Mamta was a great co-host. She allowed us to check in early and walked us around the apartment. She also explained how to get to the train station.
Everything was a short walk from the apartment. We were able to see Donatello's David. As we were walking a short distance to Ponte Vecchio we came across the Uffizi Gallery and saw many amazing sculptures. It was accidental because the Uffizi is closed on Mondays. But that just goes to tell how closely located these sites are to each other.
We really wish we had been able to spend more time in Florence thanks to having such great hosts and an amazing place to stay.
