LA MAISON AT THE OLD BRIDGE

2 bedrooms, in-room safe, desk, iron/ironing board

About this condo rental

Located in Florence, this lovely condo for $461 per night is a fantastic option for your next break. The space has been completely renovated. I wanted it nice and warm, big enough for 2 couples to stay comfortable with a lot of space and the possibility to add 2 single beds either in the rooms or in the living room. There are 2 bedrooms and 2 complete bathrooms and also a third bathroom without shower. The kitchen is fully equipped and you'll find everything to cook .The table of the dining room can host up to 6 people. The view on the city is great and I love the huge cypress in front of one the window. To reach the Ponte vecchio, it'll take you 3 minutes walk and the duomo is 5 minutes. You are in the middle of everywhere. I have made every effort to provide you with comfort, nice details, a good energy, soft and relaxing colors...I have tried to make you feel at home. Just a good glass of red chianti wine, enjoy the city and make your stay memorable! This home is located on the second floor with no lift – the building is positioned half on a steep hill, and there are thirty-nine steps leading up to the front door, so it may not be suitable for those with reduced mobility Like most historic buildings in Florence, there is no elevator. the apartment is located on the second floor with 45 stairs . If this property is not available for the dates you need you can also check my other property #512300 and 1286132.

Four of us traveled for my 50th birthday and stayed a week in La Maison. Pros: Excellent location at Arno river with easy access to 3 pedestrian bridges Beautiful, quaint bedrooms Large stand-up showers Large TV (*we brought own cables to hook to our laptop) Kitchen stocked with dishes, cook ware Small washer with standing hangers to dry Ok-ish: Not a lot of space in which to put clothing and "live" for a few days. There were some hangers, tiny drawers. Bathroom window electric and slow Heat and airflow an issue and did not respond to thermostat. Each room had own AC/fan unit - however the fan units are disconnected during the colder season due apparently to a city ordinance. Thus despite a wall fan, we could not use it. There were no box fans in the unit. For airflow we could open the windows (which worked very well) yet it was a rainy season so limited how much we could actually open them. Not awesome: When we did ask about the heat and fans, Marie was responsive and came to the unit that next day to show us the equipment. Yet, the next day she sent an electrician over; we did not know the reason. They literally lockboxed in the thermostat so we could not access it. It was a bit confusing. At departure, I screwed up paying the city fee in cash; my fault. Paid online. Yet, Marie turned angry on text and accused us of breaking the bathroom window and leaving the unit in disrepair, both untrue. It was horrible and out of line. Take photos when you check out.

This apartment was in a great location. Parking was a challenge but the owner made some suggestions that worked out fine. There was a ton of space, 2 bedrooms, 2.5 baths, a full kitchen and a living room. Internet was fast. We really enjoyed this place and would absolutely stay here again. When we stayed here there was a lot of construction happening literally right outside the door. The entry hall and along the stairs to this place were covered in demolition dust and debris and the work started around 8am with jackhammers. We were out all day everyday so the noise didn't bother us.

Our host Marie was a Great Host. Her suggestions for places to have gelato, pastries and of course Florentine Steak were worth following her advice. The location is near the sights , but in a quiet neighborhood. She arranged a taxi when we had to say goodbye to Florence. Thanks Jim & D‘Anne

Great Experience

I can’t say enough good things about this property. Marie was wonderful to work with and thinks of everything. The property is truly a home away from home. It’s the perfect combination of rustic/charming yet updated where it’s important like the bathrooms. We stayed with our 3 teenage daughters and there was plenty of space to spread out. The location is central to everything you want to do and see, the neighborhood is safe and quiet and close to a grocery store, shopping and restaurants. Marie provides a binder with information on the area which is helpful. She also scheduled a taxi for us to get to the train station when we departed. We would not hesitate to stay here again.

Beautiful Property in Florence

My wife and 3 teenage children stayed in Marie's apartment in Florence for 2 nights and loved it. In fact, 2 nights wasn't enough for us but it was all we could manage. The apartment is beautifully decorated and is in a great location near the river. Marie was great to work with and the property is as advertised. She even went out of her way to arrange a taxi for us to the train station. This location is very close to the main bridge but on the less touristy side of the river. We would absolutely stay here again if we ever visit Florence in the future. Thanks Marie!

We loved staying here and loved the whole feeling and style and layout. You do have to walk up a bit of a hill and then up some stairs but we didn’t mind because of getting exercise. We would definitely stay here again!

Clean, comfortable, great location on the less busy and touristed side of the river. Remember there is a climb up the hill to get to the door, and some stairs, but this is very manageable for most people.

We were 4 adults and all found the apartment to be very spacious. 2 big bedrooms and 2 big bathrooms. Great common area. We had breakfast every day in the place and 2 dinners. The location is excellent- just across from Ponte Vecchio and all the crowds in Florence. We were able to walk everywhere. The beds were very comfy and enjoyed exploring the various neighborhoods on our side of the bridge as well as the side with the Uffuzi, etc. this is a walk up apartment which was not a problem for us but just wanted to mention it. There is also a washer and half bath in a small room. There was a damp smell that we noticed when we opened the door. We would recommend this place!

Marie met us on check-in and gave us lots of good info on the local area and traditions. The location was a 5 minute walk to Ponte Vecchio and a great base for exploring Firenze. The apartment was perfect for two couples. The kitchen is a bit small but who the hell goes to Firenze and cooks. Waaaaay to many awesome places to eat.

Charming apartment in a GREAT Florence location

Charming apartment in a GREAT Florence location

Marie has created a beautiful place to stay in Florence. The decor is contemporary, but respectful of era. The location, across the river from the Uffizi Gallery, is quiet and close enough to walk to almost any of Florence's incredible sites. There were four adults in our party and we were very comfortable in the apartment, having our own bedrooms and designated bathrooms. The living room is inviting and furnished well for people to be able to sit and read or converse. The kitchen is well-equipped,although we didn't attempt to cook anything other than our morning coffee and a light breakfast. The refrigerator was adequate for our needs for snacks and chilled white wine. Marie is a gracious host, responsive to requests, providing helpful information and assisting as needed. I'd love to return for another stay, should I come back to Florence. There's still much to see and do in this marvelous city and I've barely scratched the surface in my two visits so far!

Unusual at first but got to love it over stay

Unusual at first but got to love it over stay

I must admit we were a bit shocked at first sight - it's old, i mean really old (as the owner said the house was build in 1200s). But everything turned out to be perfect. AC worked great, showers fantastic, kitchen well stocked, location... well, almost perfect. By the end of our stay the only downside i can think of is parking. Normally i wouldn't visit Florence by car but we were traveling in Tuscany and Florence was one of our stops. So the south bank of Arno river is undrivable. With road works I really had a challenge getting to and fro parking garage and I am sure violated multiple road signs.

Just as advertised!

Just as advertised!

The description "Quiet, Charming and Central" , perfectly describes this apartment. The apartment was a welcome respite for us each evening after very long days of walking and touring. You are literally 5 minutes up hill from the Ponte Vecchio, but completely away from the noise and the mobs. Count on a 20-25 minute walk to the train station (without luggage) and twenty minutes from just about any place to eat and site to visit. Our host, Marie - we can't say anything more about how wonderful and helpful she was. We needed a package shipped to us, she made arrangements to collect it. We needed a prescription filled - she helped us out. Yes be prepared to climb some steps (everyone says 45 - I counted only 39) - we were a bunch of 60 pluser's and had no issue. The beds were comfortable, the bathrooms great, wi/fi flawless and the a/c worked as it should. We couldn't ask for more.
