Staff very friendly and helpful. Room was clean but very very very loud creaking floorboards, and there were pigeons roosting outside the en-suite window, which we couldn’t close, so we didn’t need an early wake-up call! However it’s an old hotel and we did have a very comfortable and pleasant stay.

We were looking for a hotel in Bologna that was well located and had lots of atmosphere with large room and balcony and this hotel turned out perfect. We arrived much later then anticipated and had not eaten yet and lucky for us Antonella was on the desk that night and she gave us perfect directions to a nearby restaurant that turned out to be the highlight of our stay in Bologna. She continued to give us the best advice for our next few days that we stayed there. The breakfast here is really good also. We can’t wait to return to this hotel. Hopefully Antonella will still be here when we return.

Hotel is “tired”. Needs some fixing up. We couldn’t open our shades to see out the window. Very old rug and “dingy” feel. Scores high for good comfortable bed, good shower pressure and hot water and location.
