the middle of the night. There may have been a way to reset the timer but we couldn’t figure it out but this wouldn’t stop me from staying at this property again.
• Stella (6/5): Pleasant -
• Thomas (8/5): Very good - Fantastic location near all the main sites, very stylishly decorated. The marble bathrooms are exquisite. Comfortable and larger than normal beds. Home away from home. Our only issue is that if you are accommodating more than 2 people, then you need to provide comfortable seating for four people. This apartment lacked two comfortable chairs or an additional sofa. The lack of suitable comfortable seating for four people.
• Mohammad (10/5): Very nice place in very good location - Super clean, warm, comfortable, and nice apartment. I really recommend it 👍🏻 Nothing
• Nguyen (8/5): Good stay !! Quiet neighborhood. Great location to Uffizi Gallery. - Apartment is in a great location - less than 10 minutes walk across the river from the Uffizi Gallery and 5 minutes to Ponte Vecchio. Large apartment with plenty of room and storage for 4 adults with 5 luggage. Very nice bathrooms - especially the beautiful master bath. Living room is huge with big windows open to the outside park/garden. Kitchen is somewhat small - with just enough amenities. Utensils looks dated. Refrigerator is good size. Both bedrooms are large, nicely decorate, with comfortable queen-size beds. Rate a 8.5/10 We couldn't find the apartment for over 30 minutes after the taxi dropped us off because the address in the check-in instructions was wrong. Have to call the host to get directions. Owner needs to fix this: it is inside the garden at Lungarno Torrigiani, 3 (Google Giardino Martin Lutero park/garden). Would have been a 9.0 if this was fixed.
• Kelley (10/5): Exceptional -
• Christine (9/5): Superb - A beautifully appointed apartment very suitable for 2 couples. Apartment was well equipped with all you needed for a short stay. Problem with the wifi dropping out regularly. Owner got it going again but it dropped out again.
• Tarpey (9/5): Great apartment in a fantastic location. - The setting was perfect with a small park in front of the building. It was also very close to a number of landmarks. The apartment itself was lovely with a beautiful master suite. Even the pull-out couch bed was comfortable! Instructions for the A/C unit would have been helpful. Some small kitchen amenities, like a few tea bags, coffee pods, or bottled water, would have been appreciated.
• Anne (6/5): The location of this apartment made up for the deficiencies. - The location was fabulous-just across the Arno and close to Ponte Vecchio and Uffizi Gallery. The master bedroom was nicely appointed and the bathrooms were bright and modern. This is a great apartment for a couple or single person who isn't interested in spending a lot of time there. There were no instructions on how to use the appliances. The second bedroom had a fold out couch that wasn't comfortable. The second bedroom and living room were in the back of the apartment and were very dark because the apartment was "built into a hill" and was in a basement. There was only a single small window in each of these rooms near the ceiling and the living room wasn't "usable" because it was so dark. The wifi was was very spotty and didn't work at all in the second bedroom or living room.
• Jessica (10/5): Totally recommend and would love to visit again. - The park outside was beautiful. The location was awesome. Very comfortable and charming accommodations. Wish we stayed longer! Maybe a nespresso maker. Got a little addicted to those in Europe. They do have a coffee maker and electric kettle, so you can still enjoy some tea and coffee.
• Inna (10/5): Exceptional -
• Taylor (10/5): We really enjoyed our stay and would recommend to anyone looking for a nice stay in Florence. - We loved this property. It was beautiful,clean, and easy to great location. We got some bug bites from mosquitos that somehow made it inside.
• Meghana (10/5): Exceptional -
• Susan (10/5): Would stay there again in a heartbeat. - Location was fantastic and it was clean and comfortable. Sometimes late at night kids partied in the area in front.
• Amber (9/5): Great house for family with two babies in a very walkable location. - Beautiful and in a great location for families. The second bed was not that comfortable
• Ganti (10/5): Beautiful central location and spacious house , loved the whole experience - Very central location and amenities . House was spacious for us and charming, the bathrooms are spacious and beautiful, there is a yard worth benches and tress where we can sit just outside to relax or watch or have my breakfast and rad a book in the mornings and evenings. The owner did not provide enough toilet tissues, no kitchen tissues which was disappointing after a long travel. Would have been lovely to have a small milk and some tea bags too.
• Laura (9/5): Fabulous apartment close to the city! Highly recommend. - Wonderful location close to city, close to a good supermarket and had a beautiful view with a park in front. Washer and full kitchen, amazing. It really felt like a palace. No dryer, and really nowhere to dry clothes.
• Juliann (7/5): Excellent location, with easy access to Ponte Vecchio and main attractions. - Location was excellent, so that we were able to walk everywhere. Cooking facilities and bathrooms were excellent. We paid the city tax by leaving it on the table as asked, but were later told we had to pay for it again. Someone had obviously entered the apartment and taken the cash off the table. This is not a satisfactory method of collecting city tax and we weren't happy with staff letting themselves in during the stay.
• Julia (10/5): It was fabulous we had a very enjoyable experience in Florence. - It was on the south side of Florence which is quieter but your still close to everything. It’s a great size and lovely style and has all the modern conveniences including a washing machine. The sofa bed in the second bedroom could be a bed instead for comfort given there is a living room as well.
• Dimatteo (10/5): Exceptional -
• Chris (10/5): beautiful stay -
• Ana (10/5): Exceptional -
• Menachems-law (10/5): exelent apartment supirior - perfect! location . rooms. bath. super .very recomended . very very good was exelent parking expensive . lack of toiletpaper
• Carolan (10/5): Highly recommend this property and will use again when visiting Florence - The cleanliness, facilities and location/views as situated right beside the river
• Mazen (8/5): Very good -
• Linzi (8/5): Great location, amazing set up esp in bathroom and kitchen. Beds very uncomfortable esp the sofa beds with springs pokin - The location and the villa layout was lovely . Two bathrooms, one sort of an ensuite if you close one of the top doors to one of the two lounge areas The beds and pillows … owner needs to invest in better pillows and mattress toppers (especially on the two sofa beds) the springs were poking through abs became extremely hard to sleep on - even for my 2 year old who ended up most of the time in our bed (the master bedroom) as she couldn’t get comfortable and ‘hurting her back’ . A mattress topper would have been amazing! Needed a dryer installed! Great washing machine but very small clothes line to hang wet clothes and with no dryer took 2 days to dry things. Not good when with a 2 year old and carrying hand luggage only for a months trip! Keep an eye on the aircon too- there is a timer set, so the aircon goes off after 90 mins… the heatwave we experienced meant getting up several times in the night before learning how to change settings - it’s not easy and there are no instructions!! Also the aircon in the main bedroom and the kitchen dinning is behind a cupboard and curtains, so the window gets super cold? Those areas not so much- too rooms get nice and cool though Finally the house is behind (you have to walk through the park to get to house) a park and so there are lots of people outside the house at all times of day / night. Made for first 2 nights feeling a little worried , but all was fine
• Tatiana (10/5): This property is a must when in Florence - This property is a must when in Florence. I had a blast. Very high-end. I even took pictures to change some of the things in our house. Great finishes all around the house (bathrooms, kitchen, living room and bedrooms. The size of the rooms was excellent. The location also couldn't be better. You can even see Ponte Vecchio when you step outside the garden in front of the property. So you can walk everywhere. I will be back.
• Gail (9/5): It was great. - Great location. Beautiful, clean apartment in a great position. Being informed we owed €90 for cleaning charge when it was included in our original charge and had been paid.
• Joleen (10/5): Exceptional -
• Jaweria (7/5): Good -
• Kristen (10/5): When return to Florence—THIS is where we are staying again! - Beautiful, clean and in the perfect location!
• Richard (9/5): Superb - The location and view was perfect and the apartment was charming! The decor was very pretty and made you feel comfortable. kitchen area is a limited and appliances did not work properly. The air conditioner could be better.
• Carolyn (9/5): Wonderful location. Very comfortable. - Fantastic location and views from the property. nothing
• Michelle (10/5): Enjoyed Florence immensely from this comfy apartment with a park in the front yard. - Great location and very comfortable. Hosts were readily available and very helpful. Nothing, it was perfect.
• Carol (8/5): Fab location, stylish flat with comfy beds and good showers. Not so good on the details. - Excellent location, attractive, roomy apartment, very comfy beds, lots of more or less instant warm water and good pressure in the showers (a bit slow in the handbasins) Tiny dark black kitchen with high end appliances but not well equipped with crockery (non induction frying pan for induction hob!) etc. Also strange cupboard/extractor unit over the hob with sharp edges and corners that are potentially lethal to anyone over 1m70. Quite mean with supplies - coat hangers, toilet rolls, kitchen basics. Only one three seater sofa (there were four of us) but room for more comfy chairs. Electricity tripped if you tried to boil a kettle with the heating on (it was November). Fortunately, this was one question she did answer and it was easy enough to fix. Host is very poor communicator.
• Aleece (9/5): wonderful experience we would stay there again. - we loved the location . the apartment was very beautiful and well appointed. the floors were not very clean . the beds were not as comfortable as I had hoped for the price. a de-humidifier and fan for air circulation would have been a nice .
• Anonymous (10/5): Exceptional -
• Ashley (9/5): Perfect location - the location was fantastic, it was spacious and comfortable. would definitely recommend nothing in particular
• Mehmet (8/5): Satisfied and will stay again. - Location is really perfect. Needs better coffee machine and bed in second bedroom.
• Rafid (10/5): Geat location stylish apartment. Quiet though looks out to park which can get busy. - Classy decoration well equipped home from home A few more pillows AC is behind curtain which restricts air flow
