Good with Issues
Good with Issues - Our group of six (two couples, two singles) had a decent stay in Florence during Christmas/NewYear 2023/24. The apartment was adequate. Here are the pros and cons:
Pros:
Spacious unit including two decent size bedrooms and one smaller one
The host was very responsive and flexible with check-in.
Good kitchen with enough amenities to cook with but some broken appliances
Excellent four burner electric stove
There was some left over spices and food which helped meal preparations
New dishwasher that cleans really well
The host had added a small Christmas tree and left some tourist info
The unit is on the 3rd floor and there is a small
elevator that works really well
Cons:
The apartment was advertised as a four bedroom but only has three bedrooms - one bedroom has a small pullout couch which blocks the door to the other bed once setup.
There are no written instructions about how to use the apartment (thermostat, garbage, recycling etc) and the instructions given by the host were minimal. The thermostat for the whole apartment is located in the master bedroom and there are no instructions so we were cold for a few days until we sorted it out then could only change the temperature for short durations.
There was only one key for the apartment making coordinating a large group challenging and no lock box for the key. We did learn about a lock box on the final day as the host asked us to put the key in it when departing.
Furniture is dated and junky: dini
