Giglio Oro Apartment in via Gioberti in Florence by Mmega

The apartment was nice and local to everything. Walking to destinations was easy and felt local but also we were close to the action. Apartment had lots of mosquitos and the air conditioner for the room with two single beds was behind the wall? Was pretty uncomfortable for me staying in that room. Other room and living room pullout was fine and AC hit good. Pros: Location, cleanliness, and easy communication. Cons: Mosquitos (out of their control) and the AC for the second room.

Nice location out of the fully tourist area but still walkable for those who like to walk. So nicely decorated but...the beds were very uncomfortable, the ceiling leaked, the induction stove needs clear instructions and would be easier with actual induction cookware. Great restaurant below(was not noisy late). Mosquitos also coming in from somewhere...not a new problem-signs of them killed on the walls.

This is a very charming apt. Great location - close to a supermarket, restaurants, and shopping. Cleanliness: Overall everything was fresh and clean with the exception of the washing machine. When I opened it up to use it, it was very wet and had a pair of someone else's wet socks in there. It smelled so bad that I couldn't bring myself to wash our clothes in it. I did make the management aware of this situation, and hopefully they've addressed the issue for future guests. During our stay, we had issues with the toilet frequently not flushing and the shower would back up to our ankles when we used it. I contacted management about these things and they were very quick to communicate and offered to send the handyman to fix the problems, which we appreciated. Afterwards, the toilet flushed again but only temporarily. However, the shower still did not drain properly. Accuracy of listing: It says there is an oven. There is an induction stove top, but no oven. It also says that there is a coffee maker. This is not entirely accurate. There is a stovetop espresso maker, however it is not compatible with the induction stove top and therefore useless. There were also many pots and pans available, but most of them were useless bc they were not induction compatible. Another point I feel the need to point out: The person who checked us in was trying to tell us not to use the AC. We did not appreciate this bc AC is the main reason we selected this apt.

Location was great, easy to get to bus stops to go any place in Florence. It was clean and had everything we needed. We really enjoyed staying here and the restaurant below the apartment was very good. This was our favorite place we stayed while in Italy.

This property was clean and updated. It was easy to communicate with host. It was in a quiet area. The only downside was that it was a 20-30 minute walk to everything we wanted to see.

Great little place just a short walk outside the city center. About 10-15 minutes of walking to the Duomo. The area is more suburban and quiet than the inner city. There are several parking garages within walking distance if you have a vehicle. A very delicious Pizza place is right next door for dinner.

Apartment was very clean and looked amazing! Everything worked flawlessly. Very close to many shops and restaurants. About a 30 min walk from the duomo and the david. Slept five without a problem.

Well apportioned and modern. Faily close to some sites. Walk was about 2 k to main exhibits. Plumbing of toilet problematic.

We arrived in Florence later than what check-in was, but we communicated what time we were set to arrive with the host (also adding we did not have a phone plan so we could only message when we had wifi). The person letting us into the apartment was late, these things happen, but we had just been traveling all day with two young kids so it was off to a bad start. We were let in to the apartment only to find it was not yet cleaned (check-in was at 2pm and this was around 5pm), we were told to leave all our bags and go eat and the place would be cleaned within an hour and a half. As we were finding a place to leave our bags that was not completely filthy, the cleaners arrived and told us they would be done in 20 minutes. I told them to please take their time, not to rush, we would go for dinner and come back in a couple hours. When we got back I could see they couldn't have taken longer than 20 minutes. The floors were SO dirty, all the high touch areas (door handles and door frames, light switches, etc) were caked on with dirt--I had some antibacterial wipes and used those to scrub the dirt off these areas, and there was a VERY thick layer of dust on all the decor and tops of cabinets. The extra blankets looked like they were disposable and were all ripped and one was very stained. It was very disappointing how dirty everything was, even the walls were completely scuffed up--nothing like the crisp looking apartment from the photos. All that said, it was a great location.

Loved our stay! So cute. Perfect location away from city center but close enough to walk. Toilet was broken for first day but quickly fixed. No extra supplies so make sure you purchase toilet paper as there were only two rolls. Very cute!! Thank you Edoardo
