Checkin was smooth even though our train got delayed. The apartment was easy to find, and just the right size for our party of 8 (including 2 kids). The host was very helpful and responded right away to our emails and questions.
We loved the location, it was easy to walk around (ok a long walk around) to the Basiclica di San Miniato and the Piazzale Michealangelo. The stores were a little too far for schlepping groceries, but it was easy to find a cab to bring you back.
We had to change our plans to go into the city because of the Marathon, but there were delightful restaurants and the Museo Galileo a short ride away.
All in, we had a wonderful time.
