Guest Reviews
Location
The hotel is situated in the outskirts of Bologna, which results in limited interest for those looking to explore the city’s center. However, it compensates with a bus stop located right in front, providing a direct 30-minute connection to the city center, making it accessible without the need for personal transportation.

Breakfast
However, not all feedback was positive. Some guests found the breakfast lacking in organization and quality with issues like slow replenishment of food items and shortages, especially during peak times.
