It was lovely to be in the city center and within a 20 minute walk of all the major sites. The room itself was perfect for the two of us and felt like home quickly. It is also within a 1 minute walk from a grocery store. I would 10/10 recommend this location for staying in Florence.
Location is great. Near Ponte Vecchio and restaurants. No views from room though. Ignore previous reviews complaining about hot water or no A/C. Both worked great.

Great location but unfortunately top floor room with old barely functioning AC. Would be great anytime but summer. Location is perfect!

Good location…no water or AC!
This was our first bad experience during our two week stay in Italy. While the location is great, the AC barely worked so we had to open the windows to cool down at night - which meant both of us got covered in mosquito bites. There was absolutely NO water in morning and evening hours (sink or shower). I reported the issue to the host, they gave me a WhatsApp number to contact. I received no response to my messages even though the app showed the person read them. I see another review for this property mention that this is an ongoing issue. There was no warning about the water issue during check in and no apology for the inconvenience from the host. Would not stay here again!
We had a great time at the San Jacopo Top in Florence. It was located in a wonderful neighborhood with easy access to shops, restaurants, bars and more. Steps away from the Ponte Vecchio. We didn't have any issues accessing the property or getting where we needed to go.
Thank you for a lovely place for us to stay!

Hate to leave bad reviews but there was no water
It is a great location, but there are too many bad elements for me to recommend this place. There are ongoing water problems that are occurring on the street that we were not informed about in advance, and are not mentioned in the listing. We were surprised to discover that there was no water in the apartment when we arrived, so it was impossible to wash after our travel day. We mentioned it to the host and he told us to report it to the company handyman, and only then did we find out it was a recurring issue.
Additionally, the aircon doesn’t work well and woke us up in the middle of the night with incredibly loud banging so we just turned it off for the rest of the trip.
This was a perfect spot for our two nights in Florence. Check in was easy, the space was clean, and it was walking distance to most sights. The kitchen facilities are small, so just note that if you're wanting to cook much!
This property was amazing. Check in was easy. We were actually an hour late because of traffic and our host was very nice about that. The location is amazing. You are right at the base of the famous Florence bridge. If I ever lucky enough to get back to Florence I would stay here again.
Clean, comfy place. Absolutely tremendous location, such a great spot right in some of the most beautiful sections of the city, very convenient for any downtown attraction. AC was nice and refreshing, check-in was not too difficult, walking from the train station with roller luggage was hard but doable. Fantastic apartment, we had a great time.
This is a very nice, comfortable apartment in a great location for access all the sites of Florence.
The only downside is, the owner does not communicate through the VRBO platform and passes you to 3 or 4 other people that you have to text directly or text through another app. This was confusing and removes protection from the guest.
