Delicious Breakfast Spread

The breakfast offered an amazing variety, with everything from fresh pastries to pancakes drizzled in honey. It set a perfect tone for my day. I particularly loved the homemade gluten-free options available as well.

The hotel boasts a fabulous location, just a short walk to Piazza Maggiore and the local train station, making it very convenient for exploring Bologna. While my room was clean and had a nice view of the park and market, it was a bit small and noisy on market days. The breakfast, although good with excellent coffee, could benefit from more variety. Overall, the price felt reasonable for the location and services provided, but the shower pressure was lacking.

I was really disappointed with my stay at this hotel. Although it's in an apparently good location at first glance, the experience was marred by outdated facilities and poor service. The room was less than ideal, and the dining options didn't meet my expectations at all. I wouldn’t recommend this place, especially considering the price I paid.

Rooms

5.0

The room was outdated and had several issues, including dust and a small, leaking shower. It was poorly soundproofed, allowing corridor noise to intrude, which made my stay less comfortable.

Service

Service was lacking; the staff seemed indifferent and unhelpful when I raised concerns about my room and the dining experience.

Location

While the location is central and convenient for sightseeing, it does attract pickpockets, and the immediate surroundings are quite noisy.

Dining

Breakfast was underwhelming with limited options, including tinned fruit and awful coffee. It felt like an afterthought rather than a highlight of the stay.

Facilities

5.0

The facilities are in dire need of updating; they felt shabby and poorly maintained, making me question the overall value.

The hotel is well-situated within walking distance of key attractions and has a nice breakfast selection. However, the rooms feel a bit tired and could use some upgrades, and the staff could be more welcoming. Overall, it's a decent place but not without its drawbacks.

Rooms

The room was small and a bit tired, but it was comfortable enough for our stay. The bathroom tiles were chipped, and the overall atmosphere felt dated.
