I stayed a month in this flat, with another person, and globally it was fine.
- Arrival: even if Roberto was not here when I arrived, his assistant was there on time to give me the key and show me the studio.
-Location: very convenient. Near to the center but not in a noisy area. 6 minutes walk to San Marco and Galleria dell'Accademia, 15 minutes to the Duomo, 20 minutes to Ponte Vecchio and 25 minutes to Palazzo Pitti. So we almost never took a bus during our stay.
- Silence: the studio is truly silent, and one can sleep with no noise. As I have a very light sleep, I'm easily disturbed by noise, so you can believe me when I say there was none in this flat.
- The studio: it's fine and functional for a short stay for 2 persons and all the objects are like shown in the pictures. However, the exaggerated brightness of the pictures can lead to think that the studio is in a better shape than it is really. I was a bit disappointed by this difference.
There is an AC, but it was not working during our stay. The landlord told me that it's very difficult to find anyone in August as the whole country is on holidays (which is true). So we had to survive with fans, but with a temperature between 32 and 38°C every day, it was sometimes a bit difficult.
Besides, we would have appreciated to have some little things at our disposal at our arrival, like salt, olive oil, soap for dishes, at least some of it for the very first days.
Moreover, some details could be changed, like the (very) old curtain which screens the light of the bedroom (but it works: very few light is passing though).
Nevertheless, there is there is a washing machine, which is an important item when you stay several weeks.
- The building : the studio is inside an historical building, which is quite impressive as it had been designed by Raffaello, but unfortunately we didn't see more than the entrance and the stairs. What a pity! We would have appreciated to have some explanation about it, or a short visit of it.
- Solving problems: Roberto has been reactive when I sent him messages. For example, when had a problem with hot water, he called someone and it was solved the same day. That was efficient.
-Cleanliness: A regular cleaning has been made by a very competent, effective and discreet handmaid. In a word, she is a gem. A very nice service.
Anyway, as I said it was globally fine, but some improvements can easily be done.
