This place is good for some and not for others . The location is very central to the plazas of Florence . This is good but, presents issues like no ability to park and unload your bags to make the 55 step walk up to the place.
The second major issue is the noise . The yelling begins around 10 pm with 40 somethings and then the club opens and its 20 year olds till 5 am .
It is only loud because the air conditioning is not sufficient . So you need to have the windows open at night and with no screens it lets the noise and the mosquitos in .
We stayed at the place for a month while my husband attended sculpting school. I chose the place to be close to his school. I usually like hosts that have one or a few places . This allows great communication and you feel like a priority. When I booked the place the host was Lorenzo . I can not say anything about him because upon arrival in Europe Mattia sent a message that he would be our host . Mattia has many places and a realestate business . So he was very busy and did not always respond to messages , like needing a fan that we purchased.
The kitchen does not have a toaster , microwave or dishwasher. it did not have knives that later Mattia brought. We left a few purchases to make a future stay better.
The bathroom is fine but no shelves and as described in some other reviews the water temperature is hard to manage. It is hot or cold
Mattia was a little un-polite with us regarding a worry about us being clean . This could be language related or a concern about our dogs . We explained several times that we mopped and vacuumed daily and deep cleaned every 3 days . My husband has OCD so he cleans all the time. We left the place spotless and took photos.
If you are young and want to party in the city for up to a week , this place is good. If it is not to hot out.
With a simple fix the the air conditioning and hot water it could be better for more folks because the windows could be closed .
