Pleasant and comfortable, Great value for money
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 without any doubt.

Staying at Soggiorno Primavera in Firenze.
Nowhere in Italy you will find a friendlier and more helpful host than Signore Massimo, and there is no more convenient place that Soggiorno Primavera. This B&B is within walking distance of everything. However, the place is in need of some serious refurb.

The location of the hotel is very good. Very close to the train station, and a 10 minute walk from the main sights of Florence. The room we stayed in was very clean and big. It was equipped with the essentials such as a towel and blankets. It had many fans to compensate for lack of AC, which was totally fine. Had to fight off a few mosquitoes, but nothing serious. Owner was very friendly, and helped us with any questions we had about Florence. Overall a good stay for a budget traveler.

Don’t book here
We had a terrible experience at this accommodation, the owner was rude and turned us away w/o consideration eventhough we were from foreign country. We reached out to EXPEDIA for help but they let us down too, we had to look for our place to stay for that night. I will never book from expedia anymore.

Dear Dean I would like to thank you anyway for this review. Our mutual knowledge was not pleasant. you arrived a lot outside our check in time without notifying. But I understand this; it is possible to have trouble during the travel and not to have the possibility to communicate. So no problem about this for me. But when I asked you to pay your bill you have taken a very negative and disgruntled attitude. You said that you already paied online. I tried to explaine you for 40 minutes you didn't paied because your room room wasn't a prepaied rate. I asked you to show me a receipt but you didn't (of course because you had not paid anything online). We called togheter expedia.com and they tried to explaine you the same that I said you but you have continued to not trust me and expedia. You said me that you want to cancel your reservation for the next day but you want to keep the reservation for the first night. But this was a lack of respect for me and my job and for the time out of the check in time that I was there to wait for you. So I said you that you can cancel the entire reservation without penalty. I never charge nothing on your card for this late cancellation. I like to have people who are happy and happy to sleep in my B & B. I love my job and I love to welcome people who come from all over the world to visit my city. Maybe you had trouble to find a place that night because Florence was very full and I am sorry for this, but I could not do otherwise because you were really unpleasant and you have not had respect for my work. But I want to wish you all the best and I send you a hug from Florence.

Hallo. We are sorry for this review. There was work on the new tramway line and maybe they were noisy. Our breakfast is a italian breakfast with packaged products however of excellent quality. This is the only breakfast we can offer our guests by law. But we will take your opinion into consideration and we will try to improve. A big hug from Florence.

Pleasant budget place in Florence - 15 mins walk from train station which is handy and that area is also the start of the historic part of Florence - (so a further 10 mins or so to Duomo) - so not staying in the historic centre but that keeps the price down too. About 30 minutes walk to Uffizi. All safe to walk later at night which is handy too. Massimo who owns Soggiorno Primavera is a delight and very helpful and makes sure the place is run well. Be aware that he doesn't live there and reception has limited hours - but he is very contactable on What's app etc.

Nice B&B close to SMN
The B&B is conveniently situated near SMN station (around 5-10 mins walk). The host Massimo was very helpful and nice. He helped us with directions in the city and also kindly helped us print our ticket. He also prepared refreshments in the room everyday. Bathrooms and toilets were clean. We are really satisfied with our stay :) Neighbourhood is quite quiet as well!

I didn't realize when I made the reservation that the room did not have its own bathroom, but it really wasn't a problem. The bathroom and room were very clean. The proximity to the train station was great (we didn't have to use a taxi). But best of all, the owner (?) Massimo was so friendly and helpful that he made the stay very pleasant.

Great little room in Florence!!
I booked this place based on the reviews, then received a lovely personal email from Massimo, following up. I was a little nervous when we got there, as this place seemed more like a hostel than a bnb, and the room and neighborhood on first glance - seemed a little "iffy," but now I understand why people love to stay here. Massimo is AMAZING. This was my favorite place I stayed in Italy. He is friendly, personable, funny, warm, easy to deal with, and made our overnight stay just perfect, even bringing us breakfast to our room (we got the room with the private bath, btw). I felt perfectly safe. The room was warm, the wifi worked great, and the bed was super-comfy. Anything we needed, we had or just needed to ask. He let us keep our bags there all day after we checked out, so we didn't have to carry them around Florence (we weren't leaving 'til the evening). Highly recommended. Thanks, Massimo! I hope we'll see you again someday!

It is a B&B and hence cannot be compared to hotel services. But the owner was helpful and available. Location is 10 mins walk from the central place and all attractions.

Bathrooms are shared, clean and many

Florence room close to station & di Bassi fortress
Massimo is very helpful and gentle. He even arranged for a breakfast to be left in the evening as I had to leave early in the morning. Could not find a better host. There was a bit of traffic and train noise in the very large room that looked onto the road (where I stayed the first night), but the second and third nights I was in an inner room with a private bathroom, where it was quieter. Room sizes are very large.

Close to train station, good wifi access. Owner is extremely helpful and accommodating. He provides very good directions and town recommendations. Small bed needs some work for comfort. A fan in the room would be helpful since there is no air conditioner.

Dear Guest, thanks for your review, as written in Expedia we have not air conditional, but on the month of May you don't need of fan, because in Italy there are 23-25 degrees, about the bed, you booked the double room for 1 night and after you asked us one more bed. I told you it is possible because was only 1 night, this bed is a rollway bed. Thanks Massimo

Nearby firenze train station
Massmimo and Marrissa possesses great smiles. Positively, there is a microwave, so we got some pasta from nearby conad supermarket. This saves us some pennies. The ensuite is big by italian standard. Set back is only the tv is too small. The occupants upstairs made too much noise at 4am, dragging chairs etc. But it is not owned by this B&B, so I see no point feedback to Massimo, as little he can do too.

Clean and friendly hotel close to train station
We were after a place to stay in Florence for one night while transiting through to elsewhere by train. Proximity to the train station was important for us so that is why we chose this hotel. We were pleasantly surprised. The owner was very friendly and helpful, the room was large and spacious, the bathrooms (although shared) were very clean and always available. Although close to the train station, it is also a very easy walk to the main sites of Florence, and we were extremely happy with our stay.

There are no words to describe how amazing Massimo was.

All the time he was alone since his wife was away on a visit but despite all that he did a perfect job running the place.

Friendly hotel close to central station
I had a quick visit to Florence and needed somewhere central to stay overnight. This is a small, friendly, family run hotel. The owner, a husband and wife are really helpful and pleasant people. they gave me advice on where to eat and were very happy to look after my bags after i checked out so I could spend and hour or 2 walking around. I would definitely stay again.
