Guest Reviews

• Maksim (10/5): - הדירה בהרבה יותר יפה ממה שחשבנו מהתמונות. דירה ענקית, מודרנית, נוחה מאוד, מעוצבת. הינו 4 אנשים מבוגרים והיה המון מקום. נקיון ברמה גבוהה. המיקום נהדר, קרובה לכל האטרקציות המרכזיות. החניון בהסדר עם בעלי הדירה במרחק של 2 דקות. נוח ביותר. לנו זה לא הפריע, אבל חשוב לדעת שיש לא מעט מדרגות עד המעלית עליה עולים לקומה של הדירה. וגם בתוך הדירה יש שני מפלסים. כך שזה פחות מתאים לאנשים המתקשים פיזית.
• David (10/5): Beautiful views - The apartment was much more spacious and beautiful than expected. Photos just don't do it justice. It was fun to climb to the top of the Duomo and to the top of the bell tower. We were able to look back at the beautiful apartment. We also found a beautiful place to watch the sunset from a bridge looking toward Ponte Vecchio. We were able to park inside the ZTL apartment at a parking garage across the street from the apartment. We used Google maps to navigate to the apartment and it was quite an adventure. Be sure to carefully map out your path To the garage and don't rely on a navigation map tool.
• Sandra (10/5): A perfect, spacious, gorgeous home away from home! Loved it! - This spacious apartment was perfect in every way for our stay in Florence. It had everything you would need and was beautifully decorated. The location was perfect with a gorgeous view of the Duomo right out the living room window. We loved the space and it really felt like home. We didn’t love the stairs to get up to the elevator but at least there was an elevator. Adding a couple of North American power outlets would be a nice touch.
• Michelle (10/5): Perfect, with plenty of room and easy walking to everything. - Location, size of spaces, modern.
• Giuseppe (10/5): -
• robert (10/5): - Extremely helpful and professional hosts, always there to help as necessary
• ATHANASIOS (10/5): - Η τοποθεσία ,καθαριότητα ,διακόσμηση,άνεση.
• Dongryul (10/5): - 피렌체 여행에 최적의 위치, 모든것이 완벽하게 구비된 객실, 호스트의 섬세함을 느낄 수 있는 주방 피렌체에 오면 항상 이 숙소에 머물 정도로 좋아하는 숙소
• Henriette (10/5): - Lovely apartment and city Very narrow sidewalks
• Helen (9/5): Absolutely loved everything about it - Fantastic location. Well stocked kitchen. Incredibly helpful checking in process and information book. Gorgeous property. Ideally would have blackout blinds in the lounge - particularly if using the sofa bed on the mezzanine floor. A lift to the 1st floor would have been helpful.
• Stephanie (8/5): - Great location, great space, great staff! Laundry was not working
• Karen (10/5): Marvelous stay in the heart of gorgeous Firenze - Wonderful stay. Outstanding location. Large and extremely comfortable apartment. Plenty of space for all of our family. Great and well stocked kitchen. Comfy bedrooms. And did I mention the location? — can’t beat it!! Host was tremendous, and accommodated out changed arrival time. Met us at the door. Helped with out bags. Excellent. It’s a minor thing — you have to walk up a flight of stairs before being able to access the lift to the top floor, where the apartment is located.
• Lisa (9/5): Wonderful Florence apartment in a perfect location, our family loved our stay here! - A beautiful apartment with a perfect location near the Duomo, and a great view of the Duomo from the living room window. The space was large and clean, the beds were comfortable, and our family of 5 had plenty of room. The host was friendly and accommodating. We would definitely stay here again!
• Megan (10/5): Exceptional - Location was perfect and the apartment had everything we needed.
• John (9/5): great florence location - location and the spaciousness very well decorated - beautiful 3 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms the washing machine broke but the managers came promptly to our aid (although it did not get fixed)
• Juliana (10/5): Exceptional -
• Haggai (10/5): Exceptional - Huge apartment in a superb location, with an amazing window view of the dome and tower of the cathedral. Well equipped kitchen, comfortable beds, good WiFi. Hosts are slow to respond through booking message system but quick to respond via WhatsApp. Contrary to some reviews here it was quiet at night, even over the weekend (but we were there during Pasqua weekend, so maybe it was different than regular weekends). The garage next to the apartment (Garage del Bargello) is quite comfortable, although for stays longer than a few hours they take the car to a distant garage and you have to call one hour in advance for them to bring it back. However the staff was nice and everything went smoothly. You get a discount for staying in the Residenza Covoni (but you have to remind them that on every entrance). Driving through the ZTL to the garage was surprisingly chill and easy. The balcony in the upper floor is dangerous for children, with the sofa so close to the glass fence; luckily we were able to move the sofa away from the glass. The elevator doesn't get to the ground floor, so be prepared for 35 stairs until you reach it. Beware of the taps, they are a bit too long and with the high water pressure would spray water on you if you open them too much... Also, although mostly very clean there were a few not so clean spots - under the beds and sofas and behind the internal doors, and a large moldy spot on the ceiling of the downstairs bedroom.
• Orlando (10/5): Exceptional - Our host, Greta, is wonderful she explained everything about the apartment in detail. Nothing
• Alexander (10/5): Bliss - You're never 100% before you check into an Air bnb. From the second the front door was opened, I was struck with the spaciousness of the place. High ceilings, Christmas tree up, heating on, bottle of wine and some local honey as a gift. Right in the center of everything. Lovely bars and cafes nearby. Santa Croce church and the Duomo a stones throw away. The place was ideal. Plenty of space for the 4 of us. Greta was great. She was there on time with a smile, gave us the instructions on the area, an app to download, had decorations up. Value for money, great stay, Florence is a dream. If I'm back in Florence again, I'll stay Via Ghibellina. BRAVA!! 10/10 I didn't like having to leave...
• Dongryul (10/5): Exceptional - Wonderful Location with great view. Everything is prepared nothing
• Julie (10/5): Beautiful apartment! Great location! - This apartment is beautiful! The pictures do not show its real beauty. It’s in a great location! There are great shops and restaurants on the same block. It’s convenient to everything. The host is so friendly! We had a wonderful trip! Grazie Mille
• Karineh (10/5): Memorable in every way. - The home was by far the best we had on our trip and a highlight. Nothing beats the view of the duomo from the living room. Not to mention the parking garage was so close by to the apartment. We had the most comfortable and wonderful stay. We hope to return again soon!
• Bojan (10/5): The boys in Florence - The aprtment is amazing, perfectly equiped and clean. The location is perfect. Mornings and evenings are beautiful with the view of Duomo. Accessible garage with guaranteed spot is located accross the street 👌 Hospitality - above and beyond 🙏 Everything was easy! Thank you for everything! That we only had 3 days in Florence…
• Kristina (10/5): Great place to stay. - Great set up. Great location. Love that they have someone explain all the features to you. The stairs to get to the apartment.
• Bobbie (10/5): A wonderful place to relax and enjoy Firenze. - The location was outstanding and the view was amazing! It was clean, bright and comfortable. Air conditioning worked great. There are about 30 stairs up to the elevator which could be difficult for some.
• Julia (10/5): Everything was fabulous and wonderful. The view outside our window of the Duomo was a bonus! - They met us at the door when we arrived by taxi. Very easy to communicate with them and kept up to date with our arrival plans. There is one flight of stairs before the lift, just fyi. Nothing!
• Jeff (8/5): Stunning, great host, loud - Stunning apartment, beautiful and impeccably clean. Host was waiting for us, incredibly friendly, helpful had cold water for us in the fridge, a welcome gift, amazing. Unbelievable views, central location, love the host, love the apartments.. But Thr noise. There is no way around it and you need to know about it. The level of screaming, yelling and crowd noise is unbearable, and lasts past 3am. Groups of 40-50 kids gather outside all night long. A restaurant next door caters to school and young tour groups who hang out and block the doorway. It is impossible to sleep in the main bedroom because of the noise. Upstairs is better, but till requires ear plugs. It was a frustrating stay as we dreaded bedtime. Perhaps upgraded windows may help.
• Thomas (9/5): wonderful apartment and hosts - amazing apartment, kind hosts, lovely amenities. The good news is that it is centrally located with stunning Duomo views. The downside is that, due to the excellent location, it is noisy at night. To no fault of the apartment or owners, of course! That is city living. Just noticeable at night from the main bedroom, though the upper level bedrooms towards the back of the apartment were much more insulated from street noise.
• Laura (9/5): Absolutely stunning modern designed apartment with a view of Duomo. - Fabulous modern apartment with a lot of space and beautiful design finishes. The location was close to Duomo and 8 min walk to both Uffizi and Accademia. 4 bathrooms! The hosts were wonderful. Kitchen well equipped, tote shopping bags in rooms and glass water jugs provided to store the filtered drinking water on tap. Great restaurant next door and nice welcome binder with other recommendations. Several guidebooks available in the apartment to borrow for you excursions. The only slight issue was the street noise, which could have been because we were there around the New Years holidays.
• Kathleen (10/5): wonderful, amazing place to stay with great location and fantastic facilities. - Location was superb. Accommodation and facilities were fantastic. Hosts were terrific. View of the Duomo from the lounge window was incredible. The place was so close to all the attractions we could walk everywhere. Having to climb 4 sets of stairs to get to the lift was a bit daunting but grateful the lift was there for the rest of it. Would stay there again any time and recommend it to everyone. Hosts were very quick to help solve any problem. The stairs to the lift were the only negative but manageable as was travelling with someone who could get luggage up and down the stairs at the beginning.
• Graham (9/5): Wonderful stay in the heart of Florence - Character filled, stylish accommodation in a wonderful location. Outstanding views. Lots of thoughtful touches from the hosts who were great to deal with. Highly recommended. While we were perfectly fine with it, just be aware you do need to carry suitcases up a floor before accessing the lift to the 3rd floor. Well worth it though on arrival at the apartment! Amazing views and ambience.
• Lourdes (9/5): Superb - Location, space, comfort
• Tom (10/5): Exceeded expectations - probably the best apartment stay I have had! - This apartment is so well positioned in Florence only a few minutes walk from most of the major sights. It is a big, light, airy apartment with good aircon, lovely bedrooms and each has a shower. So well equipped inc kitchen. Very comfortable. Will definitely return.
• Carole (10/5): Beautiful place with all the amenities! - Amazing location. Beautiful apartment with all the amenities needed. Loved our stay here! The only thing was having to climb a few flights of stairs to get to the elevator. It wasn’t bad for me and my family but for someone who doesn’t do well with stairs it may be a challenge.
• Samuel (9/5): Superb -
• Neil (9/5): Great spot. Lovely host. - Great location. Good facilities 3rd bed was a fold out without privacy which worked out ok for us but wasn’t what we had understood from the website.
• Pam (10/5): Excepectional! best location, very clean, great views, made our trip to Florence incredible -
• Kathleen (8/5): Very good -
• Caroline (8/5): Florence comfy stay - The apartment was spacious and as shown on Booking.com. The young lady meeting us was very helpful. The kitchen was fully equipped, 4 bathrooms was right for our group of 6. various plugs for sinks did not work as the back levers were missing. One of the reasons i chose the apartment was for the washing machine but it was not working. ( fortunately there was a pay laundromat close by) the location was noisy at night, being so close to the Duomo.
• Irina (10/5): Fabolous property to stay at!!! - The property was stunning, very spacious and modern. The location couldn't get any better as it was right in the center of the historic district close to a lot of restaurants and landmarks.
• Linlan (10/5): amazing - everything is perfect ! parking fee is quite expensive because of TzL zone limited
• John (10/5): A fabulous place to stay in the heart of Florence - stunning apartment with lots of high quality finish and style. Like staying in your own home but with beautiful Italian decor and an amazing view of the Duomo from the main window the space, the quality of sheets and bedding , the provision of all the little things you need. being made to feel welcome, the location , the lighting, the privacy and the security.
• Samantha (10/5): Exceptional -
• Yizhak (9/5): Superb - The apartment is clean, well-equipped, and located in the center (within walking distance of all attractions). The water pressure is good. The air conditioner is good. The host is friendly and the directions were clear (I drove to the location) Noise from the street enters the bad room at lower level. The elevator starts from the first floor (not the ground floor).
• Gillian (10/5): Amazing place to stay - The apartment was in a perfect location. It was very comfortable and tasteful. Lots of personal touches included which just made our stay that bit more special. I would highly recommend and would definitely stay again. The only downside was that the lift only went to the 1st floor so my mum struggled a bit getting up the 40 stairs before she could get in the lift as she is 81. I definitely didn’t spoil the experience
• Rikke (10/5): Immaculate apartment, perfect location, equipped with everything we could possibly need. -
