Our overall experience with the residence was really nice. The location is very central, right next to the Santa Maria del Fiore. So if you want to enjoy the really old and precious parts of Florence, this choice is the right one - if you can find it. Because the people in florence don't have a number for each house but more like the same number for three houses, which is kind of dumb but then again each number has a different color so you'd think that shouldn't be a problem except of course that it is because first you have to know about the fact that these guys kind of messed up numbering their buildings and secondly the colors aren't so easy do distinguish.
But you know there's Google Maps so that's easy, right. Well no, because it shows you a wrong location so the weird numbering of the buildings doesn't just mess up your sense of orientation but also seems to confuse Google.
But after a bit of communication nevertheless we found it.
It's a really cozy place. Looks a bit bigger on the pictures than in real life but you still have plenty of room for you and your friends. Also you have three bathrooms. We were 5 people so there was absolutely no fighting over who gets to shower first or stuff. We really appreciated it. Another plus: It's very cleaned up and the interior decoration is lovely. It looks and feels modern, but also very homely. You are provided some of the basics for hygiene like towels and shower gel, which also is nice and surely appreciated by most people. Also you have a kitchen. It's small but you have everything you need. Keep in mind that the stove works inductively. Don't play around and wait for it to work without a pan, slowly dying of starvation. Just put a pan on the thing an it'll work.
You have no drinks or spices there so if you wanna get fancy you'll have to buy some beforehand.
You have a TV, basically, but first of all it's pretty small, secondly if you go to Florence to watch TV you probably have to reevaluate your life choices. If you still wanna use it you have to fondle around with the cable since it has a slack joint. But seriously, you shouldn't care. Enjoy the city.
So all in all our experience there was splendid because we were provided with the most important things: Bed, showers, kitchen, everything cleaned up and a working AC. We really couldn't complain about the important aspects of this place. If you want to stay in a nice, cozy and clean place with a pinch of Amsterdam in the interior, this is the place you want to be.
By the way don't drive around in a car in Florence. We parked outside of the city. There are Italians on the street of which most drive like they robbed a bank and are chased by the police. Also there are streets in Florence on which you are not allowed to drive if you don't have a permit and you probably wouldn't be able to distinguish one from the other. Just don't.
