- Albert (8/5): Buena opción - Apartamento muy bien situado, con todo lo necesario para cocinar. Espacioso y silencioso. Tuvimos un problema con la.calefaccion y nos lo solucionaron rapido. El colchón del sofá cama y laa hormigas.
- krieger (10/5): Muy buena opcion - Lugar centrico lo que permite hacer todo caminando, a pocos metros de la estacion de tren, cocina equipada y moderno . Las camas podrian mejorar
- Olena (10/5): - Квартира находится рядом с жд вокзалом и не далеко от основных достопримечательностей. Очень просторная , хорошие кровати, есть все необходимое для приготовления еды. Красивый двор и тихо
- Iskra (10/5): Apartment with a view of a beautiful hidden garden in the center of Florence - The apartment is beautiful, modernly decorated, has an elevator and a terrace. The most beautiful thing is on the terrace, which overlooks a garden, which looks like a jewel in the center of Florence. In the morning you wake up to the singing of birds. The location is a 5-minute walk from the Medici Chapel and 5 minutes from the train station. I am very satisfied and hope to be a guest again. nothing

- YICHENG (10/5): -
- Laura (10/5): - Posizione strategica a meno di dieci minuti dal Duomo e Battistero Comodini Lampadari e Porte piene di polvere
Materasso pieno di capelli
Insomma pulizia non era il massimo per me ma per due notti si può soprassedere
- Enrico (8/5): Perfetta x un week end - La sua posizione, 5 min dalla stazione e a 5 min dal Duomo
- Nicolas (8/5): - L'emplacement et le calme Rien à signaler...
- Lena (8/5): Convenient - Location location location close to attractions Body wash and shampoo bigger bottles
- Paloma (1/5): Ibsalubre - humedades - Lleno de humedades, insalubre total, mantenimiento nefasto.
- Andri (9/5): -
- Roberta (10/5): - Apartamento confortável, fomos muito bem recebidos no check-in, a comunicação com o anfitrião é excelente! A localização é perfeita, alguns metros da estação de trem e perto de todos os pontos de interesse da cidade!

- Mārtiņš (8/5): Nice option for visiting florance - Private area tucked away from the city noise. The appartment had everything we needed and the underground parking (costs extra) was nice to have since we traveled by car. All the main attractions are within walking distance. The washing machine is outside appartment and costs extra, plus in our case there were some birds in the early morning that might be a problem for people with light sleep.
- Ermanno (10/5): -
- Giancarlo Cocco (6/5): - la posizione è centrale come desiderato , la disponibilità del posto auto fondamentale , spazi ambienti ottimi e dotazione cucina buona ( anche se per noi non era fondamentale) , la location è bella con il bel giardino interno e la disponibilità del posto auto interrato , l'accoglienza è stata ottima e il personale gentile e simpatico ed efficiente. Cuscini veramente scomodi e vecchi , materassi letto scomodi ( era passabile il materasso del divano letto) , insonorizzazione pessima , purtroppo associata alla maleducazione deli turisti che alloggiano nel resto della struttura che alle 3.00 e alle 4.30 del mattino urla e ride nella corte interna ( rimbomba tutto l'eco degli schiamazzi) e nel pianerottolo delle scale ( portone entrata senza battuta inferiore e perciò rumore che passa come se fosse apertala porta!) , non puoi dire nulla se no rischi pure che ci scappi la rissa!! distribuzione errata degli alloggi , infatti a causa della corrispondenza della posizione del bagno dell'appartamento vicino con soggiorno con divano letto ( per non parlare del soggiono altrui con la nostra camera da letto!) perciò gente che si fa la doccia alle 5.00 del mattino per un'ora e di conseguenza non si dorme più, è come avere le cascate del Niagara sulla testa!! non si può riposare dopo pranzo in quanto il personale effettua le pulizie e le manutenzioni fino alle 15.00 e poi dopo avvengono i check-in con gente che sbatte valigie , sbatte portoni , insomma un casino! condizionatori vecchi e vetusti, sulle pareti ci sono i segni di vecchie infiltrazioni e fuori uscite di acqua , pareti deteriorate , segni di vetusta' diffusi , infissi malfunzionanti e che si chiudono male . il rapporto prezzo qualità non è adeguato.
- Aleksandr (10/5): - Удобное месторасположение, уютный дворик и балкон, все чисто и исправно, отзывчивая и доброжелательная принимающая сторона, помогли с ранним заселением и поздним выездом! Очень медленный интернет((
- Corinna (7/5): War klasse, insbesondere durch die Lage! - Außergewöhnlich tolle Lage! Problemloses Check-In, super Unterstützung durch Selena und Alex Bisschen in die Jahre gekommene Ausstattung, nicht schlimm, aber vielleicht mal überdenken 😉, ob ein neues Schlafsofa und ein paar mehr Gläser angeschafft werden könnten. Die Fensterläden waren verzogen (dadurch sehr hell); Fliegen-/Mückengitter wollen wären wünschenswert, weil es jetzt im September ganz schön viele Mücken gibt und der Innenhof davon wimmelt 😀… Super für die, die ihr Auto mitbringen: die Tiefgarage!!!
- Juan Manuel (5/5): Solo la ubicación - La cama y las almohadas eran espantosas. Humedad en todos los AC, uno de ellos goteaba agua arriba de la puerta de entrada
- lidwine (8/5): - le logeur m'a indiqué comment acceder a l'appartement sans passer par la zone zlt dans l'annonce il aurait fallu preciser que le parking etait facturable en plus
- Maryna (10/5): Beautiful apartment in city center - Right in the city center with garage parking, clean, modern and spacious apartment, view from the balcony was amazing All was great
- Beata (9/5): - Lokalizacja genialna gdy przyjeżdża się na trzy noce :) Parking podziemny idealny:). Ważne że poza strefą ZTL - trzeba tylko uważać z której strony się wyjeżdża. Apartament duży i wygodny. Z kuchni nie korzystaliśmy więc się nie wypowiem, klasyczny ekspres do kawy jest. Selena jest bardzo uprzejma i wyjątkowo pomocna! W okolicy mnóstwo miejsc w których można zjeść śniadanie i wypić kawę. Miejsce naprawdę fajne.
- Lucrezia (8/5): Buono! - Posizione ottima , appartamento accogliente, cucina attrezzata, personale che ci ha accolti super Pulizia non ottimale specialmente dei pavimenti. Appena arrivati ci siamo tolti le scarpe e abbiamo camminato scalzi, risultato piedi neri.letto matrimoniale è formato da due materassi che si aprono con molta facilità
- Araceli (10/5): Apartamento grande limpio y cómodo - Apto cómodo y amplio con ascensor y aire acondicionado. Microondas Vitrocerámica rápida, nevera grande. Lavandería (lavadora y secadora en el -1) de monedas
Muy cerca de la estación de tren. Personal muy amable, muy atentos por WhatsApp.
Bastantes Toallas gorditas y en el wc gel de cortesía. El secador grande y potente.
Buenos armarios con perchas Había unas pequeñas hormigas. Hay lavavajillas pero no hay suficientes cubiertos para poner el lavavajillas, no había algunas pastillas de lavavajillas. No había bayeta. No había tostador.
- Juan Carlos (10/5): -
- Naranjo Rodríguez (8/5): Muy Agradable - La ubicación es perfecta para visitar el centro histórico de Florencia. El apartamento esta dentro de una urbanización con jardines. Insectos (hormigas y mosquitos) debido a la vegetación existente en el entorno.
- János (9/5): Minden kiváló - Elhelyezkedés, kiváló parkolás!
- Harutyunyan (8/5): -
- Anand (8/5): Very good -
- Katherine (9/5): Superb -
- Margaret (9/5): Nice apartment in a great location. - The location was perfect for us, we arrived by train and it’s an easy 5 minute walk once you are out of the station. The apartment is modern and the setting is tranquil, set - back in amongst lovely gardens. Our host was friendly and very accommodating of our request for an earlier check-in, and he was thorough with explaining all the features of the apartment. In our 4 day stay we never used any form of transport as we were able to walk everywhere we wanted to go. The one and only thing that was a negative for our stay was the lack of a door to the bedroom. Photos of the property must be out of date as it’s been removed at some stage.
- Lorenzo (8/5): Peaceful but central location! - Good location and nice apartment located in a private and quiet courtyard. Within a walking distance from the train station and the Duomo. Full of restaurants and bars around it. Ginevra, the girl who checked us in was lovely and check in was easy just like the check out. The apartment needs just a little bit of maintenance, like the toilet seat was unscrewed and the one light in the toilet just couldn't be turned off for some reason.
- Stefan (9/5): Superb - Perfect location with car park.
The apartment was spacious and quiet.
It was 10min walking distance to the cathedral and old town.
The backgarden where many of the apartments are located is a lovely refreshing place of silence .
The extended sofa was ok, not super wide but it worked for the children.
- Sharon (8/5): Excellent location - AC didn't work very well so bedroom was very warm at night . In general the apartment needs refreshing. Excellent location and felt very safe apartment.
- Yuh (8/5): Very good - Great location and staff were very helpful. The place could have been cleaner and more spare items such as toilet paper and dishwasher tablets which we had to ask for. Quiet place. Thanks
- Sinisa (5/5): Florence sleeping beauty waiting to be awake - Very good position, near everything. Very calm apartment in suprisingly quiet building, with nice large garden. Nice and clean linen and towels. Garage availability. Overall experience was fair, but I'd like to suggest a thorough and simple cleaning and renovation/refurbishing of the place with updating of equipment, and hopefully, outstanding quality will shine again.
I expected a bit more of the place, but sadly, it didn't fulfill my expectations.
I could point out a few things as an urgent priority to be resolved.
- Alfredo (7/5): Good location, Bad mininum services - Well Located, well distribute of the space. The were walls with humidity, no toilet paper, no cleanning sopa. In general there was not the mínimum cleanning support.
- Kevin (6/5): Average accommodation - Location Mould in bedroom, power keeps tripping
- Sethi (8/5): Very good - Location and a very smooth check in
- William (9/5): Nice place in the nice location, short walking disrance to the central. Lots of restaurants and cafes around the neighbo -
- Dali (10/5): Exceptional -
- Ashley (8/5): Safe and spacious apartment with great location - Plenty of room, good location Our flights in were delayed and we were told a late check in could not be authorized. This was out of our control and caused a lot of stress not knowing if we were going to have a place to stay. Fortunately, we were able to keep in contact and we’re only about 30 min after 7 and someone was able to meet us
- Josh (10/5): Amazing, the apartment had everything we needed and more. The courtyard/garden was beautiful. 10/10 recommend fo -
- Lisa (10/5): Fantastic central apartment, great location. - Absolutely loved this apartment. The location is fantastic. Very close to the Train station, tram to airport and Piazza del Duomo. The balcony was a welcome relief with hot days. Nice big shower and roomy apartment. Nothing we loved it and felt very safe.
- Candice (10/5): Great location! - It was in such a great central location. We were able to walk everywhere we wanted to go in the city. Once you walk into the complex, a peaceful garden setting was there for us to enjoy as we walked to and from the apartment. It was so unexpected. Having to pay extra for parking when you have already paid to stay in a rental is always annoying, especially when it is an underground garage that is part of the apartment complex like this one is. But it was nice that parking was an option.
- Hector (9/5): Superb -
- Urioste (1/5): Dirty! - Nothing! Stinky and moldy shower. We didn’t stay.
- Karolina (7/5): Good -
- Romina-ionela (8/5): Very good -
- Loree (10/5): Exceptional - Very friendly staff . Nice clean spacious place. Nice location
- Anonymous (9/5): Superb -
- Pavel (7/5): Noisy place not far from the center. - Close to tourist attractions. Large rooms, large bathroom. Availability of paid parking. The main disadvantage is the noise until 23:00. If you want to sleep before 23:00, you will not be able to. Even talking in the apartment is uncomfortable, it is so noisy. The windows of the apartment overlook the courtyard, where the terrace of one of the cafes also overlooks. There is very loud music and noise of cafe visitors. After 23:00 everything is quiet. Also the floors in the apartment are dirty and there is mold in the bathroom.
- Deyin (10/5): Exceptional -
- Sharon (9/5): Recommended - Perfect location to explore the city by foot.
Modern and clean apartment.
Spacious garage under the apartment.
Helpful host. Black mold on the edges in the shower (not too bad).
Kitchen could have been better equipped.
- Opher (7/5): It was good. Could’ve been better. - We enjoyed the beautiful courtyard view from our balcony. Nice sized apartment. Daniela was kind and super helpful. We had issues with the broken bed and air conditioner in ~100F weather, and she sent a man to fix it. We were happy they took care of these necessities very quickly. We were not unhappy. Everything was fine. Good place, good location. We enjoyed Florence to the fullest. More or less, the same things that almost everyone else has reported as unacceptable, remains unchanged. Previous customers reported things like: the bed was pretty uncomfortable, the apartment needing a paint job, the moldy tub needing a cleanup and a good caulking; they could provide inexpensive basics like dishwasher soap, a roll of paper towel for the sink, and a box of tissues. They could pay attention to these small things, and really make a nice stay even better. If we knew those things were corrected, we would stay there again.
- Mandeep (8/5): Very good -
- Rugeradh (9/5): Superb - -The room is nice, neat and clean. The garden is so lovely. It gave us a vibe of home in Florence. We will definitely stay here again if we come back to Florence.
-The staff (Daniella) is great! The distance from the train station to the apartment is longer than 300 meters. The information provided on the page is not accurate.
- Mario (9/5): Beautiful apartment in the Centro, good value - The location was great. Close to Mercato Centrale, Duomo, train station.
It was clean and spacious and bright. The air conditioning wasn’t working yet (out of their control, a condo building rule). But it did make the nights warm, and opening windows resulted in flies getting in.
It would have been nice for the kitchen to have basics like dish soap, salt, pepper, olive oil.
- Rio (9/5): Superb - Very close to train station, 10 mins walk. The room was clean and tidy with enough kitchen utensils for the whole family.
Our host was very helpful and we had a wonderful stay during our time in Florence.
- Janne (4/5): Disappointing - Location is very good. There is an elevator what makes things easier if you are travelling with toddler. Very nice garden. The place really needs some refreshment. Bathroom is the worst - there is mold. Beds are not very comfortable, don't expect much from the kitchen. Instructions are confusing - host asked many times when we arrive, but didn't say how to get there (Florence has two types of house numbers) ant didn't notice that there is a problem with check-in time. When we arrived they still cleaned. If it's rainy, it is really cold there and
you are not allowed to touch the heating system. I'm not reccomending staying there if you are travelling with child.
- Leyman (10/5): Exceptional -
- Ruth (10/5): Great Apartment in an Awesome Location. Walking Distance to All the Sights. - This is a great, relatively new, one-bedroom apartment with an additional sofa bed in the living room/kitchen area. Alex, who let us in, explained the property, showed us around, was super helpful. It is located in a great area, just a couple of blocks away from Sta. Maria Novella train station, and tons of restaurants, shops, and markets. You can basically walk everywhere. Wifi was good. We had access to a free washing machine -- supposedly also a dryer, but it was broken-- which we were so grateful for, after being away for a week. I was in Florence for a conference at Firenze Fiera (just 2 blocks away) and it could not have been more convenient. Would not hesitate to stay here again! As with all apartments, you have to take out your own trash, get a few of your own supplies, clean up after yourself... Other than that, it was perfect. :-D
- Zoran (10/5): Exceptional - Excellent location + garage + laundry room
Easy access to all of the attractions
New building in a very quiet neighborhood with a beautifully landscaped courtyard
I highly recommend staying there!
- Jonguk (10/5): Exceptional -
- Benjamin (10/5): Exceptional -
- Paul (10/5): Exceptional - Everything was perfect. The apartment has a great view. -
- Melissa (10/5): Exceptional -
- Razvan (9/5): a very good value/money location. it was very easy to find using the host’s directions. - proximity to city center
good facilities at a fair price
- Vicki (9/5): Superb - It was very safe and secure The washing machine and dryer not in unit but down stairs and the dryer you had to put in coins.
- Barbara (10/5): Exceptional -
- Robert (10/5): Fantastic in Florence - Location was great very secure room was well organized and comfortable. The hosts get a 10 and the property was unbelievable I thought for a long time and just can’t come up with anything
- Sebastien (9/5): Superb -
