I had a mixed experience during my stay. The hotel has a charming and artistic ambiance that I appreciated, but the room was a bit dated and not as comfortable as I'd hoped. The breakfast was fantastic, offering a great variety, but I would have liked the spa to be included for guests. Overall, it offers good value for money, but there are some areas that need improvement.

I had a mixed experience at this boutique hotel in Bologna. While the unique decor and friendly staff added charm to my stay, the small and uncomfortable rooms detracted from the overall enjoyment. The location was acceptable, quite accessible to the city's main attractions, though not in the heart of everything. Unfortunately, the noisy air conditioning made it hard to get a good night's sleep.

My stay at the hotel had its ups and downs. The location was excellent, just a short walk from the train station, which made commuting easy. The staff were genuinely kind and helpful, which enhanced the overall experience. However, the breakfast options were somewhat lackluster, and the room, although tidy, was quite small, making it feel a bit cramped. Overall, it served its purpose for my short visit, but there are definitely areas for improvement.

The hotel offers good value for the price with a convenient proximity to Bologna Centrale Station. The breakfast is diverse and enjoyable, and the overall cleanliness is commendable. However, room size and comfort can vary significantly, and some aspects like the staff service may not meet expectations.
