Guest Reviews

• Lombardi (10/5): - La posizione dell appartamento è perfetta per girare Firenze in poco tempo oltre alla bellezza della stanza davvero molto curata Devo fare i complimenti allo staff è stato disponibile per qualsiasi cosa e a qualsiasi ora Lo consiglio !!!
• Carly (10/5): Exceptional stay - wish we had stayed longer! - The room had everything we needed and more! Even little details like the ear plugs and eye masks. The location was brilliant, the communication with the host was fantastic and they were very helpful when we needed to get in early and also leave our bags in a locker after we checked out as our flight wasn’t until later. This really did have everything and more! Nothing.

• Maurizio (10/5): Buon appartamento con SPA privata - Bell'Appartamento in Centro, di fronte al Teatro Verdi. Una piccola oasi Wellness con vasca idromassaggio, sauna, e bagno turco. Letto ampio e comodissimo. Home cinema. Cucina attrezzata con anche macchina per caffè espresso con cialde e bollitore. Buona la pulizia. Un po' rumorosa la strada sotto...ma essendo in città non potrebbe essere altrimenti.

• Naïl (10/5): - Tout était vraiment parfait, on a passé un super week end, l’appartement est juste parfait, l’hôte est très réactif en cas de questions, nous espérons revenir
• David (10/5): Un moment exceptionnel à Florence - Tout était parfait. L'appartement est spacieux et très confortable avec de très nombreux équipements offrant un cadre romantique et relaxant. L'appart est très bien situé (à quelques pas de la Basilique Santa Croce) dans un quartier avec de nombreux restaurants (un peu de bruits le soir mais l'appartement est plutôt bien isolé). Nous avons communiqué avec les hôtes via whattsapp et ils ont été à chaque fois réactifs, à notre écoute et surtout très bienveillants. C'était un vrai moment d’exception dans un lieu magique et romantique !
• Bolzan (9/5): - La vasca idromassaggio La doccia nella sauna è abbastanza scomoda, eccessiva domotica
• Sabrina (10/5): Soggiorno perfetto! - Soggiorno meraviglioso! L’appartamento è pulito, luminoso e arredato con gusto, a pochi passi dal centro. Tutto perfetto: letto comodissimo, cucina completa e grande attenzione ai dettagli. Il proprietario é stato sempre disponibile e molto gentile!

• Angelo (10/5): - Tutto ottimo camera fantastica e bellissima
• Yeuda (5/5): לא ממליצים - המיקום והקשר עם בעל הדירה הדירה במקום מרכזי כביש רועש כולל אמבולנסים עם צפירות ביום ובלילה קומה שניה בלי מעלית צריך לסחוב מזוודות הבעיה העיקרית סרחון בלתי נסבל בחדר המדרגות ובדירה מביוב או זבל לא מומלץ
• Kirsten (10/5): - Super close to all the sights, restaurants and bars. The room is exactly as described, probably even more spacious. The proprietor is very quick in answering any questions. And the instructions on all the high tech equipment were on the spot. Absolutely nothing!
• Geeta (10/5): -
• Sabribrina (10/5): Sabrina e Fabio Firenze tour - L'appartamento minimal è situato in zona centrale, permettendo di raggiungere facilmente i principali punti di interesse. È originale,pulito ,organizzato, gode di ottima privacy e una totale autonomia del cliente. Al suo interno la spa fa la differenza, una vasca idromassaggio spettacolare che può contenere anche due persone per la condivisione di momenti di relax,la sauna ,il proiettore che permette di visionare film su maxi schermo e infine l'angolo cucina,attrezzato e organizzato nei minimi particolari. Una nota particolare va al gestore,disponibile e tempestivo nel rispondere ad ogni richiesta/domanda. Consigliamo vivamente.

• BMLG (10/5): Ottima posizione e pulizia - Posizione ottima, appartamento pulito e con tutti i comfort. Sauna, bagno turco, idromassaggio, lavatrice con asciugatrice, cucina accessoriata. Tutto perfetto!
• Evaldas (10/5): Great Location, Stylish Apartment, and Private Sauna - We had a great stay in this freshly renovated apartment in Florence’s old town. It features modern apartment management solutions, but still has old town vibe. Apartment had a private sauna – perfect for relaxing after a day exploring the city. The location is superb, just a 10-minute walk to the main Florence attractions, with plenty of great restaurants and cafes nearby. Easy check-in, good instruction via WhatsApp and everything for us was smooth. We really enjoyed our stay and highly recommend it!
• Michael (10/5): Exceptional - Just a few doors off of Piazza Santa Croce, F1RST Suite is ideally located to explore Florence. Everything is within walking distance. And when your joints are tired from three times your normal step count, the sauna and hot tub are waiting to greet you. The apartment is cozy and inviting. The mood lighting was great for relaxing before turning in for the night. My wife is already talking about staying at F1RST Suite again on our next trip to Florence! I also add that the host's communication was great! The thermostat for the towel warmer was a little tricky and the host promptly replied with helpful instructions on how to get it working.
• Samir (6/5): Modern Updated Place that is a tight squeeze, with lots of amenities, lacking practicality. - Automated access made getting in easy. Modern and clean interior. Location is also good, but there is a downside to this. You are on a very busy street with car traffic, restaurants and bars below your window and even with windows closed there is a lot of noise well into 3-4am with garbage, delivery and street cleaning trucks coming in the very early morning. It was very hard to sleep and get any peace of mind. This is a place if you want to do short stay and are only 1-2 people and can sleep like a log and the outside noise doesn't bother you. The bed and pillows were some of the most comfortable I've slept in in any place and I've stayed in many places in my travels. Many of the other critical reviews accurately represent the issues and challenges of staying at this property. The is a really nice on the inside, clean modern, where no expense was spared in terms of putting in lots of amenities. Windows are motorized and double pane, but they should have gone with triple pane windows as there is excessive street noise at all times of the day/night. There is even artwork on the floor and walls. But it appears too much emphasis and expense in the build out was put into things like the art and the more practical things were not considered. Comfort, value and size of the room were problematic. Not good value for money and what is provided; the cost to stay here is double when compared to similar places in Firenze. Too much street noise. It is small and even smaller because the sauna, shower and hot tub take up considerable space. There is also no tabletop surface or places to keep things, the place gets cluttered quickly and is hard to keep clean. The property manager does provide a cleaning every 3-4 days, but for a place like this you have to spend time keeping things tidy especially if there are more than 1-2 people. Only suitable for 1-2 people, again space is an issue. The kitchen is very small with no counter space. So hard to cook anything. There is a small fridge, laundry machine, sink, but not too much in the way of pots/pans, and other things that would be needed in a kitchen, there is however, a very good espresso maker in the kitchen with ample supply of pods and teas and a hot water kettle. The bathroom or I should say bath space was another problem. The toilet is built into a closet space with a pocket door. The sink is a pedestal sink outside which looks nice, but it has no counter therefore you have to put all your toiletries on the ground next to the sink and stand up and crouch down every few minutes to do your morning/evening routine. I would not stay here again.
• Polydoros (10/5): Walk all day in Florence and then have your bed inside your very personal spa waiting for you - A James Bond type of gadget-full apartment for those who love experiences.
• Graeme (9/5): I would highly recommend this property; for us it was the foundation of a very enjoyable few days in this exceptional ci - A lot of time and thought has gone into this property. It is beautifully presented and exceptionally clean. The facilities are first class. We spent a few days visiting the sites and galleries in Florence and the location of the property is perfect. The host provides detailed instructions on accessing the property and facilities so everything went smoothly.
• Camden (8/5): Excellent spa facilities (but also feels like you are sleeping in a spa) - It is incredible that this room has a sauna/steam room and jacuzzi in it, as well as a kitchen. Location is a bit far from the train station but otherwise very close to everything in Florence. Fairly quiet street. The downside of the amazing spa facilities is that it also kind of feels like the bedroom is in a bathroom. The actual bathroom is unfortunately not very private from other guests with its sliding door. It would also be nice if the windows could manually open fully to air the room out, which can use it after the spa facilities have been used. The biggest negative is probably the early checkout—and the maid actually came thirty minutes earlier than the listed check out time.
• Marjan (10/5): Exceptional - Interior , details, quality and service
• Hunter (10/5): Exceptional - Great apartment. Everything was as expected. Check in was super easy. The location was perfect. Easy walking to everything. Nothing
• Simone (8/5): Near Santa Croce church - Great location, 100 m far from Santa Croce church, comfortable apartment with all you need to be happy in Florence
• Pawel (9/5): Amazing apartment right in the heart of Florence - Amazing apartment right in the heart of Florence. Really well equipped (bath, shower, mini-sauna, kitchen with basic utensils and a fridge, a projector with VOD). The shower inside the wooden sauna might not have been the best idea - it gives off an unpleasant smell, but it's not too bad with AC on. The "no soap/foam" rule in the bath is a bit disappointing, that's half the fun!
• Eva (10/5): Exceptional -
• Kristen (10/5): The best booking I’ve ever made in my life. So many options for nightlife, shops, restaurants and short walks to the riv - The amenities were incredible! There is a whirlpool bath, Turkish bath/sauna all mixed in with the shower. The projector from the ceiling for tv is so neat. Bluetooth and music can be played from the shower to a wonderful speaker above the shower for the whole room. The bed was super comfortable, the room was nice and cool in this 100+ degree weather, a full washer and dryer, microwave, plates and cups, clean drinking water, black-out shutters, etc. This was the coolest apartment/room we’ve ever stayed in, and the host was fantastic! Wonderful location right next to Santa Croce, and in the heart of the nightlife of Florence. We were on a movie set in the Santa Croce square, met very nice people From all over. The owners of the market a few doors down were so kind too. Be aware, no sale of alcohol in a store after 9pm! The host gave us incredible recommendations of best places to go for restaurants, gelato, coffee and more. Also incredible recommendations of places to see and landmarks to visit around this beautiful city. I will definitely stay there again upon our return to Florence. A short walk up about 20 stairs to get to the room, the security with the passcodes, strength of the door, safe in the room. It was all just fantastic. The room itself is all artwork from the floors, to the walls and ceiling and the kitchen. Refrigerator with water bottles provided, room service upon request and much more. I’ve truly never been so happy with a booking in my life, and I appreciate this wonderful host for sharing this apartment with us. Grazie! There really was nothing I didn’t like. This place was fantastic!
• Sharon (10/5): Perfect - The apartment was clean, a great size, the facilities were amazing. I have travelled extensively both leisure and professionally, this would be the best apartment I have ever stayed in. Nothing
• Huong (10/5): Exceptional - The location is excellent and room is spacious. It was a real treat to have a spa in the apartment and we enjoyed the high-tech facilities! Easy to check in and out. It is pricey for 2 nights but I guess it is because of high season. We had a great stay - thank you!
• Sonia (10/5): Exceptional Apartment, looking forward to returning soon. - The host/hostess was very helpful. Communication was great! The location was absolutely perfect! N/A
• Justina (10/5): The room was exceptionally comfortable, especially the bed, well appointed, and beautiful! - Really love the self-check in option! It makes traveling much more relaxing!
• Marisa (10/5): Exceptional -
• Layne (10/5): Exceptional -
• Ragnhildur (9/5): Superb -
• Dirk (8/5): Great location, unique place that is not for everyone. - Very easy access. Hosts were very helpful and even helped us get a taxi to the airport for our very early morning flight. The sauna and bath were very nice options to use, and the bed was large and very comfortable. This is a very unique place, and they have made use of just about every inch of the room for efficiencies. I'll preface this with some context. We are an older couple and wanted a quiet place centrally located. We know F1RST Suite would be a small place, but while the square footage says one thing, the tub and sauna take up a good part of that space. At the end of a two and a half week journey, we wanted more room to spread out our things to pack for the final trip home. There are no functioning areas to open your suitcase except the bed. This was problematic at times. The lobby is a bit run down, and you will have to carry your bags up a flight of stairs, which for an older couple again was difficult. While the location is wonderful, it is very noisy. Quieter with the windows and shutters closed, but still loud. On a weeknight, inebriated individuals were still going up and down the street in front yelling, laughing, singing, and sometimes arguing. The bathroom area could use more shelves. There is a very stylized narrow rack, but nowhere to put your own toiletries or even toothbrush and toothpaste. This place is ideal for a younger couple without a lot of luggage. Great for a weekend getaway, but not for a longer stay due to lack of space. We won't stay here again, only because of the above mentioned issues unique to our situation. Recommended with reservations.
• Richard (10/5): Very quick responses to anything didn’t matter how small or big. Very good communication - Fully automated. Great facilities in the unit Nothing
• Matthew (9/5): Superb -
• Jarrett (10/5): Exceptional - Our stay at F1RST was exceptional! The high-tech room with amazing features like a projector, whirlpool, sauna/Turkish Bath/ and shower led to an amazing experience for both my wife and I. We are pleased to have stayed at this conveniently located space and would definitely stay here again!
• Andréa (8/5): Very good! - Place, black out of the window, hot tube, TV projector and the technology of the apartment. The host (Valerio) was great!
• Benjamin (10/5): Had a lot of fun and would stay again - Modern place with lots of options, great location to get to anywhere in Florence. Really communicative staff. Helped me book a taxi to the airport at 4 in the morning!
• Nadeem (8/5): Reasonable but expensive - Facilities Jacuzzi and sauna were good but very small in size 1-Location Had to walk to a bus stop, to go anywhere , which was a 5 min walk. No taxi available 2- no luggage storage facilities on day of checkout
• Wesam (10/5): Perfect 🤩 - Every thing exceptional ❤️ Nothing
• Christine (10/5): Exceptional - Amazing amenities and a perfect location.
• Priscilla (10/5): Exceptional - The hosts were amazing - they were generally very responsive and have been super accommodating to all our (very last-minute) requests. The apartment was clean, modern and spacious - absolutely a rare find in Florence. Would definitely recommend staying there! There wasn’t a lift in the building.
• Anonymous (10/5): would recommend to others as well as staying here again - was absolutely beautiful and loved the sauna and bath tub. not enough towels. would be nice having a few more
• Richard (10/5): Amazing amenities and a great location - The location was unbeatable and modern touches were great and way above average Wish there was a bigger trash can other than the one small one by the sink / or an additional trash can
• Fred (10/5): Excellent - Okay so I was a bit skeptical. This is a new concept that is zero staff with a renovated apartment in a building that having never been to Florence looked reasonably located to hit all the major stuff, and looked comfortable and well equipped. Boy was I blown away....... I prefer this type of rental vs hotel when traveling. It was about the same price as nearby hotels (that offered a lot less BTW), have a better location, less hassle and never ever underestimate having a decent sized fridge back at you place at the end of a long day. The washer/dryer was a huge bonus that allowed me to pack alot less than I would have for a 12 day trip. The skeptical part was the use of WhatsApp for all communication. I like having the option of getting someone quickly if not face to face but on the phone. But it worked perfectly. For example, one night I triggered the sauna alarm by accident and could not figure out how to shut it off. I sent a message on whats app that was answered withing 3 minutes talking me through how to cut it off. The room was modern, had a safe, washer/dryer, mini kitchen, jaccuzi tub and a sauna. Yes it was small and that is a lot of amenities packed into a tight room but it all worked. Extensive use of automation for windows, heck even the shutters made navigating the room easy. The sauna which i don't use at home was a godsend after a day of walking. it was ont he first floor so only one story of steps to navigate. The touchpad made entry into the apartment and room super easy. Sadly (I would seek this place out when traveling if they expand) this is their first one but I will be looking. I would rate this place higher if I could Nothing
• Shira (10/5): perfect! - We arrived at an amazing studio apartment An innovative investment that lacks nothing The lovely host thought of all the details He was available and communication with him was pleasant and professional The apartment is close to everywhere is in a convenient and central area The room is very pampering and it was fun to start and end the day there or just to indulge in a jacuzzi in the middle of the day highly recommend nothing
• Joshua (10/5): the owner was super helpful and gave us lots of advice on what to do in Florence. The room is incredible and location is - the spa inside the room is amazing. location is perfect! really special stay! na
• Teng (10/5): Exceptional -
• Jasmynne (10/5): Exceptional -
• Matt (10/5): Fantastic apartment; very clean and close to all the main monuments with very helpful hosts. - Sauna; bath; big bed, coffee machine; clean, central location
• Annie (9/5): Superb - Very unique apartment, decorated to a high standard Very noisy at night as directly above bar and lively street. Not enough towels provided, water ends up leaking out of shower and around hot tub. Could also do with some hooks for towels and no where for them to dry.
• Ricky (9/5): Florence city break - This very chic little apartment was ideally situated to explore the fabulous city of Florence and also enjoy it's lively nightlife. The spa bath was incredible, especially after a long day of walking around Florence site seeing. We never tried the sauna but the rainfall shower situated in a very spacious glass box within the bedroom was lovely. Its is definitely a romantic destination with everything being in one open plan space. One word of warning make sure you hit the light switch and not the automatic shutters before you have got dressed. Whilst the location was ideal for getting around you are situated over a bar and this can be noisy.
