Welcome to G-HOUSE in FLORENCE

Dive into the Middle Ages and feel the true spirit of Florence by staying in this unique residence filled with history, beauty and charm.
Located in Via dei Servi, just a few steps from Piazza Duomo G- house combines all the modern comforts with a touch of antiquity. Be pampered by a new 65 flat screen tv while walking on 500 years old terracotta floors.
The 3 spacious bedrooms, large living room, and frescoed terrace, can comfortably accomodate up to 6 people.
Sip a glass Chianti wine in front of our 22 feet tall lime stone fire place or dine in the frescoed terrace overlooking Brunelleschi's dome, but please remember to visit Florence as well: we know you won't ever want to leave the house... but we guarantee its worth it :)!

Great stay!

The property and location were great. We enjoyed Florence immensely and the location was close to restauarants, stores, and supermarkets. We could even walk from the train station (20 minute walk). I would not hesitate to stay here again.

Spacious and quaint apartment in great location!

Great location, lots of room and very comfortable beds! Everything was under 20 min walk. The patio was amazing and we made the most of it even with the colder weather. Had everything we needed! One downside was low water pressure in one bathroom and very tight space around the toilet in the other. But well worth it for the overall amazing space!

What a beauty!

What a fantastic apartment! Such a cool old building with modern amenities. Close to wonderful Florence attractions & restaurants. The only down side is no elevator but we got our steps in to help burn off all the gelato😂 The property manager met us at check in & hand is some great recommendations for places to eat!

Nice, convenient location, plenty of space, pretty views

Overall a good location that is close to many sites in Florence as well as a 15 min walk to the train station and light rail. Plenty of room for our group of 5 and the outdoor patio is nice with a views. Kitchen was well stocked; washer and dryer in unit are very helpful Very responsive on questions and check in. Would stay again next time in Florence.

Perfect location, beautiful apartment

Our family had a wonderful stay at this apartment in Florence. The three bedrooms and two bathrooms provided ample space for us to spread out, and we particularly enjoyed relaxing on the balcony with views of the city and Duomo. The convenient location near shops, groceries, pharmacies, and restaurants made it easy for us to access everything we wanted to see. The apartment was clean, well-maintained, and had everything we needed. Our family truly enjoyed our visit, and we appreciated the unique features and architecture of the apartment that made our stay memorable.

House was great location great walking distance for site seeing & shopping. When we booked this in our search w had specific search criteria as being handicap accessible which was one reason for choosing, unfortunately this location is not that be sure you are able to walk up & carry up luggage 78 steps to enter the apartment. This was a bit of a challenge for one of our guests but we made it work. The place was beautiful & host was very nice & responsive.

Location was everything!!

We loved this VRBO and highly recommend it! It has 3 bedrooms which was great, a large kitchen, a deck, 2 bathrooms and a washer and dryer which was super helpful. It was right next to the DUOMO which was fantastic and walking distance to everything. The showers were super small but I think that is a europe thing. Would definitely stay there again.

Top floor Florence

Large apartment with plenty of space. Lots of stairs up, but nice to be so close to the centre of the city. The bathrooms could use a little maintenance, and it would have bee nice to have starter coffees, soap, dishwasher tabs and laundry soap provided like other places, but overall very good.

Pluses and minuses

Communication was not all through VRBO. It made the process harder because we were sent multiple different WhatsApp phone numbers and made to communicate with different individuals via WhatsApp versus email versus VRBO.Upon arrival one of our party members got locked in a bathroom because there was no handle installed (it was later found in a drawer), the one shower was noted to have mold above it and be leaking, and the curtain in the master bedroom broke when the individual who was checking us in was showing us how to raise and lower the curtain. This was unfortunately not repaired during our stay and the sunrise, while beautiful, comes directly in that window.Additionally, the dryer did not work and there was a very heavy perfume smell that was difficult for some of our party. The stairs are as noted. The view is lovely and does put you in a very easy / accessible location.

Gorgeous, comfortable accommodations

Gaia and her property manager, Nicolo, were so helpful and kind! The apartment is in an amazing location - walking distance to all the markets, delicious restaurants and nightlife filled with talented musicians. The balcony is the perfect place to enjoy the cathedral bells and breathtaking views. My family and I had a lovely time and hope to return!

Lovely apartment in the heart Florence!

Our family of three adults stayed in this lovely apartment in November. It is centrally located, historic yet with modern amenities, clean, comfortable, and spacious. The property manager, Nicolo, met us on time and offered local recommendations for restaurants off the beaten path. We would definitely stay here again which is the best recommendation possible.

Lovely place in a great location!

Gaia’s place was perfect for our family vacation. Centrally located, but quiet at night. Nicolo, who checked us in, was very informative and friendly. We loved the balcony and the spacious living room. The three long flights of stairs sometimes felt daunting, but we burned off those gelatos climbing them! Beds were comfortable, bathrooms nice if somewhat small. Would definitely recommend Gaia’s place!

Expectations

After pouring over property reviews, I was expecting top notch. The location and layout were great. We had issues with checking in: untimely, hard to get responses, waited 2 hours, property manager didnt meet us & had cleaning staff try to explain property amid language issues. I appreciated the apology from homeowner who was helpful & tried to make things right. The 4th floor walkup was 76 steps which should be noted. The bathrooms were very narrow and short. If we were larger sized, one would be almost unusable. The dryer didnt work well- took multiple hours to dry very small load and had to hang clothes anyway. There was no communication about checkout expectations.

Florence stay

Location, location, location! We could not beat the location as it was just blocks away from the Duomo! However, there are several flights of stairs and no elevator so I would think twice if you have big luggage or have any difficulty with stair climbing. By the second day, we didn't even notice the stairs. Another issue was the mosquitoes. My husband got over 15 bites in one night- we stopped counting after 15. They were aggressive. We only had the door open twice to the balcony but we also didn't know this would be an issue. We tried burning citronella on the balcony but it didn't help. Maybe it is only a seasonal issue (we were there in Oct), but if you are prone to getting bitten, they will find you! As for the accommodations, they were good but had few issues. We didn't cook at all but we definitely used the coffee maker and refrigerator:) The primary bedroom had a great bed. The middle bedroom needs a new mattress as you can feel the springs. The third bedroom by the door was fine. The bathrooms were tight - to be expected in an apartment this old. However, we are a tall family (all 6 feet and taller) and we could barely fit in one of the showers so we had to all use the bathroom closer to the primary.bedroom.

Florence

The amenities as listed were not included such as the jacuzzi or grill. We lost power several times during our stay. We were told that we could not run more than a few things at the same time our the fuse would blow. The breaker is located at the floor level which is about 90 steps. The toilet seat was not attached and I spent time putting it back together. The other toilet is literally 6" from the shower and you can not use unless you sit sideways and put your legs into the shower to make room. The upper stair way light does not work, so it is very dark and we had to use our cell phone lights to climb the last flight of stairs after dark. There are 90 stairs, so please be aware that if you have luggage to carry, you will be exhausted by the time you get to the apartment. Even without luggage.

Great location, beware extra charges

The stay itself was great!! The location of the apartment is great. Restaurants and shops are just outside the door. The layout of the apartment was great for our family. We were traveling with my son and his wife and 2 kids, ages 7 and 10. Now for the not so good. When we arrived we found that we were at the wrong address. The street has 2 addresses with the same number, at opposite ends of the street. It was an issue for us because it was raining when we arrived and we stood out in the rain until we were finally met by Alessandra and escorted to the apartment. She showed us the apartment and then advised us that we owed a 100 euro fee and a tax of 99 Euros. I found the 100 fee in the description of the property. It was hidden in the fine print. The tax was not disclosed. I paid the fees and then I checked and found that there was no tax on the kids. We were pretty sure that there was no tax on the kids since we had just stayed in Rome and paid the tax there. Alessandra took the money anyway and left. She told me that the owner would be calling me to discuss this. I paid it just to avoid any problems. I am still waiting on the call. One of the bathrooms was very small. The shower is smaller than any shower I have ever seen and I have been on more than a few cruises. The washer/dryer does not dry. Not at all! The toilet was almost under the sink. Hard for an adult to use.
