Pros: Overall, a good place to stay on a budget in Florence historical center. Great shower with lots of water pressure. Walkable to everything in a very central part of town. Groceries, restaurants, bars, sightseeing all within a few minutes walk of the apartment. Easy communication with the host and he allowed for an early check in which we appreciated after a long day of travel. Left a local guidebook with many recommendations nearby.
Cons: A musty smell as soon as you entered the apartment, which is probably common in the area. We did not use the hot tub because it had a tinge to it and didn’t feel inviting to us. Perhaps in the spring or fall when it wasn’t so barren in the yard and had a bit more privacy. The apartment was dark and felt a bit like a gradma’s basement. Cluttered and needs an update on the furnishings and interior. Could be a gem with a bit of work and updating.
All in all, we had a great time in Florence!
