Good sized lounge area but sofa was uncomfortable and should be replaced soonReally appreciated the personal check in process with Lorenzo.

Great location! We could walk from the train station to the apartment and from the apartment to all of the sites. The apartment was clean with plenty of room for our group of 6. Two disadvantages, there is an elevator, but steps to reach the elevator and additional steps to reach the apartment and the air conditioning cannot be on when using the washer and dryer.

Dear Guest, Thank you very much for your kind review. We are delighted to hear that you enjoyed the apartment's central location and that it was spacious and comfortable for your group. We're glad you were able to explore Florence so easily on foot. Thank you also for your helpful feedback. We appreciate your suggestion regarding the stairs and will make this information even more visible in the Home Truths section of the listing, so that future guests can easily take it into consideration before booking. Regarding the air conditioning, the apartment is equipped with a standard domestic electrical system, so we recommend avoiding the simultaneous use of the air conditioning and other high-power appliances, such as the washer and dryer, to prevent the electrical system from overloading. Thank you again for taking the time to share your experience. We hope to welcome you back to Florence in the future. Warm regards, Apartments Florence team

Friends in Florence

The apartment was great- perfect for four ladies traveling together. The only problem was the odor as you entered the building. It smelled like sewage and the odor got stronger each day. By the last day of the visit the smell started to enter the apartment

Solid apartment in great location

Great apartment in an excellent location. Good communication with the owners before and during arrival. It seems a bit complicated, but they give you detailed instructions - just pay attention and folllow them and you'll be fine. Comfortable beds, great AC, and recently remodeled. The only negative was that you have to be careful how you use the shower in the master as it can leak onto the bathroom floor if you don't have the spray situated just right. We luckily noticed it quickly as one of us was shaving as another showered, so it wasn't a big deal, but it really is something that needs to be fixed for future guests. (It will leak profusely if the water is against the side wall or against the the door that slides. The installation needs to be redone / reviewed). The washer and dryer worked well and were much appreciated after several days of traveling. Would 100% stay here again. Just be careful with the shower ;)

Great location with room to spread out

We enjoyed our stay at this apartment and found it to be a great base for exploring Florence. The location is fantastic—within walking distance of all the major attractions, restaurants, and shops. The host was exceptionally friendly, responsive, and helpful, which made our experience even better.The apartment itself was clean and well-equipped, with everything we needed for a comfortable stay. One feature we especially appreciated was the layout of the bedrooms, which are nicely spaced out. This allowed our family, including two teenagers, to each have our own area to retreat and relax—a huge bonus when traveling as a group.That said, we did find the apartment a bit lacking in natural light, which made the space feel less cozy than we had hoped. The daylight bulbs in the lamps provided adequate brightness but didn’t create a particularly relaxing atmosphere for unwinding after a day of sightseeing. However, this could easily be solved with a switch to warmer, softer lightbulbs to enhance the ambiance.Overall, we’d recommend this apartment for its unbeatable location, thoughtful layout, and warm hospitality, but it may not be ideal for those who value a lot of natural light or a more calming atmosphere in the evenings.

Appartement assez spacieux pour 5 adultes, mais cuisine/salle à manger un peu à l'étroit comparativement aux photos. Lits confortables et propres, mais la propreté de l'appartement (murs, sofas) est moyen. Il faut absolument téléphoner la personne contact pour annoncer notre arrivée, ce qui peut causer problème si on n'a pas de forfait téléphone dans le pays hôte. Appartement très bien situé, près de la gare et près du centre historique. Nous avons apprécié notre séjour.
