The management is excellent. Very helpful to helped us reserved museum time and taxi. Good communication. Big space to live, washroom is clean and hot water for shower is good enough.

The communication we had with the owner was some of the best we have had in decades of renting vacation apartments. The apartment was larger than we had expected and everything was comfortable. The kitchen was well stocked with everything we needed to prepare occasional meals - although with all the nice restaurants in the very close vicinity, not done as often as planned. The only caveat - and it is clearly stated in the listing - are the stairs. We are seniors and although we didn't have too much trouble, we did limit our comings and goings. I would still stay in this lovely apartment again for as long as I can manage the stairs.

Awesome location. Shops and restaurants surround the location and only 1.5 blocks from Duomo Square. Owner and manager were very proactive. It does get loud some nights. It is just a half block from a bar that is open very late and the noise bounces off all the stone and masonry down the street. Lots of good instructions on how to use all the appliances. Main problem problem with flat is that the twin beds have week springs such that you are prone to roll to one side or the other. And "first floor" is not ground floor in Florence. Roughly two flights of stairs to the flat.

This was the most beautiful VRbO property we have ever stayed in. It was magical! The decor and ambiance set the mood for the beautiful city of Florence. It was old world but had modern amenities. It was huge and very reasonably priced for the size and area of town. We could walk anywhere within 5 to 10 minutes, Even though it was in the middle of the city, the windows shut very tightly and blocked out all of the noise. We absolutely loved staying here and will hopefully stay again.

Florence was unusually crowded for October, but we had a couple of things going for us that made it much easier to tolerate the crowds. First was a lot of advance planning and ordering tickets to the most popular sites scheduled for early morning. Second was always knowing we had Convivio Apartment to come home to whenever we needed a break. With such an amazingly convenient location, we were seldom more than 10-15 minutes away from our "home". Once there, in the ancient but comfortable and spacious rooms, we still felt immersed in the city. We were very grateful to Janine for sharing the apartment where she lives for part of the year.

This property is right in middle of everything! You can walk to everywhere and I’m over 65. Fruit stand downstairs wonderful! Owner unbelieveablely responsive. Here is a tip if you rent this place. GPS sketchy in Florence. If you rent this place and see horse’s ass in Senior plaza, you are on right street. Go see Galileo museum. Better than uffize. Then again I am an engineer.
