Amazing View

We loved staying at this apartment!You get the feel of how the old style Itlalian living was.There are LOTS of stairs getting to the apartment and in the apartment itself but it is so worth it!The living room area is way up at the top of this building and the view we had up there was amazing! We got to see some beautiful sunsets from up there.The apartment is also in a great location, close to many restaurants, bars and shops and just a short walk to main attractions/museums.We all would highly recommend staying here!

Charming, Old World Apartment close to everything

We really enjoyed our stay. Very comfortable apartment with 2 large bedrooms and a loft overlooking Florence. 2 great bathrooms and very nice kitchen. Be warned.. 96 steps from the ground floor to the apartment. Once inside 3 grand floors of old world charm.

Top of Firenze

The apartment was lovely and the pictures are accurate. The location was perfect, halfway between the Duomo and Santa Croce. The views were amazing but you pay for them by climbing all the stairs to the unit. If you are in good condition this apartment is for you!

Great location and view

The location is great - walking distance to all downtown attractions. The view from the top floor is spectacular. Bathrooms and kitchen were very clean, but the floors have not been washed in a long time. Walking around barefoot or in socks was not possible.

Great stay in Florence

We enjoyed our stay at this property! The stairs were a bit of a challenge, but the view and location made it worth it! We arrived in Florence via train. We were called by property manager while arriving. He greeted us at the door and gave us good instructions about the home. The location was excellent. Great walkable location. We took a pasta cooking class that was literally right next door. The class was fun with lots of wine!! Would recommend this property to my friends!

Yes, 90+ steps. But spectacular views!!

Torre Donati was a magical place to make home base for touring around Florence for a few days. Heating was great for December. Had a brief electrical outage one day and host was great about communications & getting it fixed ASAP. Would definitely stay again. Views from the penthouse living room were fabulous day + night.

Out of breath!

This property is wonderful! GREAT location! Florence was our favorite, shops were convenient, food was delicious! But this property is not for you if you aren’t physically fit! Too to many stairs & then to get luggage up there, God help you! 87 steps to get to this place! View was great, from the 3rd floor! Beds were very hard! Bring your own towels, if you can!

Interesting experience in mideaval tower

We really liked the stay in the tower. The view is breath-taking and was the highlight of our stay in Florence. It's centrally located, close to major sights.Property management company is responsive. We didn’t have hot water on a night we came in. They fixed it next day. I’d suggest to provide household supplies based on number of days guests are staying. We were there for 6 days and had only 2 tablets for dish-washer, 1 garbage bag.Overall good experience and I can recommend it for other travellers.

Beautiful views, wonderful location

Yes, the stairs are challenging- especially during check in and check out, but we loved being so close to everything. It can get a bit noisy in the late night, wee hours but we enjoyed the positives! The only criticism is that the address was difficult to find- our maps took us to the wrong location and it was frustrating trying to find the building. Overall, it was a great experience!!

Excellent!!!

Absolutely great location! There are a lot of steps - but the listing is clear on that… worth the view and plenty of space to spread out! Clean and in a fantastic neighborhood. Walked the entire city. Check-in was odd - but I think it was in part because they weren’t getting my texts. Just be sure to be in touch early and often. They are very close by to give you keys and check you in. Great sport. Would recommend!

Gorgeous Torre Donati Apartment

Absolutely amazing place to stay! Plan to spend a part of each evening in the loft, as the sunsets over the city are spectacular…. Kitchen is well-stocked with dishware but bring your own kitchen soap, seasonings, etc, if you plan to cook/clean (we only did breakfast in the apartment, with meats, cheeses, and produce from the market at the base of the apartment stairs)). LOCATION is wonderful: we walked (with our roller bags) from the train station (about 20 min walk), past the Baptistry and the Duomo to get to the apartment. There are lots of steps to get to this apartment, but every one of them is worth it!

3 Nights in Florence

The many stairs are well worth the views from the top floors. The apartment and baths were very clean and sheets and towels were good quality. Location is convenient for all walking access around the city. Our only negative was the local contact, Shivam, who was late for the check-in and ignored requests to replace several lightbulbs that were not working. The apartment is in a pedestrian only zone so you will need to walk a short distance to access it from taxi or bus drop off.

Unique place

First off I'll say the views are amazing. Big windows in all rooms that overlook beautiful Florence. Odd layout with steps up/down to each room. The room you walk into is the family room/kitchen/bathroom. Couch is stained and not very inviting. Crumbs in the kitchen and our socks were filthy after walking around. Dustbunnies in the corner of the bedrooms. Also, we love hearing the sounds of the city, but you could hear actual conversations at the bar nearby until 2am, even with the windows closed. Location was good besides the bar noise. Views on top floor are amazing but the steps prevented you from using it all that much. Could be a cool place with some deep cleaning and a paint job throughout.

Excellent place for younger people

This amazing place is on the fourth floor of a very beautiful and old building. There is no elevator in the building. There are 87 steps to get to the front door of the unit and the unit is three stories on the inside with 40 steps to get to the living room. So all and all you'd need to go up 127 steps to get to the living room with amazing views of Florence. The views are amazing, location is great, unit is clean, the only concern are the steps.

Amazing View

The best part of this property is the view from the top floor! Amazing 180 degree+ view of the city. Overall the place is in a great location, is spacious, and great for a family - with some small things to take note of. There are approximately 90 stairs to get to the apartment's entrance so if you have a lot of heavy bags be aware! Also, below and outside of the master bedroom window is an Irish pub which during our stay was partying loudly well into the early morning hours. In spite of those two minor inconveniences, we'd definitely stay there again.

Florence review

Although we. Loved our first stay in Florence, the checkin process was not easy. We waited for admin for over 45 minutes to arrive. When they did, they gave us the wrong address. The property does have a lot of steps but the views are amazing! The property did not have enough towels or sheets for the pullout sofa. When we arrived, the Wi-Fi and heat were not working. They did have someone out quickly. Overall, we enjoyed our stay. It would def help if the property had more kitchen and bath essentials. They did not have dish soap or even salt and pepper.

Wonderful Stay

We loved our stay here! Because of all the prior reviews, we knew what to expect with the stairs, and we managed just fine. There are a lot of them! The views from the upper floor, and even the main floor, are amazing and worth the extra effort! There were 5 of us, aged 45-74, and all made it up and down fine several times per day. I would recommend against staying if you have trouble navigating stairs, as some are narrow and uneven depth, particularly inside the apartment. Very centrally located and easy to walk around the city. Neighborhood is lively throughout the night so one of our group wore ear plugs to bed to help with the sound. But everyone else did fine. Beds were comfortable with no issues - could have used one more blanket, but it was ok. Property manager and maintenance were very responsive to all of our questions and check-in was easy. Would stay here again!

Neighborhood and View are Amazing

This property is very unique —it is in a tower and the view of Florence from the top floor is spectacular. Yes, there are a lot of steps up to the unit but if you are moderately healthy the steps are fine. Communication with the host was very good and check in was seamless. The unit itself has most of the basics you need but the bedding provided is lacking. The beds are made up with a fitted sheet and one top sheet. There were two additional random blankets stored —my daughter used the comfy comforter and I used the old, thin blanket one night. Unfortunately, after using that blanket I woke up with bites on my face and neck. So, it would be beneficial to update the place with a new, comfortable blanket for each bed in case guests prefer to sleep with more than a top sheet. The power in just our unit went out twice but we were told where the box was to flip the switch which did bring it back on. The place is in the middle of a lively square which is great but it is very loud until about 2am—so if you are going to sleep you may want to put on white noise. Overall, the location and view and space is great but adding fresh, clean bedding would be hugely beneficial.

If not for the view, one star

The views of this property are incredible, truly an opportunity to sit back and take in Florence. Unfortunately, there were a lot of issues with the property management. The girl that helped us check in met us at the door downstairs. She looked at us and just said “there’s a lot of stairs” and she ran off without even offering to help. She was short and seemed like she was in a hurry. She charged us a late fee even though we weren’t notified we’d be charged extra for getting there later. The blanket in the main bedroom had blood and makeup on it. The kitchen wasn’t cleaned thoroughly so we had to clean the glasses and everything. The toilet had urine upon arrival. We had to ask for extra toilet paper, paper towels, blankets and a few other items but we only got the toilet paper, extra sheets even though we asked for a blanket, and a dish towel. We messaged the owner but didn’t get a response to all of our questions. We asked maybe 5-7 questions and only got a yes. We also reached out to Vrbo customer service but they weren’t much help either. Overall disappointing and we won’t be using Vrbo again due to this experience.

Disappointed

Yes, I read the description and reviews that clearly state there are stairs, but to be clear, it’s 132 stairs from street to top level of the unit, all of which are very narrow and winding and uneven and not air conditioned. After 92 stairs, you enter living quarters. The street below is lively and the windows muffle but do not block the noise, so be prepared to hear parties and music and cars until 3-4 am. The AC units are inadequate for the size of the house (and July 2023 heat wave) making the top floor unusable space( presumably the main reason you’d stay here). It was over 100 degrees there. The “2nd floor” bedroom is 25 additional stairs once in the living quarters and never cooled below estimated 90 degrees F during our stay. Couch in the living room was not usable due to staining and no sheets. The stairs inside the unit are circular and tight making luggage transport even more of an issue than the first 90 stairs. The water pressure and temperature are very good, however the taste is off. The king size bed is two twins stuck together and they slide on the floor. Five of us were supposed to stay here 2 days. Three never stayed after the first glance. Two others stayed one night but couldn’t tolerate the heat and noise and overall grime and left early. We lost several hundred euro, but there was no choice. Shivam (not the host, but the check-in person?) was polite and was able to accommodate an early check-in and arrived to turn over the keys and show us around.

Awesome property! Great check in process, the place was very safe and right beside our pasta making class. If you're a fan of partaking in night life this property rocks! We went and met a bunch of other foreign exchange students and had a blast. The view from the property was incredible as well! Highly recommend!
