We stayed at Massimo’s apartment for 4 weeks in July and we had a wonderful experience! The location is fantastic — so close to the Duomo, Piazza della Signoria, the river, all the great food and shopping, yet somehow the street you stay on is completely quiet and relaxed. There is a fabulous restaurant literally next door called Icche C’é C’é which we loved so much we went 3 times.
True, the bathroom is very long and narrow — people who take up more space horizontally or vertically might have trouble, but I’m 5’5”, my brother is 5’9”, we’re each between 155 - 190 lbs, and it was fine for us.
Also the smaller bedroom (with bunk beds) only had a standing fan, not A/C, and for some reason the bedroom windows don’t open (only living room do, for hanging laundry outside). It was very hot in there without air flow — but the bigger bedroom and living room have A/C, so the rest of the apartment was comfortable for us.
It was great to have a dishwasher, washing machine, and the ability to dry clothes on the line out the window. We had a great kitchen for entertaining friends, and a big enough apartment that we each had privacy.
Overall a great month-long stay and we would return!
