17/07/2017 - Perfect Off Centre Location

TripAdvisorTripAdvisorTripAdvisorTripAdvisorTripAdvisor

We arrived midday after taking the 'long' way round from the train station (it is only a 20 minute walk directly) to be greeted jovially by the rep who did carry our suitcase up the (57) steps to the apartment - yes you will burn off the pasta but it's worth it!! A perfect apartment with everything as described and the square below offers a welcome place in the evening if you want to sit and take in the atmosphere with a glass in your hand from the tiny corner bar or an ice cream from one of the best renouned gelato bars. The restaurant up the same street serves the most delicious food and is really worth a visit. The apartment is perfectly placed and easy walking distance for all the main tourist attractions. I would highly recommend the open top bus tour (both routes, particularly the route out of town - you won't be disappointed)! There is only air conditioning in one bedroom so it does get very warm although there are fans which were a welcome relief. The apartment is clean and well provided with all the essentials Highly recommended - great value


04/06/2017 - Home away from home

TripAdvisorTripAdvisorTripAdvisorTripAdvisorTripAdvisor

Piazza della Passera 2 bedroom apartment was steps away from Pont Vechio with coffee, pizza, gelato and a fantastic restaurant just outside the door. The kitchen is well stocked, big bathroom, strong wifi and good sized bedrooms. This apartment is on the 3rd floor, so be aware that you have to get your luggage up 57 steps! Apartments Florence was great to deal with, very customer focused and helpful. If renting here, note that the Piazza is directly outside the apartment and very active (and loud) until late at night. We brought ear plugs, so it didn't disturb our sleep. Overall, we were very happy with our cozy little apartment in Florence.

Excellent location! All Florence marvels are just few minutes away. The value offered and the comfort of the apartment was most welcomed. Will stay again during our next visit to Florence.


17/09/2015 - My dream apartment

TripAdvisorTripAdvisorTripAdvisorTripAdvisorTripAdvisor

This apartment was so beautiful! Every room had air conditioning and comfy beds for sleeping. I traveled with three of my best friends and we did not want to leave. I highly recommend this apartment and hope to stay in this lovely place again when I return to Florence.


13/06/2015 - Close to everything - great internet

TripAdvisorTripAdvisorTripAdvisorTripAdvisorTripAdvisor

The location was great - just south of the river so perhaps a little less busy and yet a short walk to everything. Service was great at check in as well as when I needed to order a cab (I didn't have a phone) - was able to send an email to the concierge who made arrangements for my pick-up. Internet connection was great so we were able to research our activities while we were there. The Piazza below was a 'happening spot' which was great during the day and the early evening but not so great in the middle of the night. Lots of stairs - great workout but maybe not for everyone.
