Located on a river, this apartment is in Historic Centre of Florence, a neighbourhood in Florence. Uffizi Gallery and Pitti Palace are cultural highlights, and some of the area's notable landmarks include Ponte Vecchio and Piazza della Signoria. Looking to enjoy an event or a game while in town? See what's happening at Nelson Mandela Forum or Coverciano. Take some time off to enjoy the winery tours and health/beauty spas in the area, or get some fresh air with adventures like ecotours nearby.
Amazing location for sightseeing and very clean. The noise from the street was a little loud but it dies down quickly at 2300 or so. Bed was very hard so if you prefer a soft bed, maybe look into a hotel that has USAmericans in mind.
The room was in the perfect location, right on the river. My wife and I would pick up dinner and wine, sit at the table with the terrace doors open and enjoying the river view, overlooking the city. It is decorated the way you would want while in Florence. My wife described it as an Italian Grandma’s home. My only negative, which is not going to affect most people is the place is not made for tall people, I hit my head a few times going through the doorways.

Great location, cool shabby chic vintage style.
Like others have said, bedding and towels clean but the apartment could use dusting, cleaning carpet/rugs and furniture.
Bathroom needs reshreshing, no longer looks like pictures. Soiled shower curtain, peeling wall paper, and mold around the tub.
This place could be awesome with consistent cleaning and maintenance.
The location of this property is breathtaking. One really feels like part of old medieval Florence here. The grocery steps from the front door is a massive plus. A five minute walk to the Uffizi! Would absolutely stay here again.
I had a great experience staying in this apartment! The location was perfect - I was able to walk on both sides of the Arno River with such ease. Hector, my host contact was fabulous! When I needed something or unsure about something, I would WhatsApp Hector and he would get back to me immediately. He was kind and understanding! The apartment itself was quite interesting! Small doorways (but that didn't bother me since I'm only 4'11") and one-step different levels for bathroom and kitchen - but once you have it down, it's a no-brainer! I loved waking up and opening the living/dining room window and shutters - letting the light in and looking at the Ponte Vecchio bridge and the other side of the Arno River, while I have my espresso! At night, you can hear the people singing, laughing, carrying on, and for me, it just added more character. The bed was good, but the pillows did not work for me - I'm a tempur-pedic kind of sleeper. As for cleanliness, I think a bit more use of a vacuum on the carpets/area rugs, as well as a little more dusting, is needed but I didn't mind because I took care of the apartment as if it were my own. Overall, I LOVED the apartment - it's very Florentine in decorations and leaves one to ask "what was it like here in the 1300 to 1600s?"! But if you are in to having luxury suites or more modern settings, this would not be the place for you. But for me, I can't wait to book the apartment again in the very near future! Thank you to my Hosts!
A little rustic but well equipped and great location. We were there in a heat wave and there was a small ac unit in the living room but not in the bedroom. However there was a sizable fan that worked great and kept us cool at night. 5 min walk to Uffizi and Pitti Palace and within 10-15 mins walk to other must sees
Very interesting decor! We enjoyed being right in the middle of town where we could walk to all the attractions and being on the Gold bridge and river was outstanding.
Probably the best accommodation I have ever stayed in. Actually on the Ponte Vecchio, the beautiful property is atmosperic and superbly decorated to match the age of the building. I wish I could live there forever
I was concerned that being on the Ponte Vecchio would be loud but it was amazingly quite. Place was clean and everything you needed was there. An amazing experience.
The apartment, its view, and its location are even better than described. I highly recommend this property to anyone who wants a place with a fantastic view of the river and the north side of it right in the center of Florence.
This property is in the center of everything. Literally on the Ponte Vecchio and just steps from the Pitti Palace and Ufizzi Gallery. We enjoyed the apartment. It is unique and charming in an old fashioned way.
All I can say is staying here is as surreal as it gets. We were literally in the Ponte Vecchio bridge. What a treat to be able to stay in such a historical location.
If you have the chance to stay here, take it. You're close to everything and the energy is fantastic. Enjoy!
