We liked that it was close to Modena's center and it was very walkable.
The hotel is a little dated but for us wasn't a problem. We enjoyed the breakfast, the beds were comfortable and room/bathroom were very clean. We'll stay here again.

The bedroom looked old fashioned and could do with minor decorating. The shower was miniscule, but it was clean and comfortable. It was quiet at night and very convenient for visiting the old town. Breakfast was amazing, best hotel breakfast i have had for many years; huge choice of fruit juices and fresh orange juice to make yourself. Good choice of fresh fruit and meat and cheese. Machine coffee wasn’t great and no decaf. However good selection of teas.

Personale gentile e struttura molto pulita. Vicino al centro e alla zona del passeggio. Peccato per la moquette nelle camere, un po' retro'. Nel complesso sicuramente positivo, una buona scelta.
