I liked that is was right on the river and across from a tall square tower, so it was easy for us to find. Also was close to the historic area.

Hotel is actually in a great area and everything you want to see in Florence is an easy walk to get to. Hotel customer service was amazing and everyone was very helpful. Our room was smaller, but that’s all we needed. If you fancy a larger shower, be sure to book the larger room. Overall, very happy with our experience there.

We were located along the Lungarno and had lovely views from our window. Very safe and beautiful neighborhood. Very convenient location near city center. We walked to most of the sites or able to take a busy easily. The staff were so kind and hospitable. Breakfast fare excellent! For our first trip to Italy has left lasting impression because of the Sonetto.

Great place and location. The staff is very nice and respond quickly. Overall the room is amazing and zo is the view of the river. The only issue is that you can hear the person in the room next to you as if they are in the room with you. The walls are way too thin. Luckily everyone there was very quiet but it still felt a little weird at times hearing literally everything someone else was doing

A pretty guest house with lots of beautifying elements, but missing a few key items. No AC, so open the windows, but no screens, so the mosquitos bite. Very poor WiFi. Weak telephone signal. Our shower wouldn’t drain on first night, but we mentioned that and was improved next day, though still backed up a bit. Staff are young and friendly and try their best to be helpful. Clean and comfortable beds. Big TV with lots of Italian channels plus a few good U.S. streaming service for free. If WiFi was great and screens on windows, or working AC, would book again. Oh - and communication by telephone with hotel in advance of trip was impossible. Sondar needs to unify online telephone numbers and have a working front desk phone that dependably is answered or has an answering machine with English greeting. Very good in baggage storage and advice on finding local stores.

Not clean. There were flees in the room and bit me. Hotel staff refuse to admit it's hotel's problem and didn't refund my money. And wifi signal in ground floor room is terrible, I need to stand close to the door to get internet signals. Terrbile experience ever!!! 不要住这里,房间不干净,网络信号差,工作人员态度很差。

Needs updating and new bedding
Hotel well located, friendly staff. The room? Dated and a little dark... Bedding terrible, uncomfortable mattress, awful pillows. Tiny bathroom with shower that leaked all over floor. Carpet on floor of hotel room- didn’t seem quite clean... Walls super thin, we could hear someone snoring in the room next to us. Not a pleasant experience. I would book elsewhere next time

Great location, shabby hotel
The hosts of the hotel were very helpful and lovely. The location was excellent and the breakfast spread was quite nice as well. Unfortunately the room itself was really outdated, uncomfortable and made me question the hotel's 3 stars to the point where we didn't want to go back to the room during the day. I would say it's a 2 star hotel although the hosts and location make it a nice stay.
