Reviews and Ratings
The hotel is situated in a local area that's a bit away from the main city, but at this price level, it's not a major issue. The rooms are quite small, making it a challenge to move around with limited space, and no phone provided caused some inconvenience. However, it does have air conditioning which allowed a choice in using it during a stay in February. The location offers a variety of cafes, shops, and pizza places, with a short walk to the Bologna metro and nice restaurants nearby for an evening meal.
