Pros:

Very clean, comfortable, and in a great location

The accommodation was exceptionally clean and had a lovely, fresh smell, which made it feel very welcoming and comfortable. I also felt that the privacy and security were very good, and the location was convenient for exploring Málaga.

The only minor downside was some noise due to the shared nature of the accommodation. However, it wasn’t a major issue.

Overall, I had a very pleasant stay and would happily recommend this place, especially for its cleanliness, comfort, and sense of security.

Great stay.
Pros:

The room was spotless and the reception open 24 hours. Reception was very helpful and advised and updated about protests.
This hotel is a quick walk into the old part of Bologna on the east side.
I walked from the train station. It’s a 40 minutes walk at least with luggage but is doable if you are fairly fit.
The bed was comfortable and there was lots of hot water. There is a COOP a little way away from the hotel which is convenient.
Breakfast was super with coffee, ham and cheese, English breakfast and pastries.

Pros:

Das Personal, es hat sich sehr bemüht während des heißen Sommers die Klimaanlage mit der Erlaubnis des Hotel Direktors, nochmals zu senken. Da es nicht frei wählbar war, wie kalt die Klimaanlage arbeiten soll.

Cons:

Bett klapprig, keine richtige Wand in der die Zimmertüre gehalten wird, nur eine dünne Holzverplendung , dadurch war es sehr hellhörig und laut.
In der Dusche fehlte die 2. Seite der Kabine, Toilette wackelte sehr, so das man schon Angst bekomm und der Dunstabzug im Bad war defekt und konnte nicht auf die Schnelle instand gesetzt werden.

Pros:

Personalet, beliggenhed og værelset vi fik byttet til efter første nat.

Cons:

Det første værelse vi fik, det var ultra småt, ingen plads til kuffert eller garderobe til 2 personer. Man har virkelig presset citronen ved at sælge det værelse som 2 personers!
Morgenmaden, er den med i prisen, så lad gå men jeg ville ikke betale ekstra for det...
