The view is certainly beautiful and the location is in the heart of Florence, which makes it ideal for visits.
However we were disappointed by quite a few elements:
- we had heavy luggage and no advice as to an easy access to the flat (we were only given advice as how to get there on foot).
- we weren't told that there were two ways of reading the addresses of the street (commercial outlet numbers are red and house numbers are blue). So we got lost. And though we were late and told sylvia we were trying to find a bus to get to the flat, we were given no further advice. Therefore with our heavy luggage we got to the flat extremely late and exhausted. Then there were still 4 flights of stairs...
- the light at the entrance of the corridor has not been replaced (be careful when you come in or go out at night).
- the floor was sticky as well as the cooking utensils.
- the flush was not repaired.
- bathroom was not very convenient.
- think about buying your own mosquito repellent (there were mosquito-repellent candles but nothing to light them in the flat). We found a supermarket closeby: Conad. Cheap and convenient.
- water was cut at 10 o'clock on the day of our departure (our train was at 11 and we said we would leave by 10.30). So we couldn't clean up or go to the loo before leaving...
