Very cozy guest house, Marco the owner is a very talented multilingual man, he explained in detail how everything worked. The property is close to the historic center, lots of places to eat near by and also fairly close to the main train station. The room was very cleaned. Highly recommended.

A flat on the edge of Bologna centre

Whilst the flat is a bit of a walk from the aerobus stops in town or train station, the city is fairly compact for tourists; I had a suitcase with me. PLEASE NOTE their office is closed in the afternoon unless you arrange otherwise directly - I overlooked this......... - it meant I had to go to a "local" restaurant to pass the time but I had a list of recommended ones to choose from ;p Marco was very helpful in explaining the accommodation - he showed me into the flat & offered to carry my luggage! - the check out process, how to use the gas cooker to make proper coffee if you want, where the local supermarkets are e.g. COOP is opposite, leaving luggage on check-out etc.

Very clean, nice and friendly guy, and close to everything. Less than 20 minutes walk to the train station and close to city center. Two things: 1. NO AIR CONDITIONER. So if you are an AC freak, this is not a place for you. 2. I wish they had a small microwave oven in the room or somewhare around, perhaps in the hallway, at some common area.

Location is good. Room was good. The issue we had was that during the day the heating was off and when we could come after a day out the room was freezing Every evening instead if relaxing we were hiding under the blankets We wanted to to tell the guy in the reception but when we went to talk to him he wasn't there At around 11at night the room started to get warm, very anoying if you arrive around 8 to the room after a day outside Shower was big but the Watter pressure very bad. Water was warm but not always hot I would stay in this hotel only when the weather is warm and no need for heating

A nice hotel in a great location

I arrived on a Saturday afternoon and was met by the manager, who quickly checked me in, offered me some water and then showed me the room. I stayed seven nights and had no problems.

Fairly old guesthouse. Difficult to locate initially as there was no signage. Had to ask the neighbouring Chinese resto. Room is basic. Suitable for budget traveller.

Knowing where to check in is not clearly defined, although the phone number is posted. I didn't have a phone and was grateful someone came out of the pensionne and directed me to the office two doors down. A recommendation would be to indicate check-in location with the notes that also specify office hours. Manager was most hospitable; the room was very clean, and it was a great location from which to explore the city centre. Also, there is a COOP (grocer) across the street and a refrigerator in the room.

No frills, but comfortable

Very helpful receptionist would waited until well after our expected arrival time to check us in. The room was very basic but warm and comfortable. Good range of cafes nearby for breakfast and only a 10 minute walk to Piazza Maggiore.

If you are looking for 5☆ services than you have to book in more luxurious hotel . This is budget hotel. Very basic. But very clean and comfortable. We were busy during the day and room was perfectly comfortable to have enough rest at night.owner was exceptionaly helpful. It was our first time in Italy and his help was very important to us. Transport stops just across the street from hotel and it was very convenient for us. We wish to have a kettle in the room for coffee or tea but area has lots of coffee shops near by so we didn't mind it. Will recommend this hotel to any one who is looking for clean and affordable accommodation in Bologna.
