Great location, friendly staff AMAZING breakfast. Blocks from both the city center and the train station. There's a grocery store around the corner. The hotel is spacious, comfortable and well maintained. The only issue we reported was mold in the bathtub. This will be my hotel to go in Bologna. I strongly recommend it for a comfortable stay in Bologna.

We had a really nice, clean and relatively big room (also quiet one like we requested, grazie) and the hotel was carefully maintained. I saw some reviews saying that the hotel “looks a bit tired” and yes, it is not newly renovated but it just added some charm. The location was perfect and the staff was friendly. I recommend!

Pleasant hotel in a convenient location between train station and city centre. Bedroom was a little dated with worn carpet. Breakfast was chaotic with only 2 coffee/tea machines which resulted in queues for a hot drink.
