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.

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!

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.

The hotel is in a great walking area but difficult for a car/parking. The bed was very uncomfortable and there is little in the room - no cups, no coffee, no fridge. The staff at the desk were not very welcoming no “Welcome to the hotel”” or “did you enjoy your stay?”. They do have a great breakfast and the area is authentic old town.
