We loved it (but this area is not for children!)
Great little apartment in a great area (although I wouldn’t describe the area as child friendly- we saw quite a lot of open drug taking and rough sleepers right outside and the bars either side got very loud and busy) this wasn’t a concern for us at all but I wouldn’t have wanted to be there with children. The rooms are great, service was helpful and the in-room breakfast was fantastic. Would definitely stay again

Great location.
Beautiful room in the heart of Bologna with many bars and restaurants a short walk away. Room is spotlessly clean with breakfast items left in fridge. Would not hesitate to stay again.

Great stay in Bologna. Walking distance to everything. Was a bit of a pain trying to get into the bldg initially amd wish there was someone available at the front desk to ask questions of, but the hotel contact was super quick to respond via text. Large open space, clean, highly recommend

Spotlessly clean & comfortable with a quirky steam punk vibe, this unique property in an area within walkable distance to many tourist attractions. Plenty of restaurants nearby to suit all tastes and budgets.
The owner provided a useful list of information including taxi numbers and so on.

Room in Bologna
Excellent room, super comfortable, spacious and clean. Despite being on a street that is very busy and noisy at night, the room is quiet, the windows block all sounds.The restaurants and bars everywhere in Bologna are great, but downstairs seems to be a very vibrant aerea.
The staff was very helpful, accommodating and kind.
Highly recommend.

We had a great stay. The room was very spacious and comfortable. Valentina was a super nice and helpful host. Loved the area as well, lovely little bars downstairs, but the appartement is super well insulated so you don’t hear a thing.

Our room was very large and comfortable. Valentina was very kind. We were given a free minibar with soft drinks, biscuits, jams, coffee and tea. The area is bustling with students so there are lots of great bars and restaurants. Despite the noise from the street, the room was well isolated so we had a lovely night.
Overall, we’re very pleased with our stay.

Close to shopping, restaurants, and sightseeing. Easy check-in. Staff was friendly and accommodating. But, if you want quiet, it's not the place.

The room was very quiet, staff very friendly (notes only on site a few hours a day)
No lift for bags and you have to enter through a security gate. Ok for us but may be inconvenient for some.
Area very convenient and becomes a great hub of activity at night. Really loved the style of the room.

Cosy place within walking distance from old town
A very clean and nice place with breakfast in the rooms.
Nice "mini" apartment with lots in the near surroundings.
Only drawback was the superbusy bar just underneath which creates some noise in the evenings (but also very good for drinks)...
