I can't imagine a more perfect place from which to explore this incredible city. Not only are the important sites nearby, the walk itself is delightful. The apartment is absolutely wonderful -- no steps to climb, very cozy and a comfortable bed. Marta communicated very promptly and went out of her way to help us. I would encourage anyone to plan their trip to Tuscany around the dates this lovely apartment might happen to be available. It is popular for a reason!
