Surrounding area:
The holiday apartment is located in an old city district with many small shops, the grocery store and the typical San Lorenzo market and different book shops. In 100 meters you will find the Via Tornabuoni with elegant, international companies. Also, the cathedral and the Uffi are not far away. For dinner, I recommend: 'Via cennini', 100 m from the house. Unforgettable and fair in price. For an excellent lunch and a Ricco elegant, I recommend in the middle of the city (street Portarossa 63r.), self service starting at € 9.
