Cheap and nasty experience
We booked here at shortish notice as our original plans for Bologna fell through. The B&B hotel was quite cheap and looked OK as a a place to stay for a few days. A bit on the spartan side, but ok for the money. The area around it is not great, in an industrial estate with abandoned-looking vehicles. I was worried about parking nearby, but had no problems in the end. However, we left after just one night. The fire alarm woke us up at 3am and kept going for a long time. No response from staff, no visit from the local emergency services. We felt unsafe and didn't want to stay any longer. Avoid!

Great value for money specially for business stay
I stayed in this hotel about a year and half ago and it was in a desperate need of a refurb. this time it was refurbed with a modern design and eveything working veru well, apart from the hair dryer which didnt really blow. The staff would go out of their way to assisst you and generally very happy and smiley. The hotel rate is amazingly reasonable and location is not the greatest but taxis attend within 8 minutes. I would choose to stay there for my future trips to bologna.

Last resort
No AC. Dog barking outside. Hotel is located in a commercial area which means there is no stores within walking distance. Internet is super slow after 9 pm. Breakfast is good, staff is mostly helpful, vending machine has beer and wine and other snacks which replaces the room service, lol.

Desperate for modernisation.
The hotel is in desperate need of modernisation. Week shower, aged toilet and not thoroughly cleaned, no hand soap, one hand towel to use for shower and hands. Uncomfortable bed probably just old mattress. Location is ok for centregross but far from bologna. Good reasonably priced breakfast and not over extravagant to be waisted. The staff are friendly and helpful. Overall it's better to pay more and be nearer to your main place of visit as taxis costs would easily over run the extra hotel costs.

Average hotel.
The Hotel is located in suburb of Bologna. 15- 20 min. to the city center. If you have a car It's not a problem. During my staying there It was calm and quiet. Room was clean and neat. Front desk personnel speak some english. The only thing I didn't like was internet. You can hook up your laptop to Wi-Fi only when you are in lobby on a first floor. Moreover it costs you aditional fee. When they say about free internet, they mean one desktop computer, wich is standing in lobby. Overall I'd say It is a good budgeted hotel. I used it as a place where I could overnight. Next time I will take something closer to the city center.

OUR MISTAKE------
Located in an industrial area--dogs barking--staff the absolute rudest we have come across! Wifi was included in our room cost--had to argue with front desk to get pass--then they only gave it when we asked for manager,we paid for 4 days--left after 2--not worth staying!! They live off of tour busses--3 each day--room never cleaned til late in day--as they do check-outs first.Asked for soap to shower---had to buy our own. Need a car--we had one, so no problem. Worst experience since here--after 4 months of travel--

Stayed here a week--need a car--20 yo Bologna---no bus or train from hotel.Internet does not work in room and seldom in lobby.room minimal--no place to put clothes--no drawer space. Did not do breakfast. Gym was a bonus.Very busy with tour buses and local factory workers. The hotel is in the middle of an industrial area.

Nettuno Hotel
Hotel is in an industrial park and taxis seem to always cost 16-20euros to get to the town centre or to Cosmoprof which is pricey to do every day. You have to pay for Wifi too which I don't think is acceptable in this day and age. It's 10euros for 1 hour, 20euros for 24 hours. Should be free. Also the tv channels didnt work so I couldnt watch anything.

OK to stay while passing nearby.
Hotel has an "old fashion" feel about it. No free internet, RJ45 cable in the room then massively expensive to connect. No english TV. Wide range of TV options at massive cost. Restaraunt had a "Fawlty Towers" feel. But it was a cheap nights stay. Nothing to do locally. Free Parking on the street outside.

Excellent hotel. A real 3 star
Excellent hotel. A real 3 star hotel. Very very clean with double glass windows, big rooms,helpful staff , breakfast was rich of tastes with fresh coffee of many types.It was in an industrial area but we were liked that, cause it hasn't got traffic and noise.We pay nothing for what we get... The only disadvantage was the Wifi at cost..I will stay there again next time...

Fantastic Hotel
We only stayed for an overnight stop but this hotel was the best we have stayed in whilst abroad! There is an impressive reception area and the room had everything you need, was very clean and had a comfortable bed. The ensuite was also very well equipped (hairdryer, toiletries, towels etc.) and clean. Blackout curtains were great! The continental breakfast was huge and was of a very high quality and standard. The only negative point I might make is that it's a bit out of the way and seems set in a sort of industrial estate, but for us this was ideal because it meant we had a quiet night's sleep without any street noise. Great hotel - will definitely return if travelling through Italy and need a relaxing stopping point.

Posto in zona industriale e con antenne vicinissime. Parcheggio su strada o nei pochi posti disponibili di pertinenza hotel o volendo garage. Camere pulite ma con qualche pecca di rifinitura specie nei bagni.

Senza infamia e senza lode
Hotel economico come ci si aspetta dalla fascia di prezzo, in zona industriale ma tranquilla (almeno di sabato) e comunque a 15 minuti in auto dal centro di Bologna. Decente la colazione. Molto male l’isolamento acustico praticamente assente dal corridoio e piano sopra, il bagno era molto vecchio e il piatto doccia appariva sporco tanto che abbiamo rinunciato a farci la doccia per farla poi a casa (siamo stati solo 1 notte). In generale per una notte va benissimo per risparmiare qualcosa, se avete la macchina. Sono stato in hotel decisamente messi meglio della stessa catena (ad esempio a Milano)
