Room was very clean and well kept. Kitchen was locked all day so make sure you take a kettle. Didn’t see anyone having a breakfast while we were there. We got our own. The patio area let it down as was very tired and seating seen better days. Room could have done with a little fridge. Air conditioning was good. Near transport. Basic but good

I had a really wonderful stay! The location was nice and quiet. It was also a relatively short walk to the train station. The staff at the reception desk was super helpful and accommodating, I would definitely stay here again!

There is a tram station nearby, so it's very convenient. The water pressure in the shower was also great. Best of all, there is a delicious jarato restaurant nearby.

Easy to check in remotely. It was located next to a lot of restaurants and a nice park that we were able to walk to. Angelica, the property manager was so helpful! She provided me with great information on how to check in and use keys to get into the building.

Check in was remote, but easy. Room as clean and nice. Staff was very helpful and accommodating. The only issue was traffic noise as it is by a busy road, but it was quiet during sleeping hours.

Relatively clean/quiet venue but the check-in process was a bit confusing and only had staff there for a short part of the day.

We enjoyed our stay at Il Sorriso. The communication between Angelica and Antonella was magnificent. The house is so close to the metro line for T1 at the Strozzi Fallacci line. We took breakfast and it was worth it. Thank you for everything!

This property was nice and clean and has a beautiful common terrace to sit on. It is about 15 min on foot to the Academia and 5 more to the Duomo. About a block to the tram - 3 stops to the Santa Maria Novella train station (where we departed for Venicia). Lucia was wonderful and helped us with our tourist needs. Thank you for a great stay!

Good spot with a great terrace for trying out a bottle of Tuscan wine. Not in the city center but close enough to walk or use a short cab ride. It’s not fancy but we found it comfortable.
Verified review

6/10 Good

The place was ok, but the pictures made it look much nicer. It had limited AC in beastly hot weather, no refrigerator in the room for cold drinks, and the shower was tiny. Also, with the staff saying towels wouldn't be replaced daily, there should be adequate spots to hang them to dry. The staff, when there, were very pleasant.
Verified review

6/10 Good

The location is very convenient, walking distance to the Fortezza da Basso, the train station and fairly close to the city centre. The room was clean. The problems: I ordered the breakfast. This was too expensive (10€) for what it offers considering what you can get from nearby bakeries. More importantly, one of the marmalades had been opened and used. I did not get a satisfactory explanation from the staff or any compensation (i.e. I was asked to pay for this). Apparently I was the only one who was having breakfast that day, so the staff had no idea who ate from my breakfast tray - that's a serious concern regarding hygiene. There was no Internet service throughout my stay (6 nights, 6-12 July 2026). I was only told that there is a problem with the line in the whole neighbourhood. I find it extremely hard to believe that a whole neighbourhood was left without Internet for a whole week. Even if this is the case, I was never offered any alternative or compensation. I was on a business trip, so this was extremely disruptive. I had to buy a sim with unlimited data to be able to work, which of course added to the total cost.

Very convenient location

Conveniently located. About 18 minutes walk from the Firenze S.M.Nuvella train station, 15 minutes to the city center, and for us, about 15 minutes walk towards the pickup location for the Siena Chianti day tour. Angelica was very responsive and checked in with us for our arrival time. Clean room and our bed was made every day. If you are a light sleeper, it may be a bit noisy since it is right beside Via Giovanni Milton, but it should be okay since you will do a lot of walking and hiking during the day. Recommended.

It is clear the owners care about the space and had good communications before arrival. We were able to walk to our destinations. The rooms likely vary. We had the Tulip room and it was not well represented on the site. Its bathroom and shower were very small and the room could use a refresh. However, for the price and location, it was acceptable.
