It’s a good place to stay in if you’re visiting the “Fiera” area of Bologna. Rooms are modern, clean, and the employees are very nice and helpful. However, if you’re visiting the city centre, it is not the best option, as it is quite far. Public transportation options are quite limited and the taxi is expensive.

Stayed here for an overnight on our way through the area. Easy to get to from Autostrada. We ate dinner here because we didn't want to have to go in search of a restaurant after the day's long drive. It was excellent, especially the Bolognese style lasagna. Great breakfast buffet with lots of fresh food choices.

Big comfortable room. Comfortable bed. The only issue was that the window will not open and the air in the room it's really dry, which made hay fever worst.
