Riverside Apartment in the oldest and most magical part of Florence

Very charming property. Beds are comfortable, location is great, and the patio is a nice bonus. There are steep stairs inside the apartment so keep that in mind if it’s an issue. Our young kids loved the quirky layout and the outdoor space. Highly recommend.

The layout of the apartment was not clear. Everything was on a different level with stairs for every room. There was no place to open and use luggage. 2nd bathroom was at top of a spiral staircase.

This property is in an excellent location close to almost everything worth seeing in Florence. It does have an elevator but only for the first two floors with stairs pictured leading to the apartment on the 3 level. The pictures seem to indicate two porches. However, both photos pictured are of the same area with different furniture. This is deceptive and should only have one picture. There are several steps in the interior of the apartment which are not clear in the photos. The largest bedroom is 3 steps below the hall without a handrail. Not comfortable for anyone concerned about their balance. Also, the bathroom adjacent to this bedroom has steps with no handrail. The hairdryer in this bathroom does not plug into the outlet as the plug is too large. We had adapters which overcame this unnecessary oversite. We did find a trash container under the sink. The porch was not clean with a rusted metal round cylinder in the corner and pigeon feathers in another corner. I would not recommend this unit for anyone who has issues with steps or balance due to the lack of support on the 3 step passages mentioned above. We found the interior clean. I would give it a 10 for location and a 6/7 the living set up.

Family friendly in a great location.

The location was great…all the way to the top was not bad however there were several sets of stairs without the apartment (didn’t like this too much).

I would give this property a 1 star if not for the wonderful Martina (a young employee) who took care of us. This property is owned by a corporation that does NOT care about customers. They didn't make any effort to make us comfortable (no water, no shampoo, no coverlets on the beds - just one sheet, no trash can or bag in the kitchen). The place was also quite old and needs a lot of care to bring it up to standard (dirty furniture that no one wanted to sit on, broken window glass, super dirty vents...). The only communication we ever got was about them getting their cleaning fee and taxes in cash the day we arrived. They sent us FIVE reminders. Will never return and do not recommend.

Tucked away on a quiet street, this apartment is within 10 minutes or less from almost everything you'd want to do or see in Florence. Highly recommend!

The apartment was fantastically located to explore Florence throughout the day. As a photographer, I appreciated being close to everything for easy access at sunrise.

The property is really nice and in an excellent location. Our stay was great though there were a few issues. I never met our host throughout the stay. I received an email the day before arrival saying they required the cleaning fee and local taxes in cash though it turned out they could charge my card. Apartment information was brief and on the back of the entry door, it looked more like a fire safety sign. There were two hair driers, neither worked and a washing machine, but no detergent. We had an air conditioner that was broken/being repaired during a heat wave. It look longer than promised to resolve and there were no fans in the apartment nor any offered. It's also worth noting that the apartment is on the 5th floor. There is a lift/elevator but then a flight of stairs. Also, the single room, while great, is at the top of two flights of very steep stairs and it has no door. If you have small children or anyone with mobility issues it's helpful to know in advance. All in all a great apartment, some attention to detail could have made our stay easier and more pleasant.

We had a great stay, and SimplyHome was quick to answer our questions. It's a very nice place....but...the elevator only goes to third floor, and the apartment is on fourth... So when the elevator reaches the top, you still have 19 steps on a very narrow staircase before the apartment. Inside there is 26 stairs on an even more narrow staircase, to the single bed room, three steps down to the master bedroom, and also some up to the last bedroom. Apart from that - we loved the place, the neighborhood and Firenze it self, and would consider comming back (when it's not 38 degrees!).
