We have stayed at dozens of Airbnbs and were really excited about this one but unfortunately it wasn’t what we expected. The photos make it look like a gorgeous, remodeled apartment but it turned out to be quite worn down and not well maintained. To be as fair as possible I have included both pros and cons below:
Pros:
- This apartment is within walking distance to so many amazing places including the Uffizi, the Duomo, restaurants and shops
- It’s spacious which was nice for our group that had four adults and one toddler
- There was a stove, oven and microwave so we were able to cook meals at home
- The dining room was a great place to hangout and eat together
- The water pressure was strong in both bathrooms
- There was a washing machine so we were able to wash our clothes
Cons:
- There was paint chipping from the walls and overall the walls were pretty beat up
- Some of the chairs, a couch, and the main lamp had some major issues (no screws, no cushion filling, etc).
- One bathroom vanity was worn from water damage
- There was a cutting board and bowl in the kitchen with black mold growing on them
- We were charged for a high chair (which was broken) and crib for our baby which we weren’t expecting
- We arrived two hours after check in and the apartment was still being cleaned
This Airbnb definitely has potential and I hope the owners/property management company make the improvements that it desperately needs.
