We got an studio flat very comfortable with all the facilities, we also have the washing machine so we managed to wash some clothes, we bought some groceries and made our own breakfast and dinner. The lift is only for residents but we were on the second floor.

Spacious apartment with a great location

Excellent location. Spacious apartment with a full size refrigerator and washing machine. Was a quiet and safe area. Refrigerator kept drinks super cold which was great as weather was extremely hot. Air Conditioners in kitchen and bedroom were a little noisy. Overall a very good stay and would recommend.

Pas convaincus

La situation géographique était parfaite mais la literie était vraiment très inconfortable, sans parler des oreillers qui étaient probablement les pires qu'on n'ait jamais eus. L'isolation phonique de l'habitation n'est vraiment pas terrible.

Residenza Ariosto is an excellent place to stay in Bologna. The apartment is not luxurious but is clean ,comfortable and has everything you need. The apartments in via Marsala are in a great position to explore and enjoy Bologna. Instructions for check in are clear. This is our second stay and we highly recommend.
