Casetta Rosina

Good

  : The location could not be better. It is a mediaeval building and it was intriguing to live in such quarters
  : Unfortunately there was a strong smell from the kitchen sink drain throughout the visit. The first time we used the bath mat, the floor left it very dirty. Unlike other such accommodation, there was almost no information about the area, in this case Florence. The staircase to the flat is narrow, winding and steep and there would be substantial problems for older and/or less able visitors

  : Phone call to number provided main door clicked open then code on keypad a voila were in. The staircase leading up to the apartment is reasonable steep. I have problems with stairs.. both directions, initially it was a challenge, but I managed, so dont let this stop you from considering this apartment.
  : The loud music from neighbours in the evenings

  : The apartment is located right in the heart of everything. Short walk to Santa Maria Novella station and tram to airport.
  : Firstly the stairs if you have big suitcases is a killer. Apartment is on second floor and stairs are steep and narrow. Apartment is very noisey from kitchen downstairs.

Poor

  : The apartment is centrally located, near mercato. Near restaurants. It is near the train station. a few minutes walk to Duomo
  : The place reeks of sewage specially when it rains. We left one day early as all our clothes and stuff smells of sewage and cannot sleep because of the smell. I had to wash all our clothes after leaving as the smell lingered. Also the stairs is hard to use even though I only have carry on. Washing machine doesnt have a dryer. air dried clothes smelled so bad like sewage.

Pleasant

  : It was centrally located and easy to reach various historic placesKitchen was adequate and equipped. Good to prepare one's mealsAir conditioning was a blessing. Gave us a good night sleep.
  : We are elderly and have difficulties in climbing staircases. The staircase was narrow and had high steps. Carrying a huge suitcase on the staircase, nearly killed us. A huge challenge for people with disabilities and are elderly.The term sheet said toiletries will be provided but we found none. Called the owner who said they do not provide toiletries. She promised to get back to us in 30 minutes but did not have courtesy to call us back. we sent her the term sheet by email which was never acknowledged or replied to.The term sheet said the apartment had a city view. We were looking out into a very narrow street with shops which were very noisy..

  : The location was amazing, right in the city centre. It was easy to get into the apartment as we were sent an access code, and then collected physical keys once we entered the building. The apartment was very comfortable and had everything we could need, including cooking facilities. The hosts were communicative, letting us know when the septic tank was going to be emptied, making us unable to use the water
  : There was a slight damp smell in the kitchen/ lounge quite frequently.

Poor

  : Straightforward check-in process.
  : There was a terrible smell from the drainage, the air was overall very damp and foul. It was not possible to let a lot fresh air inside because of the surrounding ventilation from the restaurants. The place did not feel safe at all (every door in the house was damaged because of an obvious breaking and entering). It would be worth to mention in advance, that the entrance and the stairs are extremely narrow (entrance not even 50 cm wide). Very loud neighbours - vacuum cleaning at 2:00 in the morning and loud music. Everything was more than audible because of the very thin walls. In the end, the photos are kind of misleading, taken with perfect artificial light, the reality hits different. Had we been charged half the amount, we would have considered it acceptable and appropriate deal for the city centre. Overall, first disappointment after about 10 years of using Booking.

Very Good

  : The location was perfect and the check-in was really easy. There was a very handing luggage storage place nearby. Although the flat is small, it doesn't feel cramped. We'd book again!
  : The bath in the bedroom was a bit baffling! There was a little noise from the neightbours. We were only told that we needed to leave city tax in cash in the check out instructions on the morning of the last day, which led to a bit of a panic on our last morning.
