The room was clean and the hotel was really nice. The location is really convenient to whatever you want to do in Bologna and steps from the train station.
They offer bikes but said you can't ride on the weekends. They offer a hot tub that you have to pay 30euros a person and it wasn't anything that a hotel wouldn't normally include. The staff was excellent.

Property and well-maintained older hotel close to Bologna Central Station. I arrived at 11pm and left at 11am so I didn´t have a chance to sample the breakfast, but my overnight experience was good!

Very friendly staff, clean and comfortable room. The location was very convenient to the train station and only about a 15 minute walk to the main palazzo. There is a market close by and several restaurants. However, like a lot of hotels, the walls are paper thin so any noise from other rooms is heard crystal clearly.

The hotel was small and friendly and close to transport links as well as being in walking distance from the town centre.
Despite the close proximity to these transport links it was a quiet and peaceful stay. breakfasts were delicious

I felt this was a perfectly adequate hotel and represented good value for the price paid. The location was good being near the station and for my next destination. The city centre was quite a long walk but nothing unmanageable and there's plenty to see on the way. I did not book breakfast I felt the price was a bit steep but changed my mind. I was glad I did. Whilst not exceptional the price compared favourably to a single dish or a pastry and juice in the more touristy areas, I do recommend this so you can spend more on a good lunch

Closer to centre than I thought as don’t usually stay on that side of railway. It was a blessing as there was roadworks outside one hotel and work on the towers at another.
Room nice but plain, bathroom very good. Quick check in and room available early. Staff very helpful.

Very eclectic decor and a perfect boutique size hotel. An easy walk to City Center, but the area around the hotel had coffee shops, wine bars, one of the best gelato shops in Bologna(Sfintina) and an outstanding restaurant next door.

Awesome hotel!
This was an awesome place in Bologna! The hotel was very Italian with a courtyard and villa feel to it. The staff members were so friendly. There are restaurants all around and it is close to the train and bus stations. I would stay here again.
