The listing and the pictures are accurate as shown. The apartment is located right on the river in a central location more or less.
However this listing is a prime example of “Instagram vs. Reality” The pictures were probably taken when the apartment was first made ready for rental (years ago) Fast forward to 2021 and the walls are now smudged, stained, splattered on and some even have dead bugs (esp in the bathroom). The tan oversized couch you see in the pictures is full of stains and has an odor of sweat and feet.
I promise you, you’ll be repulsed to sit on it (we even tried laying out a bed sheet, but the scent permeated the fabric) The listing owner has a “buddy” meet you who has strict contact procedures for your check in, if they’re not followed you are greeted with hostility and aggression and which leads to a fake awkward welcome when you finally meet for the key exchange. The place is cold, the heater barely warms the apt (which is crucial with the high ceilings and concrete walls).
Overall the place is big and spacious and was probably nice at ONE POINT, but it needs serious maintenance and the walls should definitely be repainted. The best thing about the apartment is the views from the window and the shower pressure.
On a side note, there is a window in the shower which is fairly big. Anyone who glances up from the street will DEFINITELY see your naked torso as you lather away. I doubt a female would shower comfortably in here unless you’re a secret exhibitionist.
Florence is huge. You can do better.
