Sara's place is a lovely spacious apartment in a very convenient area in San Niccolo. It's a 6 minute walk to Ponte Vecchio and 15-20 minutes from all the sights. The apartment is in a quiet neighborhood. Be aware though, it is on a top floor and requires a bit of stair climbing. Kitchen was well stocked with pots, pans, and utensils. Sara was a wonderful host and offered to pick my family up from the train station during a taxi strike. Highly recommend!
