Great value and pool

Great location an amazing olympic size swimming pool and free parking. Breakfast was included and had great selections. Nice size shopping mall and mercado 5 minute walk from the hotel. Unfortunately taxi rides are very expensive to go to Old Town which is about 5 km away. There is a bus that takes you there but not on weekends or holidays.

It’s an older hotel that they are remodeling.. but it’s a poor remodel. Our biggest complaint was the that we reserved 3 rooms, only 2 rooms had working air conditioning. We spoke to the hotel multiple times to try to get it fixed, no success.. just promises of it getting fixed and no results, no follow up. When we checked out I mentioned that the rooms AC was still not resolved and they tried to say that the city has not permitted them to turn on the AC. Breakfast is good so that’s a nice perk. Didn’t stay for dinner as the ambiance is terrible bit finding a restaurant nearby is tough as it’s at least 25 min to the downtown by uber and a costly uber ride of $70-$100 Euro. Beds are very firm, but rooms are quite nicely redone with new showers and new furnishings including a laminate floor. I would not return.

Excellent hotel for bologna

This seemed like a business hotel but is a great hotel, situated on the outskirts of bologna. If you have a car it is excellent location for driving to Bologna, Florence, Pisa, Verona and Venice as this is close to the motorway. Good breakfast and plenty of free parking on site. The room was excellent as we had a new room with 2 double beds. It has a nice indoor mall with a supermarket just behind the hotel within 5 minutes walk. Also has Macdonalds and Burger King in the mall along with other eateries. Only downside was the weather and time of year meant we couldn't apprecaite the pool area

Hotel a little bit tired. Have to pay for pool towels and pool umbrellas even as guests. Paper cups in the rooms for tea and coffee was not a 4 star hotel thing... Restaurant was great for breakfast, but overpriced and poor service for dinner. Did the job but not a 4 star hotel.
