Excelente opción para hospedarse en Bolonia
Pros:

La ubicación es inmejorable. A escasos minutos de la plaza principal y otras atracciones. La decoración del hotel es lindisima, muy italiana y el edificio parece ser un viejo Palazzo. El dormitorio es chico y sin el confort de uno grande y moderno pero está correcto.El desayuno muy bueno. Excelente relación calidad precio.

Cons:

El dormitorio un poco pequeño

A tucked away treasure
Pros:

The Hotel has a unique personality that fits right into the location it is found at. Step out the door and you are right in the beating heart of Bologna's fabulous small mercatos and boutique store finds!It is quiet, air conditioned and comfortable. For those with mobility challenges, the elevator is a welcomed addition.

Lo mejor: la ubicación y el personal de recepción: atentos, encantadores y eficaces.

Lo normal: la habitación cómoda, aunque algo pequeña. El aire acondicionado estupendo, aunque algo difícil de regular.

Lo peor: el desayuno poco variado y muy generalista.
