Florence Ariento Romantic Apartment

It is very important to check in online. I never received the email to do so and was left waiting outside the apartment, with no way to contact the property, as the listed phone number didn’t work. Thankfully, the leather shop below the apartment had two really friendly guys that contacted the owner. This was the only bad experience. Otherwise, the apartment is really clean and spacious, probably too much for one person. The location is great, within walking distance to most major attractions, restaurants, cafes, and markets. The shower doesn’t leave much room to move around, but a minor inconvenience. This would be a great stay for a family or small group, but as stated before, not ideal for solo travelers. And I repeat, make sure you check in online! If, like me, you don’t receive the email, talk to the guys of De Nicola leather shop, they can help and have amazing leather jackets, too!

While the apartment offered convenience of being in a great walkable neighborhood close to attractions and dining , it was really lacking. It was passably clean. It lacked good bedding, extra blankets etc Only two towels for the whole week . No washcloths or hand towels. Hot water did not work for a day and a half . Terrible timing , as we had just biked all day and upon return discovered only cold water . Not enough toilet paper- had to buy some. Not enough dish or hand soap , ran out of dish soap and refused to buy that too. Stove top difficult to use and burners were precarious , small pot , tipped if not perfectly balanced. Dark- not enough lighting in the kitchen. Had to use my phone to see what I was cooking . Tv was old and out dated - WiFi was spotty . Would not recommend , unless all the above was attended to. Could be a wonderful spot. Update things and provide better amenities could be a great spot.

Charming apartment near mercato centrale Wonderful little apartment right across the street from Mercato Centrale. The apartment was such a nice respite after a day of sight seeing. We enjoyed going across the street for breakfast every morning and shooting and cooking dinner most night in the apartment. Cozy, comfortable and affordable!

Lovely apartment in a convenient location. Quiet at night.
