This VRBO was in a perfect location. Walking distance from the train station and many shops and the best restaurants! It exceeded our expectations after having a very difficult time getting ahold of the host. We really enjoyed our stay.

The apartment was clean and had lots of room. Communication with owner was very smooth. The restaurants and bars downstairs can be loud at night, but nothing some ear plugs won’t remedy. Would stay here again; highly recommend.

Central Accommodation with good utilities

As a travelling family we found this apartment central and cosy with washing machine which was helpful for laundry. Be aware you can hear all noise from adjacent apartments especially at night if people come home late or walk around above you.

To find the key initially was a bit tricky. And we weren’t used to using for keys and four doors to

It was good, except that we felt we should have instructions on using the washing machine and the oven… Written in English for us since it’s an international language. An ordinary coffee maker would’ve been nice. Otherwise, we really enjoyed staying there and loved the location.

May 2024 three night stay

4 of us from Canada stayed for 3 nights in late May 2024. The apartment is in a nicely situated neighbourhood close to the river on the south side and is within easy 15 to 30 minute walking distance to many of the needed historical and must see sites within Florence. The apartment has great charm and is well appointed and spacious. The apartment entry is well secured with multiple doors so the first time can be a little tricky but once you get the hang of the locks, all works well. Communicating with the owner via WhatsApp was very easy and they were very responsive.

Not what shown

The apartment is located on a busy street with several loud bars. Never received email with pickup instructions but when we called owner did not answer at once. When he finally sent instructions keys were not there, and we had to wait to enter. The apartment is in a vault like area of a building, making you wonder about fire hazard. There is no view of Florence as shown in picture 19. All furniture is old and the main bed was missing the wood support on the legs and we ended up sleeping on a ramp. Bad experience overall

Great for a Few Days

The apartment was good overall. We had to communicate with the manager over WhatsApp and were left in the dark for check-in until about 12 hours before we arrived. The managers do not use Vrbo to communicate, you have to message them on WhatsApp before you can figure out how to begin the check-in process. Was honestly a bit frustrating, but once we figured it out, they were quick to reply, with videos and information for getting keys. Very sweet people, just no obvious way of knowing any information before messaging them on WhatsApp. To get into the Vrbo you will have to unlock many doors and go upstairs. During Spring break this place can be loud outside where bars and restaurants are open late into the night. A fabulous pizza and pasta place is located only a minute's walk away PLUS you can learn how to make pasta there, so HUGE bonus! A coffee shop is on the opposite side of the block, packed with people and great coffee overlooking the river. Very nice addition to the morning routine. The apartment has all the little things you would need for your stay including a washer and drying rack for your clothes. I personally loved the humbleness of the apartment, and how genuine of an experience it is to live in Florence by staying at this place.

Un endroit parfait pour visiter Florence

Très bien situé pour visiter Florence à pied. Quartier qui permet de trouver tout le nécessaire. Il faut noter que la maison est située au dessus de bar, terrasse et restaurant et le bruit des fêtards et la musique peuvent déranger ceux qui ont le sommeil léger. La maison est bien équipée et très propre. La communication avec le propriétaire est rapide et courtoise.

Enttäuschend

Enttäuschend!!! In einem Badezimmer tropfte das Wasser aus der Decke, im 2. Badezimmer löste sich die Farbe von der Decke. Die Matratzen waren nicht fest, sondern hart. Da hätte ich mich gleich auf den Boden legen können.Und dann noch das Theater mit den 4 Türen, für die man jedes mal einen anderen Schlüssel benötigte. Einer davon war so hakig, dass man manchmal 10 Min. benötigte, bis er endlich gegriffenhat. Leider gab es auch nur ein Schlüsselbund. Wenn einer weg gehen wollte, war der andere automatisch eingeschlossen.Diese Wohnung ist indiskutabel! Nie wieder!

appartement trés moyen

Pas de wifi, inquiétude du propriétaire la veille de notre départ pour venir avec un technicien le jour du départ !!!!! Le bruit, l'appartement se situe juste au dessus d'un bar extrémement bruyant jusqu'à 3 h du matin Dans une chambre beaucoup de mobilier, mais pas de clés donc pas de penderie Ne pas inviter les voisins car 4 couteaux,, 4 fourchettes, 4 assiettes etc Attention la taxe de séjour (seul intéret de l'agence pendant le séjour) a augmenté de 1 euro par jour et par personne!!! L'appartement est bien placé dans la ville C'est peut-être à Abritel de faire un suivi des appartement qu'il propose, mais à ce jour aucune nouvelle

Overall everything was satisfactory and a very pleasant experience. The one and only drawback was that we never had an in person orientation to the apartment. Every communication was through Whats app. All in all our visit was quite enjoyable and we would recommend this apartment.

Exploring florence

Good location. Apartment was very spacious and clean. The AC worked very poorly. The building entrance was not well maintain, main entrance kind of falling a part. Checking was very strange keys were attach to a near by bycicle rack. And you have to open 4 door before getting into the unit. Lady who was my contact try to charge me more for Florence fee that was allowed.

June rental near Santa Maria del Carmine in Florence

The apartment was spacious and clean, with a very usable kitchen. We appreciated the air conditioning that gave us a break from the June heat. I was having some trouble with my phone functioning when I arrived, so the check-in method, which relied on receiving a passcode and then retrieving the key from a lockbox and then following a video to find our way through the four locked doors, would have been a problem if my friend's phone hadn't been working well. However, communication worked well once we were there, and when we needed copies of the keys so the three of us could come and go the apartment independently, we were given them them almost immediately. We were the for a holiday weekend, so the location above restaurants was a bit noisy some nights, but with the shutters and windows closed, the sound was quite muffled and I was able to sleep with no problem, and the location near the restaurants as appreciated when we were looking for places to eat when all the city-center restaurants were full. Overall, we were very happy with the location and the apartment and wouldn't hesitate to stay there again.

Comfortable and great location

Comfortable apartment in a great location. Close to historic district and Ponte Vecchio. Vibrant neighborhood, lots of places to eat, on the ‘hop on hop off bus tour route and easy walk to other sights. Is situated above a popular bar that has music until late but the owner has put in double windows that lessens the noise. We did not have trouble sleeping but its worth mentioning. Really fun place.

APARTAMENTO CÉNTRICO Y CONFORTABLE

Consideramos que el apartamento está bien ubicado (cerca del casco histórico, de la estación del tren, del Piazzale Michelangelo, etc.) y además está bien equipado con todos los utensilios y enseres para hacer una vida normal. De noche, en el fin de semana, hemos sentido algo de ruido procedente de los bares de la calle, pero no ha supuesto para nosotros una gran molestia. Recomendamos el apartamento.

Stay at Oltrarno VRBO property

We had a very pleasant stay in Florence and our apartment in the Oltrarno neighborhood. The apartment was in a good neighborhood with lots of restaurants and bars. There was a good bakery and small grocery store only a couple of blocks away that we used multiple times. I was a little worried that there might be too much noise because there are two bars very nearby to the apartment, but the owner has really made an effort to resolve that problem by installing a "quadruple-paned" window in the front bedroom where my husband and I stayed. We had absolutely no problems sleeping. I am used to wearing earplugs nightly anyway, and Ilaria supplied us with earplugs, also. The only problem, if you could call it that, was checking in was delayed a bit. We did wait about 45 minutes for Ilaria to arrive, but I think it just may have been a language glitch. Not sure, and wasn't a big deal. She was very nice and showed us everything about the apartment. Overall, we had good time in our VRBO Florence apartment. I could recommend a stay there!

Second time staying in this lovely apt

This is the second time staying in this lovely apt. I particularly love this location as I used to live nearby. It’s clean, has all the amenities I need, has comfortable beds and is within walking distance from lots of sights. There is a bar and restaurant downstairs which was nice. Ilari, the property manager, was so nice and helpful. She even reserved a taxi to the airport me! I loved my stay.

Be-Aware: VERY Noisy (Aug 2018)

This apartment is nice, however it is very, very NOISY. We stayed over from Aug 26-31, 2018. The apartment is located on the second floor immediately on top of a bar with a terrace with loud music until 02hr00 and customers leaving at around 02hr30-45 in the morning each night that we stayed over. The customers are twenty & thirty-year-olds laughing, singing and some screaming. As mentioned in a previous review, “If you like to relax and sleep during your holiday then this is not the location for you”. This comment is so true. We requested a refund. The owner wrote back in the first week of September agreeing on a 200 Euro refund, but this never happened.
