We stayed 3 nights at Soggiorno Primavera and it was a small guest with few rooms. Looks bit old but nice and pleasant. We booked a room with a private bathroom. The room was mid sized, little bit old yet clean and nice with all the necessary amenities. Towels and blankets were provided and in-room heater was there. Hot water worked perfectly. Daily house keeping and cleaning were done. The owner Massimo and his wife were super friendly and helped us providing information about tourist attractions, markets and public transport. Massimo gave us a tourist map of the Florence city and recommended some restaurants for dine as well. Also he offered us an early check-in and the check-in process was quick and hassle free. He welcomed us warmly and treated as family members. The location was really convenient and easy access to public transport. The tram stop was next to the motel and the Firenze Santa Maria Novella station was close by and less than 10 minutes by walk if you travel by train. There were some restaurants near by and the motel was also equipped with a microwave oven, electric kettle and a refrigerator that can be used as wish. Tea and coffee packets were provided for self service. The overall stay was nice and pleasant. It was a great value for the money and can be recommended for several nights in Florence...
Read morevery friendly with clean and comfortable rooms. The location is run by a lady and her husband, who speak enough english to converse probably. A pleasant surprise was the room cleaning service as our group returned from the town. There is no kitchen, just a coffeemachine and a fridge. The toilet/bathroom is small but clean with warm water, just don't open the window too early or literally every neighbour can look inside. Mind you that the bathroom is shared and might get cramped if there are more people staying, which wasn't the case with me. The breakfast, if one can call it that, consists of bread and croissants in plastic wrappings, along with a juice for everyone, better don't count on it. Our room was pointed towards the street, with a little balcony, where the train and the tram exchanged their service, about every 5 minutes, in creating unpleasant noises in front of our window. All in all our stay was fine though and the people here are really nice and the price is fair with about 70 euros...

The walls are very thin and you can hear people coming and going all throughout the night - the latch on the front door is SO loud! No air conditioning and the towels were in a poor condition with rips etc. we had the 'ensuite' room which was basic and had glass blocks which went in to the other bathroom so the light could be seen through at night. The host was nice but only around at certain points in the day so if we had any questions we wouldn't have known where to go. The images show a welcome tray which wasn't provided and although it talks about being a b&b no breakfast was offered. To get to the hostel you had to walk down a very dodgy looking street out of the town which I wouldn't suggest for any single female travellers. For the price we paid we were expecting a little more but only stayed 2 nights so it wasn't...
