Reviews and Ratings
My stay at the hotel was a mix of highs and lows. The rooms, especially on the top floor in loft style, with skylight style opening windows and a great bathroom were stunning, although quite basic in terms of amenities. The staff was welcoming and helpful, and the breakfast was excellent. However, the location, a 15-minute walk from Bologna Centrale train station, was not the most convenient for exploring the city center. The dining experience exceeded my expectations with a variety of options but using disposable plates was a downside.
The hotel rooms were clean and spacious, equipped with all the expected amenities. However, the rooms tended to get uncomfortably hot despite moderate outside temperatures. The service was okay but could benefit from multilingual staff. The location was convenient for train travelers but not ideal for exploring the old town, and the Wi-Fi had some evening connectivity issues. The dining experience was below par, with room for improvement in the buffet quality. Despite these drawbacks, the hotel was safe and well-located near transportation hubs.
