Wonderful

Nice check-in and lovely view of the Arno through the only window that allows light!
Location great for access to town centre.
However, we have several criticisms of this relatively up-market apartment:
- overall a gloomy, low ceiling, musty, poorly ventilated apartment.
- no towels left out
- no mosquito screens on windows
- no cooking knives
- shower continuously drips
- other shower badly mildewed
- light fell off wall
- dishwasher buttons broken
- fridge door missing compartment
- single bed mattresses are pretty bad
Overall apartment was simply tired, dark and uninviting. Would not recommend.

"This property was very well equipped and in an excellent location - just 10 minutes walk to the centre of Florence. There was quite a bit of traffic noise from the street in the mid-evening, but manageable. Great views across the river from the bedroom. Giusi was very helpful, responsive to emails, and easy to deal with."

Nice View of the river
A little speed bump with miscommunication of arrival time. Very nice apartment in Florence. Would stay again.
The location was great but the actual apartment, not so great. Bathrooms were super small. Especially the main floor bathroom and it had a leak from the shower onto the bathroom floor, the shower itself was rusty.
The main floor bedroom had a musty smell. It wasn’t somewhere I would stay again.
We couldn’t be happier with this apartment. It was across the Arno with a great view of the city. The host was so responsive with all of our needs. The apartment was cozy and we felt at home with our 6 day stay.
Stairs to elevator with luggage an issue. Stirs to bedroom steep and dangerous. Layout odd. Bath up way small, shower horrible, no place to put toiletries, all around just bad. Ac didn’t work very well and it was hot. In general, Needs updating. Excellent location though.

Arno river view
The master bedroom was lovely best room in the apt. main floor very low ceilings and dark. A few small windows that overlooked a drab courtyard, beds on that floor very uncomfortable, need new mattresses. There are no screens on the windows, I could understand because the age of the bldg., left the window open at night to get air and got lots of mosquito bites. Need to make people aware. Kitchen needs more utensils, I like VRBO because I like having coffee and breakfast and a few other meals at the apt. It's not a convenient location but I knew that.

Location and View
A few quirks to be expected due to age of building, but a fair trade off for the great location, view and cost. A/C much appreciated during the first week. Loved looking out the bedroom window at the beautiful view!
We came to Florence for our daughter’s wedding (our first time in Italy). We had quite an exhausting day of travel, delays, broken luggage, and more. From the start communication with Giusi was excellent. She was so kind to let us check in a little early (we were so appreciative). Valentina waited for us at the apartment and was so patient as we got lost trying to find it (our fault for being so unfamiliar and intimidated by the driving). The apartment is in a beautiful building, it’s got all the amenities you could need. It is so close to everything. The upstairs bedroom and its view from the window is breathtaking. Both Valentina and Giusi continued to be available when we had any questions. When another family member lost her accommodations after her plane was delayed, Giusi was kind enough to understand our need to let the family member stay with us. Having such a great place to stay, so close to everything made our time in Florence so wonderful. We would absolutely come back. Grazie Giusi!!
The location of the property was perfect for walks in the area - very vibrant, great restaurants, fabulous churches and artwork. It was a wonderful stay!

This apartment was huge! We were so surprised when we walked in. Great communication and even a check in as I had messaged saying we were on the way and then got distracted by the pretty sights and didn't show up as quickly as expected lol. Very quick responses with any questions we had. And it was lovely to have two separate bathrooms with showers.
Overall this was a good place to stay in Santa Croce. The bedroom is the highlight of the apartment with a lovely view and the sounds of the Arno. You have to go up a narrow staircase to get to the bedroom. The kitchen, dining room, and living room are smaller than they appear in the photos with low ceilings and not a lot of natural light so I spent all my time in the bedroom. It's an easy walk to the other areas and this is quieter than other areas which I appreciated. Things like towels to dry dishes were missing and there was a supermarket close by but those small things would have been nice to have. The hosts were helpful in booking me a taxi to the airport. I would stay here again.
Die Wohnung ist gut eingerichtet und man erreicht viele Sehenswürdigkeiten von dort. Der Weg vom Bahnhof ist etwas weiter, aber nicht weiter schlimm, da man vieles auf dem Weg sehen kann.
Zum 38. Florenz Marathon haben wir ein sauberes Objekt in alten Mauern, unweit des Piazza della Signoria, gesucht und hier gefunden. Die Lage mit Blick auf den Arno und eben die Nähe zur Ponte Vecchio, Piazza della Signoria (Start des Marathons), zur Cattedrale di Santa Maria del Fiore, zum Palazzo Pitti, zum Palazzo Medici Riccardi usw. ist optimal.
Check-in-Vorgang war sehr gut organisiert. Vom Airport aus bestand bereit Kontakt zum betreuenden Personal.
Der Check-out-Vorgang ging ebenso sehr unkompliziert.
Our stay could not have been nicer and in an excellent location right on the Arno. We were just a few minutes walk to the Uffizi Gallery and the Piazza della Signoria. My friend and I always felt safe, even walking at midnight. Giusi's apartment was clean and comfortable, with plenty of room for the two of us. I would love to stay here again!
Très Bel appartement situé au cœur de fireenze, avec un plafond somptueux dans la chambre. On se croirait dans une maisonnette de poupées

Great Location
We loved the location and the history of this property. However, the check-in was really screwed up (we ended up with a very last minute person who got the time wrong and who didn't know much). It would have been nice to have been left some coffee! There was no sheet of basic information like where there might be a grocery store, good restaurants, transportation options, how to use some of the appliances, etc. We did enjoy being on the Arno River and you could easily walk to the center of Florence.
Un bel appartamento in un palazzo sul Lungarno della Zeccha Vecchia. La vista dalla camera principale è magnifica e l'appartamento è arredato con tutte le comodità.
The rental was spacious and clean. Easy to access and acquire taxis. We had some trouble getting the air conditioning to work but finally did get it functional. A operation reference card would be helpful , and the downstairs twin beds were not made with sheets, only a decorative spread on the beds. Otherwise was very nice.
The appartement is a gem. Its position in the proximity of Santa Croce is very convenient. The master bedroom is very beautiful and big, with a view over Arno. The owner is very helpful and responds quickly. We were there at the end of November and the heating worked very well. In sum, I would warmly recomend the appartment, especially for people who are searching for something special for a reasonable price.
