In the heart of the historic center of Florence, a few steps from the Santa Maria Novella station and the main monuments of the city, is this splendid apartment, an elegant residence on the top floor of a historic building (with no lift).
Characterized by spacious and bright rooms, the apartment welcomes guests with a refined and authentic atmosphere, thanks to furnishings designed down to the smallest details, which combine the charm of antiques with the functionality of modern design. The large ceilings with exposed wooden beams, the parquet and Florentine terracotta floors tell the story and character of the Tuscan tradition, while the windows offer suggestive views of the city's rooftops and the magnificent Basilica of Santa Maria Novella.
The house offers a generous size and is spread over two levels, ensuring comfortable and well-distributed spaces. The tastefully furnished living room is the perfect place to relax after a day exploring the city. The kitchen, fully equipped with oven, dishwasher and all modern comforts, invites you to moments of conviviality. The three elegantly furnished double bedrooms offer a peaceful rest, while the three complete bathrooms with shower ensure maximum comfort even for large groups. A practical closet and the presence of a washing machine make the apartment perfect even for longer stays.
The house is completed by a beautiful terrace, an intimate and suggestive corner where you can enjoy the view over the rooftops of Florence and be enveloped by the unique charm of the city.
The apartment can accommodate up to 8people, thanks to the three double beds and 2additional beds located in the living room. It is equipped with air conditioning and three TVs, ensuring maximum comfort for all guests.
An exclusive solution for those who want to experience Florence in an elegant, authentic and history-rich context, with all the services and wonders of the city within easy reach.
The location and Check In Process was excellent. Very close to the train station and centrally located for the major attractions in the city. One of the bathrooms when we arrived had clearly not been cleaned and the hot water heater did not work after our first day.
Points faibles : Communication, exactitude de lâannonce
First, NO ELEVATOR, itâs buried in fine print but you should make a real point of letting people know itâs 91 steps to the flat. The WORST bed in all of Italy. Terrible box spring and horrible HORRIFIC mattress. I made mention and there was zero attempt to replace the broken bed and terrible mattress. The place is run down, with the cheapest plastic furniture. It needs real attention. Not worth the money.
The host was in a hurry when we checked in.....she rushed up the stairs and once in the apartment she went over the apartment quickly and left, no time for questions. The bathrooms are not in the best of shape, and we ran out of hot water several times. The toilet upstairs is falling off the wall. The shower door in the lower level was jammed and we couldn't get into the shower. Be ready to walk up 4 flights of stairs with luggage, no elevator. (the other 3 houses we rented during our 12 day stay had elevators)Not very comfortable living area furniture. TV didn't work! Reached out to the host with no solution. And the bedroom TV's didn't have remotes. The bed were not comfortable at all with very small pillows. We got several bottles of wine to relax in one evening, no wire opener or wine glasses. On the positive note: the apartment had a great location to lots of great restaurants and thank goodness a coffee shop because we didn't have a coffee maker.
Check in was fine. Agent was responsive but after that no word. The hot water wasnât working and nobody was there to help despite us texting. We ran it for 10 minutes and it didnât turn on. I donât think the heaters worked as well. There was a mosquito problem. Our kids got a lot of bites. The couch outside had tiny ted bugs crawling around. Although mentioned, the stairs up to the top floor were tough. Low water pressure in bathroom. There was a window from the shower to the bedroom which was crazy. Other shower window also had visibility from outside. Wouldnât recommend this place.
