Sonia was a very gracious host - was always available if needed during our 4 night stay. Her place is very central, literally next to the Ponte Vecchio. We stayed with may parents and 6 year old son, and there was plenty of room for all of us. Because there is a cafe right by the building, it does get fairly noisy at night. And the electricity short circuited once when we were there , though Sonia was able to promptly help us. Everything is within walking distance, and overall was a great stay!
