7/10 Good! (1,000 reviews)

Great location as Bologna is a very walkable city. The room was quaint, all the basic amenities we needed. They did have a very strict 2:00 pm check in but kindly held our luggage. The room was a little “stuffy” with older carpeting which was our only complaint. Two minutes to the main square. Great location for a budget friendly option!

8.6/10 Excellent! (1,000 reviews)

Closer to centre than I thought as don’t usually stay on that side of railway. It was a blessing as there was roadworks outside one hotel and work on the towers at another. Room nice but plain, bathroom very good. Quick check in and room available early. Staff very helpful.
