Great customer service, all staff welcoming and friendly. Room was clean and comfortable. The breakfast was great with a healthy variety of choosing. The only one negative is the sound insulation between the walls and ceiling was slightly poor. Apart from this one negative, I would definitely stay again.

One of my favorite comfort hotel stays of our trip! Modernized rooms with plenty of space, comforts, and best A/C we have found in a hotel. Breakfast is wonderful and the location is very quiet and convenient, especially if you plan to walk the Portico di San Luca. This hotel in Bologna was quite refreshing after some smaller, tighter, older locales.

Liked: Cleanliness
Pros: very clean, older property but the cleaning staff do a great job. Fernando especially is a great staff member helping with a very good breakfast experience. Cons: no exhaust in the washrooms, very linty sheets, room unit fan not working, no elevators (important for those that have heavy luggage or mobility issues).
