Elias’s apartment was the perfect location, within walking distance from everything we wanted to do in Florence. The apartment was a great size, and for 3 adults it was perfect because we each had our own space to sleep. Unfortunately for sleeping the living room and mezzanine were very noisy, with audible traffic outside the window even when windows were shut. But the bedroom was quiet and comfortable.
We never met Elias but he was very easy to communicate with during check in. His friend was there to greet us when we arrived, and was very kind and helpful. However, we had delays in our arrival, and were quite surprised that Elias charged us a last minute cash fee for late check in, at 10:45pm. We were also a bit disappointed, as some of the amenities Elias advertised, such as breakfast included, were really lacking. For 3 people for 3 days, he barely provided enough food even for one day’s breakfast.
Nonetheless it was a pleasant stay overall.
