I was very disappointed with my stay. The room looked much larger in the photos, but in reality it was extremely small. The bed was also far too short for me. I am 183 cm tall, and I couldn’t sleep comfortably. The mattress was narrow, and the pillow was one of the most uncomfortable I have ever used. The air conditioner is installed directly above the bed, blowing cold air straight onto your face while you sleep. When I mentioned this to the staff, I was told it wouldn’t be a problem, but unfortunately it made my stay very uncomfortable, and I even became sick. Another major issue is the location of the hotel. It is situated on a very busy street, making it impossible to sleep with the windows open because of the constant traffic and car horns. Since I couldn’t keep the windows open and had to rely on the air conditioning, the experience became even worse. For a stay that cost nearly €200, I expected a much higher level of comfort. This was honestly one of the least comfortable hotel experiences I have ever had. Unfortunately, I cannot recommend this hotel to anyone.

I booked a single room as I am traveling solo. By American standards, the room was compact with a single twin bed, but this is what I booked, no surprise. The bathroom and shower were fine, as was the wifi and minisplit air conditioning. Staff is friendly and helpful and the continental breakfast buffet was good. I would stay here again if I ever make it back to Bologna .
