Host gentilissimo e disponibile. Perfetto per chi cerca un posto dove poter parcheggiare l‘auto al sicuro. La pulizia ok. Per i miei gusti, ci sono troppi tappeti… In complesso raccomando la struttura, specialmente se vai a Bologna per una fiera.

Comodo per la fiera ma per il resto..

Camera fredda, fuori nevicava...il bagno praticamente sotto zero per la temperatura e munito di un unico rotolo di carta igienica già cominciato. La porta che chiude il disimpegno tra bagno e camera da letto non aveva serratura.. ColazIone dozzinale. Per 60€/notte insufficiente.

Bel b&b, bisogna migliorare la pulizia

La struttura é carina, arredamento ben curato, proprietaria molto gentile e affabile, un bel cagnolino che all'occorrenza fa gli onori di casa. La posizione é leggermente fuori mano, sono circa 20 minuti da stazione centrale ed é una zona residenziale, senza locali neanche per mangiare un boccone. Per ciò che riguarda la pulizia, mi ha dato la sensazione che la stanza fosse stata usata poco e non pulita a fondo di recente, c'era un po' di polvere intorno alla vasca da bagno, ad esempio. Nel complesso sono stata bene, ma lo avrei gradito di più se fosse stato più pulito.
