Guest Reviews for Ad Vivendum

This is a beautiful apartment, beautifully decorated, and very handily situated for central Florence. Would recommend to anyone, and would like to return.

The owners are extremely friendly and the apartment's history fascinating.

A couple of downsides:

The bath is irritating: there is no plug, so you have to use it as a shower.

Very small kitchen, somewhat eccentrically equipped -- don't try elaborate cooking.

The mattress on the main double bed has seen better days: is quite uncomfortable.




Four of us stayed comfortably here and especially enjoyed the well-furnished kitchen. Quiet location with supermarket nearby. A good value for the dollar.
