Guest Reviews

• Maria (10/5): Stile toscano, garbo europeo - Posizione eccellente e strategica, appartamento molto accogliente, con un forte tocco toscano, comodo e spazioso, rispondente alle attese; host gentilissimo e disponibile. Metterei la macchinetta del caffè
• Holyub (9/5): - Le style authentique Isolation phonique
• Antonella (10/5): -
• Gregory (8/5): - Appartement de caractère idéalement situé au calme,a deux pas de la gare et quelques minutes des monuments de la ville. Très bon accueil de Robert.
• Pashova (9/5): - Great location, friendly host. It is very close to the train station and attractions. A little more could be desired in terms of cleanliness.
• Silvio_66 (10/5): Ottimo soggiorno - Ottima la posizione, pochi minuti dalla stazione e dal centro storico di Firenze. Ottima anche la disponibilità di Robert che ha fornito tutte le informazioni necessarie per rendere migliore il nostro soggiorno. Appartamento spazioso, pulito, silenzioso e dotato di tutto quanto necessario. Nulla in particolare, unica cosa che si può segnalare è che le scale di accesso potrebbero risultare ostiche per chi ha problemi di mobilità
• mauro (10/5): Ottima location - Rustico e tipico ma perfetto Nulla
• Fabio (10/5): - Ottima posizione, vicino la stazione Santa Maria Novella, zona molta centrale ben fornita di supermercati e ristoranti.
• carlos (10/5): - All. Near the center and tourist spot. Walking distance to pitti palace
• Elena (10/5): - Appartamento silenzioso in pieno centro storico vicinissimo a tutte le attrazioni turistiche, ristoranti, bar, supermercati, negozi e stazione ferroviaria. L'appartamento è molto grande, adatto per una famiglia, luminosissimo. Il bagno è grande con bidet e lavatrice grande con bidet e lavatrice e il letto è molto comodo. La cucina è caratteristica toscana accessoriata di tutto il necessario per cucinare. C'è sia aria condizionata sia riscaldamento che permettono una temperatura confortevole. Robert, l'host è stato gentilissimo e mi ha dato moltissimi suggerimenti per cose da fare, posti pazzeschi dove mangiare la cucina tipica toscana. Consigliatissimo, ritornerò molto presto sicuramente! Grazie Robert!!!
• Godeliva Belva Gavrila (10/5): - it feels like home, so cozy, the owner so nice and he give us panettone i still feel cold even the heater on and the heater is automatic
• Eleonora (10/5): Ottima posizione, posto accogliente e host disponibile - Posto accogliente, ottimo host Nulla
• MÁRQUEZ (6/5): - La decoración y la ubicación Para nada cómodo en el sofá cama. Debajo de la cama principal no estaba limpio. Complicado bajar la persiana principal. Poca luz en todo el apartamento ( bombillas muy tenues). De la cocina no puedo decir nada porque no la utilicé.. El aire caliente, por ley del gobierno, no se puede encender hasta el 8 de noviembre.... Y a mí, personalmente no me gustan las mantas ( en ningún sitio), así que pasé algo de frío.
• Magda (7/5): Good as a base to sleep in centre, not many facilities otherwise - Location is very central and the apartment is big enough for a family of four, considering that the kitchen is in the living room, but still a bit separated, so that it's still possible to stay there in the evening if a kid is sleeping on the sofa, as it was our case. The sofa bed is quite uncomfortable, the number of glasses, cups, and in general kitchen utensils are insufficient. It's good as an apartment where you only sleep, but don't plan to cook or heat food for kids. In general also not so child-friendly for small kids, as it has high chairs and pieces of furniture that can break. Also, some electric plagues are detached from the wall and look dangerous. The whole apartment would need a bit more maintenance, as it looks very much used by tourists all the time. I would also suggest to leave some slippers to use at home as the floor is very cold (and in the days we were there it was raining and there was no hitting, so we could not keep our wet shoes home)
• VATSLAU (8/5): -
• Franco (8/5): -
• Huayi (8/5): Pleasant host, pleasant place. - Traditional style with beamed ceilings. One electrical outlet needs repair, but was still functioning.
• Marco (10/5): Posizione perfetta e a due passi da tutto, alloggio accogliente e pulito. Spero di tornarci presto! -
• Serhii (10/5): -
• Agatha (9/5): Wonderful stay - Location of the apartment is excellent, short walk to the city centre and train station. Robert, our host was very helpful to us when we needed him with some travel concerns and general assistance in getting to know the area. The apartment was rustic and spacious, we enjoyed our stay in beautiful Florence. Not a big issue for us, but some people maybe put off with the steps to get to the apartment, no lift
• Roberto (9/5): Superb -
• Rakesh (7/5): Stay in Florence - Kitchen and a working washing machine. Central location. Owner was very prompt in responding to messages. Bath area is very cramped. No lift and steep stairs make getting to the apartment a difficult task especially with heavy luggage. Bed isn't very comfortable. Room heater was set to work only at 18C, as per rule according to owner, but for us coming from India it's difficult to get used to.
• Kien (7/5): Good -
• Svetlana (10/5): Amazing 🤩 - Style, location It was a little bit cold, but it’s common for this time of the year in Italy
• Tracy (10/5): Great place to rent for our family of 4. Location and price were exactly what we needed for our short visit in Florence - Robert was very friendly and accommodating. The location was a perfect home base to explore the city. I loved that while the location is near the train station and the area around is very busy, the apartment is on a quiet street. The apartment was perfect for our family of 4. It was really a beautiful and comfortable place for us to relax and enjoy our trip to Florence. The kitchen could use a few more utensils, like a bread knife, but Robert did explain that there are strict laws on what they can and can’t provide as vacation rental company, so that might be the reason. Be prepared to walk up 2 flights of narrowed stairs, pack appropriately for that.
• Michelle (10/5): Lovely rustic accommodation and very spacious. - Close to train station, clean and tidy Two flights of stairs up!
• Baskar (10/5): Cute and lovely house - Perfect cozy cute apartment. It was very neat. Had a fully equipped kitchen and fridge with enough utensils. The location was very close to train station and close to all major attractions. Lots of restaurnts nearby . Host was very friendly and helpful. Spacious living room and bedroom with large beds. The house had a real rustic feel. Highly recommend
• Belgin (10/5): Exceptional - The house was very close to the train station and the historical center. The house was very clean and organized. The host was very helpful.
• Leva (9/5): Great staying - Room, host and location were great The entrance and stair were not the best but just a minor issue
• Susanna (6/5): Pleasant - Very good location close to the railway station and the sights of Florence. The host could have been more polite.
• Krishna (8/5): Very good - Great central location and very close to the train station. Cozy spot with plenty of space for a couple. Bathroom could use a refresh and proper ventilation.
• Aref (6/5): Pleasant - The owner was a nice man, the inside of the apartment was beautiful, and the location was good. The apartment had two big problems Firstly, was the stairs that I couldn't carry the luggage easily (second floor). Secondly, the neighbor upstairs made many sounds from night to morning that I couldn't sleep comfortably.
• Joseph (10/5): Tuscan retreat near the train station - The location is great and the apartment is clean and comfortable. It was a great Tuscan feel and the host was very accommodating! Nothing to complain about!
• Maria (6/5): Pleasant - The location was good, near the train station, easy to walk everywhere. Our host Robert was very good and accomodating, he met us at the property gave us map of the city explained how to get around the city and gave us recommendation of good eats. The building was old, steep stairs, no elevator, too narrow hallway that is not even lit. We have to use our phone lights to walk the hallway. The host changed our room last minute and gave us a room on the 3rd floor w/c is 4th floor in US standard. The rooms were dark not enough lighting in the entire unit. Airconditioning not working half of the time.
• Tyson (8/5): Very good - Good location, friendly staff
• Susana (4/5): Central location but disappointing and uncomfortable stay - The location of this apartment is excellent, very close to the train station and easy accessibility. It is also close to the city center, and it is easy to walk around. The living room is big. The decor from a distance seems interesting for photos. There are some supermarkets nearby for supplies. There is air conditioning, although during the stay it was very hot and the machines didn't cool a lot, but temperature was acceptable. There is a clothes washer, but no detergent is provided. Bring a pod or 2 if you think you may use it. We tried a restaurant suggested by the host and enjoyed it. The reviews that appear on top as "most relevant", between 1-3 nights, are positive. If you are looking for a place to crash for a few nights for up to 2 people, the price is discounted, and don't care much about comfort, you will probably be fine. After staying for 11 nights and reading all the reviews/replies it is clear there are many permanent issues, which added up to the worst experience I've had in many years of travel. Examples: Building has only stairs, which are steep. This is clearly stated in the ad, and not a problem for us. However, the staircase is really dirty, and with nauseating food smells most of the time (multiple reviews state this). Living room has a sofa bed, but it is very dirty (probably why you see it has a cover in the photos), and really, really, uncomfortable (multiple reviews state this). And yes, I have slept in sofa beds before. It is an older building, and only hardwood between floors. Upstairs neighbours are loud (multiple reviews state this), and active until after 2 am, and from 7 am. So sleeping though the night is impossible unless you are a very heavy sleeper. After several nights of complaining, it got a little better, presumably because the host asked the neighbours, although I was told they are not obligated to keep quiet after hours. A lot of particles also fell from the ceiling, probably wood cracks, onto the living room and on top of the sofa/bed. Kitchen is stated as fully equipped, but there is no microwave or oven.You can cook on a stove but have no way of re-heating. Ad does not list these items, so score is not impacted by this, but I find stating "fully equipped" is misleading. The table is quite high, and chairs normal size, so not comfortable for 4 people to eat. Again, for 2 people should be fine. While the decor seems nice and the place bright in the pictures, it is actually quite dark and lights very dim. Fake leather headboard is peeling, attaching to people's hair, and the sofa has many stains. Shower was broken. Cleaning of the apartment was not great. The host minimizes complaints, as can also be seen in his public replies to reviews.
• Jennifer (10/5): Exceptional - Cute apartment, very close to train station. The location was great. There were wonderful restaurants and it was a short walk to the Duomo.
• Josef (7/5): Good -
• Stephanie (8/5): Very good -
• Iuli2ooo (8/5): Very good - Apartment located very close to the area of ​​tourist interest (and the train station). The apartment preserves the Tuscan air very well, it is a place where you can fully feel the special charm of Firenze sunt cateva piese de mobilier care ar trebui upgradate...si firma de curatenie
• Krishnakumar (9/5): Super! -
• Elisabeth (10/5): Perfect stay in the heart of Florence - Everything really, Robert is really helpful too Nothing at all!
• Adrian (9/5): Superb - Clean room!Room is in the center of Firenze so you can visit center by walking! 24 euro tax parking car for 24 h
• Maithily (8/5): we enjoyed our stay - host was very friendly. check in was smooth. location was ideal and easily accessible. the air conditioning was not as strong so we had to leave the windows open
• Sofia (9/5): Superb -
• Chris (9/5): Beautiful and convenient apartment - Being just blocks from the train station, the apartment was perfectly placed for us and our bags. Robert was there to meet us on arrival to show us the place, then took the time to sit down and give us an excellent overview of the Florence sights. The apartment itself was well equipped, with the washer coming in very handy for us! Although it wasn't an issue for us, coming from the US, was reminded that a second floor room in Italy is on the third level of the building.
