Great location at the foot of the Ponte Vecchio. Bed is extremely comfortable. Host answered all questions quickly. Quiet in spite of all the crowds. Would stay again anytime.

Unsatisfactory experience with poor service and cleanliness ​Our stay started on a high-stress note. The meeting point to receive the room keys was in a side alley, and the actual building differed from the address and photos provided beforehand. ​The room orientation was minimal at best. After handing over the keys, the staff member tried to leave immediately. Even when we asked them to stay and answer basic questions about the amenities, appliances, and how to use them, they simply replied that they didn't know well which felt very insincere. ​Additionally, the room carpet was dirty and had a musty mold smell. ​The only positive aspect of this property was its excellent location, offering convenient access to restaurants, sightseeing spots, and shopping. ​Overall, however, I cannot recommend staying here.

I've been to Florence many times and this was by far the best place I've stayed in. The location is just phenomenal, and the view is outstanding. Its not quiet, its not pristine, but its beautiful and bustling and the apartment itself is full of interesting artefacts and furniture that fully immerse you in Florentine life. I will keep booking for future visits, highly recommend.

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.

The room was in the perfect location, right on the river. My wife and I would pick up dinner and wine, sit at the table with the terrace doors open and enjoying the river view, overlooking the city. It is decorated the way you would want while in Florence. My wife described it as an Italian Grandma’s home. My only negative, which is not going to affect most people is the place is not made for tall people, I hit my head a few times going through the doorways.

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.

Can’t beat the location, did not find to be too loud after dark and everything worked as it should in the apartment. Clean but not glamorous. Communication with he host was great and any questions were quickly responded to.

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.

Great location

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.

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!

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.

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.
