You could not have a better location, living room over looking the river and the bedroom actually sits under the Vasari Corridor, with a view over the Ponte Vecchio bridge. Apartment is very old and quirky, with low ceilings in places. We loved our stay and would definitely stay again, and would highly recommend. Maybe if you prefer luxury and mod-cons you may prefer somewhere different.

A part of history

This was nowhere near a run of the mill location. It felt more like living history and was the immersion into the area I know we would never have found anywhere else. The lower mark for checking in was mainly the challenges of cell service, but we made it. We've been gushing about the experience and how it added to our overall stay since our return.

Amazing location very historical

The location in the Ponte Vecchio bridge near is the best location for touring the town. Interesting architecture and antiques inside. Only issue is amenities - not much in the kitchen - tiny mocha pot - no glasses - no real plates- no soap in bathroom. Hot water was an issue on arrival but was resolved by host quickly.

Location is fabulous and view from living room is lovely. There is no a/c in the bedroom but if you open the windows it’s really loud plus the mosquitos were awful. Bought 2 cans of bug spray and still got bites all over. Would like property more in winter.

Disliked: Cleanliness

We stayed for two nights at this apartment.

The Good: Location, location, location! The apartment is very well situated in Florence—within walking distance of most major attractions. Check-in was smooth and easy. While the bedroom was a bit noisy, that’s to be expected when staying on a bridge and in such a central area.The Bad: The apartment is quite old and feels dusty. While the sheets, towels, and bathroom were clean, the rest of the space could use a deep cleaning. The carpeting throughout is very worn and, in some areas, appears to have mold or mildew.The Ugly: Unfortunately, we encountered bugs—either fleas or bedbugs—in the bedroom. After waking up with bites, we opted to sleep on the couch the second night.

Fantastic Unique stay on the Ponte Vecchio

This was one of the most unique and pleasant stays I’ve experienced on any trip. The room was right on the Ponte Vecchio. The bedroom window overlooking the bridge itself and the living room French doors overlooking the Arno. The view was beautiful and unique. If you ever watched the movie A Room With a View, you are right there. The building is centuries old and because of that very well insulated and interesting with arched ceilings and interesting architecture. Because of the building’s age there a few minor idiosyncrasies in the modernization of the room, but these added to its character and charm. All in all we absolutely loved our stay here. The location and atmosphere were amazing!

Rustic but lovely stay.

This is a very old apartment on the non tourist side of the Ponte Vecchio, so we were not expecting 5 star hotel accommodations and for the most part loved our stay. The location was fantastic and the bed was comfortable. However, we only received 2 towels (for 2 people) for a week long stay and there were no toiletries available. We had to run out to buy toilet paper, soap and shampoo. The apartment was clean but needs a really good deep clean, there was a lot of dust on all the decor and fans. We were also eaten alive by mosquitoes, which I won’t hold against the hosts, but I recommend that you bring bug spray and after bite if you choose to stay here!

It's Italy

Terrific location. The bedroom is not airconditioned. The living room has a floor unit that cools a little bit. The shower/tub is small and dangerous. Nothing to hang onto and have to bend over and step down into tub/shower. Needs a seat and handrail. Wonderful place, bathing arrangements easy to fix, have to be fixed. Very misleading to say it's air conditioned. Really enjoyed! Honest description would have been helpful

Most Historically Authentic (but more convenient) Place I've ever Stayed

Every time we walked through the exterior door and up the concrete steps we were delighted. We pondered what the space may have been used for centuries before. The location was excellent and we laughed more than one night as we heard newly arriving visitors to the city arguing about directions on the bridge. The view across the river is magical and was the source of additional musings of the "secret passage," The Vasari Corridor that runs above the bridge. We felt completely immersed in history with our 16th century hair because of the bathroom water pressure, LOL. We would absolutely stay here again! Thank you for sharing your space with us Stefania.

Ponte Vecchio

This location was amazing. Out one window is the Ponte Vecchio River and out the other is right on the bridge (bring earplugs). That aspect is a dream! The communication was great. The host responded quickly. The decor was eclectic and quirky and certainly matched the age of the location. So cute. I wish there was some attention to detail with the inside. Stained rugs, peeling wallpaper. We had to buy toilet paper, there were no garbage bags and no written instructions about wifi, garbage, burners/gas.

Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities, communication
Positives: The room was in a great part of town. Walkable to bus stop and many dining options. That was all that was good here. Negatives: The host was rude and unprofessional. The apartment was filthy and unsanitary like it had not been cleaned properly. The TV did not work, some of the radiant heaters were not functioning. And the appliances in the kicken like water kettle and cutting boards were old and dirty. Long detailed explanation of my experience below: I reached out to the host on my day of arrival and arranged a meeting time. They specified that they could not meet me until after 7:30pm since they were checking in other guests. When I met with the host at the residence at 8:00pm she mentioned that I needed to pay a 30 euro late check in fee. I asked what was considered late and she said anytime after 7:00pm. She would not give me the keys until I paid the fee and she demanded that I pay the late check in fee and city+local tax in cash. Due to the hostile attitude I paid the fees in cash to secure the keys. When I checked the residence I found several issues such as unsanitary conditions (dirty contacts on a nightstand) so I messaged the host. She send they would send cleaners the following day. She was rude and sarcastic through messages and never followed up on any of her promises. Beware of this host, they are untrustworthy and don't respect paying tenants. Think twice before reserving and booking this residence. There are much better options in the area.

History Come to Life

Before this stay, I didn't even know that people could live/stay ON/in the Ponte Vecchio! This immensely charming apartment not only has unparalleled views of the Palazzo Vecchio Tower and the picturesque outside of the bridge itself, but the bedroom window looks directly onto the Ponte Vecchio, right over a jewelry store below! The apartment was richly decorated with Italian antiques, and we felt like we had stepped into historical Florence--it was incredible! Note for future visitors: there are low ceilings (even at 5' 2" I ran into an arch a time or two) and the layout of the apartment is quite unusual (all due to it being an original, historic property), so keep that in mind. Also, the mosquitoes are fierce right near the river, even when we were there in November. Lastly, while it was absolutely a perfect set-up for my husband and I as it felt more authentic, this place is not set up as a luxury stay, so don't expect highly modern appliances/lighting/plumbing, etc. While it could use some updating here and there, everything is functional if somewhat outdated (I can only imagine how hard/expensive and a serious undertaking it would be to modernize the space within such an original and historic building framework!!). WE LOVED this place and hope that it stays a hidden gem so that we can afford to stay here again in the future!

Bathroom needs reshreshing, no longer looks like pictures. Soiled shower curtain, peeling wall paper, and mold around the tub. This place could be awesome with consistent cleaning and maintenance.

The location of this property is breathtaking. One really feels like part of old medieval Florence here. The grocery steps from the front door is a massive plus. A five minute walk to the Uffizi! Would absolutely stay here again.
View from the window. That's the Uffizi just across the bridge.
