What a great home away from home.
Bob W thinks through about little things from leaving out coffee and snack, tote bag for grocery shopping, yoga mats, to Polaroid camera for us to share our great stay with others. Great customer service and communication before and during the stay. The apartment is clean and well equipped. We also live the location. I would look for Bob W in different locations on our next vacation.

Perfect Florence Apartment
We absolutely LOVED our stay in Florence and will seek out other BOB W properties throughout the world. The property was perfectly located within walking distance of everything yet very wuiet. The amenities including power adapters, usb ports, and a washer/dryer were much appreciated. 6’3” 23 year old was happy on sofa pullout and the king bed was very comfy. Even though there is no front desk we felt very well taken care of. Appreciated leaving our luggage for a few hours after checkout while we did some last minute exploring. Zero complaints. Perfect.

The location of Bob’s Villa is excellent! It is close to all the major attractions, transportation and grocery store. Our daughters were extremely happy with the condition of the villa, the spacious rooms. The kitchen made our stay even more enjoyable as we’re able to purchase groceries and make snacks when needed. Having the washer dryer to do laundry in our apartment was amazing. Walking in the heat, you end up going through your clothes faster than expected! I would definitely recommend Bob’s Villa to anyone!!!

We had a wonderful time in Florence. Our apartment was clean and we had everything that we needed. It was just a short walk to where we wanted to go like the uffizi gallery, academia gallery and the ponte vecchio. The place might be a little harder to find because there is no big sign of the apartment/hotel. But just follow the instructions/directions that they will send on how to get there and you won’t have any problems.

The perfect location in the center of it all!
This is the perfect location in the center of all the action!
The premium room sleeps 4 comfortably as the apartment is very spacious, beautifully decorated and working AC!
Really felt comfortable and had all the amenities. Bob’s communication was perfect and he was always answering when needed.
The elevator is not always working so be ready to carry some luggage. Once checked out, they have a luggage room for you to keep your bags until you are ready to go!
Overall? Couldn’t be any better. Will be staying with Bob again!

Our stay at Bobs was amazing. It’s such a convenient location, you walk outside and everything is there. The room is extremely clean and updated. There is also a lift which is helpful for suitcases so you do not need to carry them up the stairs. Very safe entrance as well it is gated by two gates. The area all around is pretty safe.

The apartment was very clean, and close to many area points of interest. Great neighborhood with wonderful restaurants.
Unfortunately our apartment location/view was not as expected. No “balcony” or view, and was located facing a very busy main road, with very loud pedestrian and vehicle noise. We certainly can tolerate some noise, but trust us, this was extreme, and went on ALL night long.
We reached out Bob W to request a location switch but “nothing was available” but they did offer us “ear plugs”.
We would suggest making sure you request (and receive) a room in the back of the building.

Super new and clean, only challenge was the narrow elevator doors and 6th floor so risk someone leaving door open. But this is a historic building so an expected issue. Shower door small too. But all other super !!

This apartment was in the best location and felt spacious. It had many great and fun things going for it, such as size, amenities and outdoor space. Even a very cute lift system to get you to the top floor where our apartment was. We had booked the Studio and it was really well laid out. The apartment however was a little run down and with basic maintenance issues which could have been easily resolved with some TLC. These were reported to BobW and while they remained unresolved in our short stay our issues were acknowledged quickly and a partial refund given. BobW are trying to do things differently and for the most part achieving this. We enjoyed our stay.
