Bien pour un court séjour
Pros:

L'emplacement et le parking payant de l'hôtel très facilitant.

Cons:

La chambre donnant sur le restaurant extérieur car un peu bruyant le soir jusqu'à tard. L'eau payante (fontaine en bas des escaliers et petites bouteilles plastiques du frigo).

Sehr feines Hotel für einen 1-Tages-Aufenthalt in Ferrara.
Pros:

Wir waren auf der Durchreise und haben einen Tag/Abend in Ferrar verbracht. Ein schönes Hotel, sehr zentrumsnah in einer ruhigen Gasse. Es hat unsere Anforderungen voll und ganz erfüllt.

Pros:

Výborná lokalita v centru města. Pod domluvě parkování u hotelu - kryté parkoviště, 20 euro/noc. Díky tomu je také možno přijet až k hotelu autem, jinak se hotel nachází v "chráněné zóně". Prostor velmi pěkný, loftové ubytování nám vyhovovalo. Snídaně také dobrá. Klidně bych se sem i s rodinou vrátila.

Piacevole soggiorno, sono tornata per la seconda volta
Pros:

Ero già stata in questo hotel e ho deciso di tornarci per la seconda volta. Le camere sono ben pulite e spaziose. Anche la colazione è apprezzabile. Il prezzo era un po' eccessivo (anche in considerazione di quanto avevo pagato lo scorso anno), sicuramente poiché in concomitanza con il Ferrara Summer Fest.

Cons:

Nel complesso tutto molto piacevole.

Pros:

Für unsere Bedürfnisse, Zwischenstopp am Heimweg, hat das Zimmer entsprochen.

Cons:

Leider wirkte das Personal zum Teil eher unmotiviert. Auch das Frühstück war selbst für italienische Verhältnisse eher überschaubar.
