Sara's appartment is the very super-best place in terms of location and conveniency. It is a place that produces a very home sweet home feeling =) which was very attractive to us and appreciated!
Uffizi and Piazza della Signoria, cool trattorias nearby, Ponte Vecchio, San Lorenzo, Santa Maria del Fiore, Palazzo Pitti and other worth to see places very close to the appartment.
We parked our car on a free parking lot in Piazzale Michelangelo - great view over Firenze! - and it took us about half an hour to get to the appartment. We were walking and staring at all the marvelous sites while walking down the Arno river. Thank you Sara for making Firenze so home to us! =)
