Florence with family!

Our family really enjoyed this apartment! There are 3 levels, with the loft and bedrooms at the top which we didn’t fully realize when booking, but it made for a lot of extra space. The extra large living area downstairs, high ceilings and 3 bathrooms were great. With a lot of original character, the apartment still felt new and clean. We would definitely stay again.

Great Apartment in Fantastic Location in the heart of Florence

A great apartment in the heart of Florence. A quick walk to all the local attractions with great restaurants just outside your door. Check-in was easy and the apartment was well setup with all of the necessities you would need. Lots of room on 3 floors for our family four to stretch out. Would definitely recommend.

Great location beautiful rental

We were a group of 7, all adults this location was great. 10 to 15 walk to almost everything. The rental was great, and beautiful. This may have been my fault but we had an elderly person with us and it was a little hard for her to use the stairs, but we made it work. Both bedrooms are up on top of 3 floors. Middle flóor was the loft which had a sofa bed. Overall I thought the vrbo was great. Thank you

A cool experience

This is the first place that we stayed in Italy. My expectations may not be in touch with reality. With that being said, the apartment itself is magical in its own way, uncertainly authentic to Florence. The antiquity surrounds you giving you that European experience that many travelers are seeking. In my case I’m traveling with my family who are not quite as adventurous as Only drawbacks might be with the size of bathrooms, lighting issues, or overall cleanliness. In all fairness, I will say that the place is extremely clean and well kept, and that this is Italy and that anyone should lower their expectations when comparing it to something Modern In this case this numerous stairs could be a concern for some families. I thought all of these features are part of the experience and makes it cool and unique to Florence but my wife feels otherwise. Apartment was overall accommodating and perfect for our family and while I have no actual hotels that I can compare it to, I thought this apartment was unique and historic and special.

Great location

Great location and easy access to most of Florence. The apartment was lovely, plenty of space for us all and AC units in each bedroom. The only issue we had was accessing the apartment, we didn’t receive check in access and had to call to receive it. But otherwise all was wonderful and perfect for us.

Amazing location and lots of steps!

The apartment is exactly as pictured - great space for a family or large group. We used the kitchen every morning for breakfast and sat around the table every evening sharing stories and playing games. The location is amazing - you can walk to anything from the apartment within 15 minutes (the train station, every major attraction and great shopping). Be aware, that if you have anyone who is not super mobile, there IS an elevator to the apartment, but within the apartment itself all of the bedrooms require very steep stairs. We would stay there again - super quiet, very clean and fantastic location.

Great location. Front door entry wasn't great. I couldn't get it to work on my phone, but it worked for my wife. The stairs are rough, so not a good choice for the elderly. We managed but it wasn't fun with luggage. Location was perfect. Close to everything but not a real busy street. Overall a nice place.

Not for older people!

The apartment was spare but fine - nothing fancy but comfortable. However, what isn't mentioned is that there are very very steep and narrow stairs throughout that are dangerous for little kids or older people. And while there is an elevator, it stops 8 steep steps before the apartment door.

Iconic Florence Stay

This was my friends and I first time in Florence, we wanted a place close to the action so we could walk places. This was the perfect location for us, right near the river, near shops and restaurants, and a close walk to all of the sites. Also, big bonus in the Italian summer it had AC. We loved the aesthetic of the home, it was classic and beautiful. Plenty of space for our group which had 5 of us and a baby. There are quite a bit of stairs, so make sure you are comfortable with that. If it’s not an issue, than this is the perfect spot. The hosts were very easy to communicate with, and the check in process was easy as well. We definitely would stay here again if we were in Florence! Thank you!!!

Heart of Florence!

This apartment was well-suited for our family as it had separate beds for our boys and three separate bathrooms. Note there are two actual bedrooms - the third room is on a mezzanine overlooking the living room with a pull out couch. As noted on other reviews there a lot of stairs - to get to the apartment and again to get to the bedrooms. This place is not good for someone with bad knees. Location couldn’t be beat - right in the heart of the old town with restaurants and cafes around every corner. It is not luxurious- but it had everything we needed for an amazing stay.

Great location, lots of stairs

This rustic Italian apartment is located in a fantastic area in the heart of Florence. The host was helpful by phone when we arrived early in allowing us to store our luggage at the apartment while it was being cleaned. He also allowed us to leave the luggage a couple hours later at the end of our stay since we had a later flight. Please know that there are many stairs in the apartment. You have to climb two flights of narrow winding stairs inside the apartment to get to the two bedrooms. There is a loft on the middle “floor”. I would not recommend it for families with young children or elderly people. Overall we enjoyed our stay, but we wanted to make sure that people understood the property. We loved the location. Very close to everything.

Great location

This location couldn't have been any better. It is close to everything. We had a good stay and lots of great memories. Finding the location wasn't easy apple maps had us a block away, the instructions via email didn't help much and communication with the host was hit and miss. It says it sleep 7 and that is really pushing it. The listing say 3 rooms in one spot and 4 rooms in another spot. It’s 2 rooms an a loft and there is a cot for a 7th person you can pull into a room or the loft. The apartment is much darker than the pictures lead you to believe. We had lots of stairs everywhere we stayed in Italy but this place had by far the most. If you don't have someone with some muscle this isn't the place for you if you have suitcases.

Wonderful Apartment with the Best Location

Our stay in Frienza was made wonderful by this awesome property. It is beautiful in every way. It is in a building built in the 1600s with incredible architecture and views. It is close to the river, the il Duomo, restaurants and shopping. Incredible place. The apartment is managed well and Gaia and Pietro were very responsive to any of our needs. For example, when we checked in, 2 of the canned lights in the ceiling were burnt out, not a big deal, but still made the dining room a bit dark. Gaia had the repair man there the next morning to replace the lights (that was great, Thank you!). We loved the apartment, the feel, and the closeness to the city of Florence. Being in a historic building, that is completely upgraded only added to our experience. Grazie Mille, Ciao!
