A great stay
It was a fantastic place to stay, we thoroughly enjoyed it and undoubtedly we will return if we visit Bologna again. The only reason I didn’t give it 5stars is because the shower didn’t have sufficient hot water one morning. Often, this would bother me more but because everything else was SO good, it paled into insignificance!! The staff were also particularly accommodating and hospitable. Many thanks!

The air conditioning didn’t work. The breakfast was poor. The neighborhood wasn’t the greatest and there was no transportation options around.

Generally good stay
Hotel is generally nice. Staff were friendly and breakfast was very good. Our room had some issues including the light going in the bathroom late at night, charging ports not compatible with more modern eu adapters and the bed sheet having a tear and a large mark on it.

Avoid top floor rooms but otherwise lovely
Hotel was lovely and in a good location however, we stayed in room 209 which was big but had some sort of hotel staff rooms above it. The ceilings are thin so whenever anyone walked up there (a lot of heels on wooden floors?) you could hear it very loudly and you could hear dust dropping within the ceiling. Frustrating when it's occurring late at night and at 6am in the morning as well as any chatter. So unfortunately we didn't sleep well. Hotel breakfast was okay and all else looked good and service was great.
