Guest Ratings & Reviews
The hotel is conveniently located near the city center and the train station, making it handy for transportation. The rooms, although small and lacking storage space, were clean and modern, suitable for a short stay. The service was a bit limited in language proficiency but extremely helpful with recommendations. The dining experience, while basic, offered fair options. Overall, a decent choice for a short stay in Bologna.
My stay at the hotel was pleasant overall. The rooms were clean and a good size, though the front-facing rooms might be noisy for light sleepers due to the busy main road. The complimentary stocked fridge was a nice touch, and daily room cleaning was impressive. The continental breakfast offered a great variety of fresh items, making it a highlight of the stay.
I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The rooms, although clean and spacious, were not soundproof and facing the main road, making it noisy. The seating in common areas needs refurbishment but the staff were very accommodating and friendly during our stay.
