My family and I loved staying at Sonia's place. She was there when we arrived by bus and even had some breakfast items and a bottle of wine. We ate all our meals outside in the patio. Sonia took the time to explain the Florence sites and left a map with directions to grocery stores, restaurants etc. Sonia was very friendly, helpful and always quick with answering any questions I sent her way. The apartment was a nice oasis from busy Florence!
