My daughter and I stayed in this apartment for 3 days in November. Sonia was very responsive, and greeted us with a bottle of wine, chocolates, maps and some very helpful suggestions for accessing neighborhood amenities. As others have noted it is a 15 minute walk to Ponte Vecchio and the Uffizi but the neighborhood has a lot to offer (the Church of Santa Maria del Carmine and the Brancacci Chapel are very close by). There are bars for morning coffee and pastries within a block, some excellant restaurants nearby and a grocery store a few blocks away (we ate at both Alla Vecchia Bettola and Trattoria dell'Orto and can recommend both). The apartment was roomy, well equipped and very comfortable. We would definitely recommend the apartment and look forward to returning ourselves.
