Guest Reviews

• Pavlos (9/5): -
• Kevin (10/5): - Le logement est magnifique, dans un quartier calme. Parking inclus. Belles prestations Le bruit du train qui passe mais on s'y habitue
• Guest (9/5): Excelente apartamento amplo e bem decorado - Excelente apartamento, amplo e muito bem decorado. Atendimento sempre prestativo pelo anfitrião. Facilidade para self check-in. Precisa de uma caminhada leve até o centro histórico, nada difícil.
• david (10/5): -
• Keyvan (8/5): - Almost all the night you can hear clearly the trains running just outside of the windows
• Bea (10/5): - Štýlové ubytovanie, skutočne výnimočné priestory, dve kúpeľne
• Goucem (9/5): -
• ELVIRA (10/5): -
• Alex (9/5): -
• colabuono (8/5): Very good. - Very spacious. Upstairs bed slightly uncomfortable, some mould on the wall in the single bed room, not the closet of locations.

• Christian (10/5): - La ubicación excelente. La anfitriona muy amable y servicial. Repetiría una y mil veces. Nos encantó!❤️
• Beatriz (9/5): - La amabilidad de Teona, piso amplio en 2 niveles, con plaza de parquing al lado del edificio. Está a 20 minutos andando del centro de Florencia. .
• haydar (6/5): Turistik açıdan keyifli konfor açısından konforsuz bir ev - Konumu dekorasyonu çok iyi ,sessiz sakin bir caddede . Ev temiz ve bakımlı ev sahibi gerekli olan banyo tuvalet ve mutfak eşyasını eksiksiz koymuş durumda Evde iki kişi kalacak ise alt kattaki klimayla idare edebilir ancak üst katlar da vantilatör var bu yüzden kesinlikle uyunmuyor. Tren istasyonunun yakınında o yüzden sabaha kadar saat başı tren geçiyor. Her ne kadar ev sahibi Kulak tıkacı bulundursa da sıcak ve gürültü asla uyutmuyor. Bir de yastıklar elyaf‘tan bu yüzden sıcaklığı birleşince yüzünüze yapışıyor ve sıcaklığı iki kat arttırıyor
• Mathieu (8/5): Très bien Florence est magnifique - Propre belle déco Emplacement au calme en dehors du centre mais facilement accessible Climatisation 😁
• Angelique (9/5): - Le logement est spacieux et bien agencé Le bruit du train juste en bas
• Jana-therese (8/5): Very good -
• Yuliia (10/5): Exceptional - My family and I love to stay at Florence. Location is awesome! I want to especially thank the host, she was super helpful with recommendations and always responded right away! Thank you!
• Mojca (9/5): Beautiful apartment with most what you would need provided and a big bonus of a free parking space. - The location is good, is not too far from the center and what was a big bonus point for us is that the parking was free and still safe. The apartment was really clean and most of the things you would need were provided by the host in the apartment. All the rooms were quite spacious. Nothing special - if you're a light sleeper, maybe you'll have problems because of the train, which is really close. You cannot sleep with open windows. But that the train rails are really close is disclosed beforehand, so for us, it wasn't such a problem. It's not ideal, but it's not a dealbreaker. Also, the upper apartment can get quite hot, but there are the AC and the ventilator, so we managed to cool it down. So in the end, for most things, the host provided solutions or alternatives.
• Natasa (10/5): Exceptional -
• Alena (9/5): The apartment itself is very nice and clean, however the location is not very good. - Clean and nice apartment, exactly as described and depicted on pictures. Very nice host The apartment is located not far away from the city center however the way itself is not nice, you would have to cross the railroad and walk through some rather poor and empty areas. The next bus stop is not very close.
• Zzz (7/5): Good location, friendly and helpful hoster, average facilities, 7/10 stay experience. - The hoster Teona always replied our questions promptly and tried her best to solve all the issues. There are various bus routes around the apartment, 5 mins walk away from the bus stops, very convenient to get to / back from all the attractions until midnight. The free parking spot is close to the apartment and very safe. It’s out of the ZTL, friendly to who drive to Florence. There is no A/C only a fan in the third single bedroom, so it’s extremely hot in summer even you turn on the fan. The foul sewage odor comes from the bathroom located in the main bedroom upstairs. You can smell it strongly even you are walking by bedroom. There is no door in the single bedroom upstairs, also only curtain door in the bedroom downstairs (actually it’s a living room originally, so no living space now).
• Gabrielle (9/5): Superb - The space was very comfortable and easy enough to get to. A 30 minute walk to the city center. Teona was an EXCELLENT agent, super communicative and efficient. She was extremely helpful highlighting and recommending places to eat and visit during our stay. We did have an issue with the AC downstairs, but she took care of it immediately. She was also helpful with trying to get a taxi on the last day as the weather was terrible and it was a holiday and transportation was iffy. Though she wasn't successful through no fault of her own, the help was immensely appreciated. Above and beyond, I highly recommend the space. The only stand out concern was the proximity to the train tracks and the frequency of trains. It wasn't a huge issue for us as we were out for most of the time and during the night, trains slowed or stopped. But for someone sensitive to noise, it could be an issue. Secondly the laundry rack is a bit complicated to assemble if you do laundry. It seemed to be broken and wasn't working properly. Probably needs a new one.
• Berend (10/5): Comfortable! - Very comfortable place and Teona & Marco were amazing hosts!
• Yu (10/5): Great - Amazing Lovely
• Andreea (9/5): Great apartment for a small group of people - The apartment is very spacious, modern and fresh. Quite clean and bright. Loved the high ceilings. Having a washing machine was awesome for us since it was extremely warm during our stay and we needed to wash many of our clothes. Teona, the property manager was very responsive on WhatsApp and even was kind enough to allow us to drop the bags there earlier than our check-in so we can discover the city on foot. Shared plenty of information of places to go to and visit, with links and lots of details. The pillows. I know it sounds silly but they were really hard and high and we couldn't sleep at all on them, without having severe neck and shoulder pain. We improvised eventually, because there weren't any comfortable ones available and we could sleep better. It would also have been great to have some anti-mosquito solution available, we had no idea what to buy and from where. So if you have a sensitivity or allergy to mosquito bites, bring an anti mosquito solution with you.
• Dorota (8/5): Very good -
• Yh (2/5): The worst accommodation on my three-week trip to Italy - It was an old apartment, but the interior was modern. I couldn't sleep because it was very noisy because it was right next to the railroad. It is a double-decker and the ceiling on the upper floor is made of glass windows, so air conditioning is not desirable. And the washing machine doesn't work properly. We informed in advance that we would arrive between 3 p.m. and 4 p.m., but the actual arrival time was 3 p.m. So I had to wait 40 minutes on the road for the caretaker to come.
• Morwesi (7/5): Lovely! - The host and the cleanliness
• Santiago (10/5): Exceptional -
• Cam (10/5): valued for money, comfortable stay - very nice host. great location. close to super market, bus & train station. clean and have essentials you need close to railway but not much bothered
• Nikolozi991 (10/5): Comfy, hospitable, clean. - The communication with host was perfect. We were late she waited for us and was very pleasant and understanding. She gave us a lot of advice on where to visit, how to commute, where to shop and etc. The train sound was a bit uncomfortable but it was okay to sleep, the host also provided ear plugs.
• Georg (8/5): Very good - There is a private parking place.Quiet neighbourhood.Two bathrooms , comfortable beds. Τhey could come for cleaning once .... (reservation for 7 nights). Νoisy train behind home .
• Jeremy (8/5): Huge well equipped apartment - Huge apartment that’s not too far from the city centre. Very well equipped and has a washing machine etc. Host was very helpful and check in was a breeze. Off street parking is about 50m from the apartment As expected from other reviews there are two train lines very close by. Trains did run periodically during the night. We slept fine and the host provided earplugs just in case.
• Lydia (9/5): Overall a great place to rent - Teoni was an excellent host. She stayed in contact with us, waited for us, gave us local info about the bus, restaurants and tours. Very attentive and kind I was disappointed that there was not shampoo in the showers although we travel with toiletries I don't like to have to bring everything with us and most booking apartments have soap, shampoo and conditioner. There could be a bit more toilet paper and towels. (although Teoni did deliver more toilet paper when requested as we are a family of 4) no paper towels or kleenex The upstairs bed is very uncomfortable but the downstairs one was good.
• Christophe (9/5): Excellent place to stay close to the city with a parking space - The appartement is really comfortable, nicely decorated, clean and well located (walking distance to the city center). The owner is really friendly and gave us excellent advice and adresses for bakery, lunch and dinner. The parking space is highly appreciated and next to the accommodation!
• Egidio (10/5): Exceptional - the apartment is very beautiful, well decorated, very arty and cool. It is really comfy. It is perfect. The location is good too, it is a 25 minutes walk distance to the center of Firenze. The host very welcoming too. I should come back.
• Britt (10/5): cozy apartment near city center - lots of space. very clean. it had all the comforts. The staff was very attentive and helpful. nothing.
• Sammy (5/5): Passable -
• Daniel (7/5): Good -
• Anujan (9/5): Exceeded expectations - The aesthetic was very nice. Everything was up to standard. Nothing
