Oltrarno 1881 Apartments

My security deposit of €200 was kept due to a plumbing issue that had absolutely nothing to do with me. After this happened, I looked at other reviews and discovered this appears to be a recurring issue—many guests report losing their security deposit with little to no explanation. It seems like a shady business practice, and I would strongly advise against booking with Oltrarno I88I Apartments unless you’re okay with potentially forfeiting €200 for arbitrary reasons. Beyond that, the apartment itself was not enjoyable. The bed was extremely uncomfortable and hard, as were the pillows. It was difficult to get a good night's sleep due to both the poor bedding and the excessive street noise at night, which couldn't be blocked out. Additionally, the apartment has a large, narrow internal staircase that felt quite unsafe and inconvenient—definitely not ideal if you have luggage or mobility issues. There are plenty of better, more transparent options in Florence. I’d recommend staying elsewhere.

An incredible experience of simple but excellent detail and sumptuous furnishing in this wonderful apartment. Very comfortable for 4 adults . We were 3 . We took the secret garden apartment for a 5 day visit . It was beyond our own expectations having read the reviews - It is run by the Hotel but it’s an independent building away from the Hotel . The hotel are available for any assistance and we found them extremely helpful . Every day we were overjoyed with the style and comfort of this beautiful apartment furnished in the best and most comfortable furnishings- this is a smart apartment- learn how to use the IT and you are off to a great stay . Wifi - Bluetooth- TV and full smart features. Instructions on all appliances on the tablet - go look about and you will find your directions and answers to your questions- if not call the hotel who were extremely helpful . Take cloths for the kitchen - and cleaners for the WC . Nothing apart from towels are provided for the bathrooms. Dishwasher - washer dryer and heated towel rails all excellent. Only negative is that there is no where in the bathrooms to place your toiletries- as it’s no minimal in design - however we got over it as we are aesthetically obsessed- well I am 😌. If you are used to self catering this is a class of its own . And great value in one of the best and coolest parts of town in the heart of San Lorenzo- 15 mins stroll to the Ponte Vecchio. We would return without question. It was like staying in a designer show flat and we loved every minute. Enjoy .

Everything was good at the beginning. Place was good, location was good. Then, some creatures came in to the house from bath. We try to cover for first two days but their numbers increased day by day. You need to think twice before you stay in this house
