Very quirky suite with lovely paintings adorning the walls. Floors were a bit creaky in that you could hear people upstairs, but, you get used to it. Ideal location as only a 5 minute stroll from the Piazza Majiore and all the adjacent bars and restaurants.

This hotel is extremely well located in the Old Town and ideal for a few days in Bologna . The hotel is old fashioned but elegant , and the rooms are small but functional . The staff were very helpful and answered all our queries in excellent English . The breakfast was very good and included in the price. Very good value for money and would stay here again.

The best about the place was the location. The place didn't have aircondition only a floor fan which isn't enough in this heat. Bed wasn't the best either. Breakfast was great tho.

Good location, clean room and decent size. There are reviews mentioning the cinema which I could hear in the evening but didn't affect my sleep. The lift was out of service so that wasn't ideal

2/10 Poor

RUN!!! The floors looked like the original carpets from the 1800's... and not in a good way. The 1970s called and they want their decor and furniture back. The beds were thin box spring mattresses on what looked like a camp bed. My back!!! I couldn't tell if the room was clean because the carpet was so disgusting. There was zero a/c and the lady at the front desk told me that 'standard' rooms on the 3rd floor didn't get a/c. Then she gave me a lecture on how it wasn't even that hot out. I did get a fan. I am a woman travelling alone and the guy at the front desk loudly announced my room number twice, as he handed me a key in a lobby area full of people. They were sold out, so i couldn't get a new room. The good things: 1. the sheets were curiously wonderful- starched, ironed and luxurious. 2. The bathroom was immaculate. 2. They allowed me to store my e-bike in their garage free of charge.

It was a very old hotel with unique features. Only stayed 1 night, which was fine. If you are staying longer you might want something a little more updated and comfortable. Location was great to explore the city!

Verified review

6/10 Good

I have stayed in this hotel a number of times before and it's fantastic for its location and price, but man, they really need to sort out the air-conditioning situation. They gave me a desk fan, which wasn't really up to the task, and sleeping in these conditions was not pleasant. I'm not sure if I'll stay there again as the prospect of putting up with another summer of 37/38 degree heat in one of these rooms is not a tempting one. The hotel is a bit old and shabby and needs a proper overhaul. The creaking floorboards are incredibly loud when people are walking up and down the corridors. The staff were very nice. Special mention to Antonella on reception, who was lovely and helpful.
Verified review

2/10 Poor

The hotel is conveniently located in the old town, also not far from Bologna Centrale station. It is very old. The carpet is so dirty. The first night I stayed in a room with no air-conditioning. Outside temperature was 37C.They provided a small fan and I couldn't sleep at all. The second night I managed to change to an air conditioning room. But the room is very small and no window. The air-conditioning barely keeps the room cooler. I am surprised that Hotels. Com recommend this hotel.

Great central location but very outdated, needs a lot of TLC to get it up to modern hotel standards. It was a cheap price and convenient so can’t be too fussy

The only thing good about this property was it location, it is poorly maintained all the carpets are very dirty, the bathrooms are uncomfortable, the toilet do not flush properly, there was no water pressure at the shower, the bedroom are updated, and the most important thing is they do not disclose that they do not have air conditioning, once you get there you realize you don’t have air-conditioning in your room and the temperature outside was above 80. this was the worst hotel I ever been.
