Guest Reviews
- Juan Manuel (10/5): - Facil acceso, bien equipado con todo lo necesario, cerca, muy buena ubicación, cerca del metro, limpio.
- Noelia (9/5): Buen alojamiento para un destino perfecto - La ubicación, tenía todo lo necesario y estaba muy limpio Nada, todo bien
- Fidanzi (10/5): - Assapporare la vita di Firenze
- Ruth (7/5): - Location Basics not great
Shower door was broken
Main Light in bedroom not working
Kitchen equipment was extremely basic
- Spera (4/5): Appartamento molto trascurato nonostante la zona centrale - Sicuramente la struttura vanta una buona posizione perché facilmente si raggiunge il centro in pochi minuti a piedi Non mi è piaciuto in generale tutto l’appartamento, l la doccia aveva un’anta in vetro e l’altra metà con la tenda, piena di muffa tra l’altro (anche le pareti della doccia) quindi non rispecchiava per niente le foto da loro pubblicate, in bagno non c’erano completamente ripiani di appoggio dunque abbiamo avuto difficoltà a posare le varie cose che solitamente si utilizzano. La caldaia, molto vecchia, faceva dei rumori veramente strani tant’è che la seconda sera ha smesso di funzionare e siamo rimasti senz’acqua calda (il proprietario avrebbe mandato qualcuno l’indomani ma noi avremmo fatto il check out quindi abbiamo dovuto affrontare comunque il disagio). La spine utilizzate in camera (ma anche altre) tenute dallo scotch, assolutamente fuori da ogni norma di sicurezza. La pulizia dunque in generale non era niente di che, la sera c’era molta confusione per strada e abbiamo avuto difficoltà a dormire, sarebbe il caso di valutare la sostituzione degli infissi. Peccato trascurare un appartamento in una zona del genere.
- Luigi (2/5): Unhygienic, no hot water, shower too dirty to use. - The location is pretty good We were really happy at the beginning: good price, good location, and the pictures showed a stylish and well-maintained accommodation.
Unfortunately, the reality was completely different.
The apartment is clearly neglected and in poor condition. There was a terrible smell upon entering, and the place looked nothing like the photos (for example, there is no Smeg vintage fridge as shown).
It was very dirty – we found a lot of hair on the floor, and the bathroom was the worst part.
The shower has no door, only a white curtain covered in black mold, as were the tiles inside the shower cabin.
The shower area was so dirty and moldy that it was impossible to use it.
A used toothbrush from a previous guest was left on the window ledge, the toilet was not cleaned, and the bidet was broken.
The power strip near the bed was plugged into an outlet held together with transparent tape, the same tape used to hold a button on the gas boiler — which we discovered in the morning was not working, so there was no hot water.
The issue appeared early in the morning when we tried to take a shower before leaving. We even asked for a late check-out to allow time to fix it, but it was denied. The host only offered an apology, and the problem was fixed at 10:30 a.m., just before the mandatory check-out at 11:00.
In addition, the property rules ask guests to stay quiet after 9 p.m., but you can hear every single noise from the street and the staircase, making it difficult to rest.
The place is also full of mosquitoes, which is why they provide chemical repellent products inside the apartment.
We stayed only one night, as we were just passing through Florence on our way to Rome, and for us a clean bed, a working shower, and basic comfort were essential.
Overall, this accommodation does not match the photos, description, or quality standards advertised on Booking.com.
It should be inspected to ensure minimum hygiene, safety, and comfort requirements are met.
- Pilar (3/5): No vale la pena - La ubicación y la atención El departamento estaba sucio, no habían limpiado bien de la visita anterior y hasta encontramos una uña postiza bajo la cama. Las paredes están llenas de mosquitos aplastados y los que no murieron ahí los van a picar por la noche. Las sábanas gastadas y viejas
- Ignacio (1/5): Non male ma gestito male - L’appartamento non è male. Comodo anche se le foto non sono come nella realtà. Dovrebbero essere aggiornate. La descrizione dice due letti. Il secondo letto non esiste. È un lettino per un bambino comprato a Ikea con dei cuscini sopra. Quindi è un appartamento per una coppia, non per andare in due. Per me questo è stato un problema perché la seconda persona è dovuta andare a cercare un’altro posto per dormire e il propietario non ha dato nessuna soluzione. Cambiate la descrizione dell’appartamento e le foto che non corrispondo con la realtà
- Martin (9/5): -
- Paolo Andrea Giovanni (5/5): A nicve apartment - It was good Nothing
- Angeles Maria (9/5): - Ubicación, a 5 minutos andando del Duomo Muchos emails para pedir información sobre vuelo de llegada, horas, etc. No lo veía necesario.
- Parsons (8/5): Very good - The apartment was in an amazing location and exactly what we needed for a short trip. So close to attractions, the centre of town and tons of restaurants and shops. Communication from the host was good and someone met us when we first arrived. Great for the price. For the price you don't expect it to be perfect but there were a couple of small broken/missing things, the light in the bedroom, the extractor fan in the kitchen etc. We had to buy our own bottle opener. Overall though this didn't really affect our experience.
- Sandra (10/5): Exceptional -
- Vera (8/5): Makes you feel like home. - Great vibe & location (you are in the city center, even if you don't feel like it), great hosts (always there to answer you). To sum up - this is the rental location that you actually *want* to be in, when in Italy and Florence.
- Lina (8/5): Very good -
- Elisabeth (9/5): Superb - Fantastic location.
- Bulgan (4/5): Disappointing - The door lockers are broken
- Darlene (8/5): Very good -
- Agata (8/5): Comfy, nice, close to all sightseeings but not in an overcrowded area, with a vibe ;) - Localization, the vibe of old Florentine tenement, clean, simple design, contact with the vendor.
Nice bakery on the corner, Piazza Santa Croce were you can sit and do nothing ;) Lack of some things i.e. spare bags for trash bins, washing liquid for the dishes, a few tablets to do the washing - it would just be very helpfull. Just a suggestion :)
There are no specific directions in the apartment how to find trash bins on the street to throw the garabe away. I had a small run arround the neighbourhood ;) Again, just a suggestion for the vendor.
There is no AC, only a small standing fan, for us it was ok but I can imagine that for somobody else it could be a problem.
Also swallows wake you up at 5 AM which is sweet but for some sleepyheads annoying ;)
- Artem (10/5): Exceptional - Nice location and great apartment. Everything was amazing! Cold floor, but it's quite common for apartments in late Autumn
