Great ammenities and location, welcoming host, confortable rooms.
Mosquitos, but this is not dependent on the host.

We were within 12 to 20 minutes of everything we wanted to see. The Academie, the Uffizzi, the Gardens, the Bridge, the train station, gelato.

Such a great location away from the crowds but easily walkable to the centre. The apartment was very well set up with excellent air conditioning- a must in the heat of Florence! So many very good local restaurants and bars nearby- we ate so well! The hosts are incredibly helpful - they really do try to help with information about attractions, restaurants, etc. They also helped with information regarding a hairdresser and podiatrist as well as booking us a taxi to the station!
Nothing - but those with mobility issues should know that the steps are steep. Didn’t worry us but could be difficult for some.

Comfort clean apartment with good facilities.. The apartment is in an old building and has a fascinating history which is on the walls.
Excellent hosts who are happy to share information so that you enjoy your stay in Florence
Not something I don't like but worth being aware you have 2 flights of steep narrow stairs to negotiate if you are carrying luggage

it was a complicated check in process
10.0
It was just beside the action but away from the throngs of tourists. It is surrounded by restaurants and stores and homes of local people. The beds were very comfy and the apartment was charming and it has an interesting history.
Our host was very helpful and we really enjoyed one of the restaurants (Sabatino) he recommended. It was very authentic and reasonably priced.
Check-in is difficult without a phone plan. We got data prior to coming there and messaged our host through booking.com. if you don’t have a phone plan will you need to get someone to call the host for you or leave someone at the door to wait for the buzzer while someone else goes down the street to get wifi from the pizza place. It’s doable.

Great location away from the tourist crowds but super convenient to all attractions.

The unit had everything we needed for the family. It was perfectly situated.
The only difficulty was getting in to the unit as we didnt have wifi which was needed to gain the initial access. So we had to leave one member of the family at the house while another went in search of a free wifi zone so that we could get inside.

Our host was so helpful before we arrived and during our stay recommended some great restaurants and places to visit. The location was ideal to the centre of Florence and also to some lovely local bars and restaurants. The apartment was great it had everything we could wish for during our stay. I would highly recommend staying here and would like to say a massive thank you to Ilaria for making our stay so memorable.

Excellent location, we walked everywhere from the apartment. Beds were very comfortable. Shower was nice and big.
There was a sulfur smell in the back bedroom at night but we couldn’t have the windows open because of mosquitoes. It wasn’t a big deal but there seems to be a ventilation issue somewhere.

location was close to everything.
too many narrow / steep steps up to the 2nd Floor.
I guess that’s how 500 year homes are.
9.0
Great location. Spacious unit. Great features available (kitchen items, towels, etc). Friendly staff. They responded immediately to all the questions.
It was not a big negative, but the stairs are very narrow to navigate with big luggage. I would stay here again regardless. Specially of it is for more than 2 nights.
10.0
Location! Extremely helpful and accommodating hosts. Quiet and comfortable apartment.
9.0
The appartment is located near Ponte Vecchio (10 minutes walking) and the station (15 minutes walking). It is a historical building with cozy interior. It was really clean and communication with the hosts (Ilaria and Alberto) was very helpful. In the local area are lots of great little bars and restaurants. Would definitely recommend and/ or go back to. Great stay!
Not really a downside if you are healthy, but the stairs are quite steep and narrow. Keep this in mind, especially when carrying heavy luggage.

Ilaria was a wonderful host! Wonderful recommendations for places to visit and restaurants!

Il Limone is set in a fantastic location, central to many attractions in Florence. It is across the river, and in a quieter residential area so was quiet. 15 minute walk to main train station with easy links to places such as Siena. Also short walk to Ufizzi Gallery and Pitti Palace. Hosts were very helpful giving us information about local restaurants and supermarkets. Nothing too much trouble. Very good air conditioning. Some very pleasant cafes nearby with locals extremely friendly.
We were travelling with our 21 year old son, so the second bed was a little tight for him. Not the fault of the apartment but were at the mercy of the people in the apartment above - mostly quiet but for a couple of nights was quite noisy.

We were lucky enough to go on a month long trip throughout Europe. We stayed in 7 places, and this was hands down our favorite. Ilaria was beyond helpful. She gave us great ideas of places to see and even helped us get a taxi. I can't say enough wonderful things about this place.

We enjoyed our stay in florence, with this place enabling us to be close to the town centre but not too close as to avoid the noise. The property was in a very old building, and you could see the hosts had made an effort to keep the original features of the apartment whilst adding modern touches like a washing machine and new bathroom and air conditioning.
We had quite a few mosquitos, the air conditioning wasnt very effective and there was work being done in the building which was very noisy but ofcourse the hosts couldnt stop that
10.0
very central.
Host was by far the best what I have ever seen. we have stayed in many apartments across Europe and I must say the host here was great to say the least.
clear communication from the first minute.
helpful in anyway.
thank you.

The location was brilliant, just what we wanted. Good walking distance from the city center but there are plenty of resturants and a great cocktail bar right on your doorstep. Our host is very communicative and helpful. It feels like the host really cares about you enjoying Florence.

Great location. Host were attentive to needs. Beautiful apartment. Testily decorated. Everything we needed was there and more.
Internet connection was slow and sometimes lost.

Lovely place with comfy beds
Has nothing to do with the apartment. It is the problems that you will face, if you travel by car to Florence. Parking is not cheap as there is no free parking (except on Sundays).
10.0
The location of the apartment is great for visiting the attractions of the city. The city center is within 10-15 minutes' walking distance. The railway and bus station is in 10-15 minutes. Very good restaurants are around. Two Conad supermarkets are in 5 minutes. The apartment is very interesting, settled in the very historical house of 14 century - we have been impressed by the interior. The apartment is very well furnished. The kitchen is well equipped and has everything for a short stay. The host is very friendly and helpful. She is a great fan of Florence - we followed her suggestions and enjoyed our visit very much ) Thanks again!

We absolutely loved everything! Florence is a beautiful city and this apartment added a special charm to the overall atmosphere. Located in the old part of the city it is close to all the main attractions. It was very easy to use the bus service as well, the bus station is about 20 meters away from the entry to the building. Number 6 bus takes you many places and it only costs 1.5 euros for each trip. The hosts were always in contact with us. I would stay there again in a heartbeat!! Thank you very much for hosting us, Antonio and Ilaria!!! Hugs from Canada:-)
The lack of an elevator, but you get use to it.
