You will not find a better location. 35 meters from the Ponte Vecchio. Walking out the door into the street, you feel like a local. You are right in the middle of the historic distract on the Arno River. No car needed. I walked everywhere during my 2 week stay. Very inexpensive for the location.
Marusca allowed me to check in early and met me. Very accommodating. Gave me some great guidance on restaurants and such that were spot on. That really helped.
If you are like me, you will book this place based on the picture from the living room window that’s advertised. It’s accurate. However, I should have been informed before arrival that scaffolding and netting covered the building as they were painting. Took some starch out of the view.
I was working. The internet was plenty fast to run zoom or Google meets. Marusca even provided a backup hotspot which was awesome.
The building is old and historic. The rooms are small and so are the door frames and such. People were shorter when this place was built. I’m 5’11”. Bumped my head a couple times but no harm. Fitting four people can be done but I would think it would feel cramped after a couple days. Perfect for a couple. Maybe a child too. But not 4 adults.
Final verdict? Love the place. I am hoping to stay in the same apartment in the future. Next time I stay for a month. The only real knock was the construction. But the place will look even better when the painting is done.
Book it. Book it now!
