This apartment is located walking distance from Florence’s downtown historical district. The hosts’s description of the light/dark turn-off use of the key is useful to remember, the apartment is beautiful, the air conditioner was fantastic, the lighting is delightful and so very refreshing after a long day of walking, touring and site seeing. The large bed was very comfortable and the extra single size murphy hide-away-bed is an absolutely brilliant for use of space.
The low rating is because of the narrow stairway, unacceptable linens, and no soap and no shampoo…
The linens on the bed were clean, but the extra linens for the hide-away-bed reeked of urine. The stairs are one single flight but are so narrow and small that guests should be warned of a struggle with luggage, multiple luggage or large check bags. That being said, it is perfect for backpackers, but definitely not for tired cyclists and soap and shampoo should be stocked. A bike can fit but not without serious struggle.
FYI, there is no modest breakfast, there was no body nor hand soap.
