Guest Reviews
- Pierpaolo (10/5): -
- Krystian (9/5): -
- Carlo (9/5): -
- Alberto (7/5): -
- Thorsten (8/5): Gut geeignet für einen Städtetrip - Die Inhaber waren sehr freundlich und die Unterkunft war sehr stylisch eingerichtet. Das Frühstück wurde auf einer hübschen Terrasse serviert.
Es gab einen Fahrradweg direkt in die Altstadt. Das Bett war sehr weich.
- Wendy (3/5): Je déconseille - L'emplacement et la facilité de parcage. L'accueil est froid. C'était très sale, j'ai du nettoyer les toilettes avant de les utiliser. Le verre dans la chambre était dégueulasse. Les draps de lit sont vieux et sentent mauvais. Je ne pouvais pas verrouiller ma porte de toilette/douche dont l'accès donne sur le couleur (à tout le monde). Le petit déjeuner était ridicule pour le prix. Je ne consseille absolument pas cet établissement et pour le prix c'est totalement exagéré.
- Zena (1/5): Don’t recommend at all. - only that the location is good and room is spacious. I’ve stayed in over 20 hotels and guesthouses across Europe, and this was by far my worst experience. The accommodation is actually rooms in a house, not a proper hotel setup, which led to confusion from the start. I was initially given two rooms with their keys, only to be woken up two hours later and told there was a mistake. The host was rude, didn’t apologize, and even entered the room while I was packing, complaining about needing to clean again.
The situation was handled very unprofessionally, especially bringing other guests to the door while I was still inside. The bathroom was outside the room (although my room could be locked), and the sliding door between my room/bathroom and the outside didn’t lock, which felt very insecure.
Breakfast was inconsistent and poor. The host, who lives downstairs, cooked strong-smelling food for dinner that spread into the rooms and was quite unpleasant. There was also an awkward situation where I was asked to pay city tax again, even though it was already included in my payment.
On top of that, basic amenities were lacking (very small trash bin, weak fridge and no wardrobe). Overall, I would not recommend staying here.
- Adriana Spataru (10/5): - We just lived the design of this place, it feels like a live art gallery. The hosts are super helpful and kind. The rooms aren't really soundproof, but it was quiet enough to have a great good night sleep.
- Alessio (10/5): -
- ANASTASIIA (10/5): - Очень доброжелательная хозяйка Моника, приятная в общении. Потрясающий дизайн дома, можно бесконечно ходить и рассматривать детали. Муж оценил музыкальную коллекцию хозяина дома.
- Stefano (8/5): -
- Migotto (8/5): -
- Giuseppe (10/5): Eccellente - Pulita ed accogliente Nulla
- Allegra (10/5): Grazie! - Molto bella, terrazzo colazione carino, host molto simpatici
- LAND DISTRIBUTION (10/5): - Pulizia e gentilezza L'iingresso del parcheggio un po' stretto
- Pedretti (9/5): Incantevole Loft in condivisione con i suoi proprietari - Appartamento stupendo nella zona nord di Bologna. La casa è abitata dai proprietari che mettono a disposizione due camere co bagno privato.
L'abitazione è incantevole, arredata con grande gusto. La camera che ho abitato è spaziosa, con un grande letto e un bagno veramente bellissimo con finiture di pregio.
I proprietari si sono dimostrati disponibili e gentili. Il letto, nonostante sia munito di topper molto spesso, risulta un po' infossato, forse per la struttura (bellissima) vintage, comunque ampiamente utilizzabile, valuterei solo delle doghe nuove.
- Eva (10/5): - I wish I had more day to spend in this lovely home.
Fantastic location, close to the historic town. The breakfast was delicious and ample.
Highly recommend.
- IGOR (10/5): Beautiful house with lovely people - The owners are a lovely couple who were approachable and nice. The house itself is beautiful, full of artwork, it has an interesting vibe. The room was clean and comfortable with everything that I needed. Breakfast was very good. Location was super convenient for me as it was 15min walk to the Research area and 15-20min to various nice restaurants and train station (basically going straight).
- Melek (8/5): - İçeri girdiğimizde ev sahipleri sıcak karşıldılar ,mimari olarak güzeldi ,bizde araç olduğu için havaalanına uzaklığı iyiydi Sadece kahvaltısını yetersiz buldum
- Laura (9/5): - Appartamento dal design particolare e molto bello. Camere spaziose, letti comodi.
La signora Monica e suo marito gentilissimi, cordiali e disponibili: abbiamo avuto la netta sensazione di essere ospiti a casa di amici. Ambiente un po' freddo.
- Alessandro (10/5): -
- Alexandra (10/5): Everything was great, thank you very much :) -
- Székács (10/5): Ajánlott. - Minden rendben volt, a szállásadók kedvesek voltak, nem tudok róluk rosszat írni. Én bátran ajánlom azoknak, akik rövidebb vagy hosszabb időre keresnek szállást és nem ragaszkodnak ahhoz, hogy Bologna belvárosában legyen a szállás. Nincs ilyen.

- Lothar (10/5): - Wonderfull Interieur and super friendly hosts.
- Jacqueline (7/5): - Mooi ingerichte B&B. Aardige gastvrouw. Het ontbijt was goed. De wandeling (25 minuten) naar het centrum was goed te lopen, maar je kon ook met de bus gaan. De auto kon op eigen terrein geparkeerd worden. Er waren wat bouwwerkzaamheden in de omgeving.
- Jan (7/5): - Friendly stuff Could be cleaner
- Stefania (9/5): -
- Antonio (10/5): - L’incredibile cura dei proprietari, si percepisce la cura del singolo dettaglio, dei materiali e della scelta stilistica.

- Matthew (8/5): Very good -
- Roberta (9/5): Antonio & Monica were wonderful hosts, very helpful, accomodating and friendly. There is a supermarket around the co - Loved the set up, everywhere you looked there was something interesting. Bit out of Bologna, but there is a bus stop down the road.
- Paola (8/5): - .
- Jurgen (9/5): Ideal for a few days transit, the art in the house is a must-see -
- IVAN (10/5): - Tutto molto bello.
- Giovanni (10/5): Nice quick stay - Great service. Well designed and equipped. Friendly owners
- Desislava (10/5): Exceptional - A special place with unique spirit
- Cristina (10/5): - Host gentilissimo e disponibile. Perfetto per chi cerca un posto dove poter parcheggiare l‘auto al sicuro. La pulizia ok. Per i miei gusti, ci sono troppi tappeti… In complesso raccomando la struttura, specialmente se vai a Bologna per una fiera.
- Blue (10/5): Exceptional - The place was nice and tidy, check in was super easy. The rooms and bathrooms had doors in-between so it was possible to relax and have some privacy. The breakfast was super nice and we were able to request when we'd like to have breakfast each day. Monica and Antonio are nice and hospitable people and we overall had a very nice stay Everything was good to be honest
- Cisneros (9/5): My stay was pleasant, the owner is very welcoming and friendly. - Location and connectivity for the city centre. Old towels
- Federico (10/5): - Tutto perfetto; complimenti alla Sig.ra Monica titolare della struttura
- Liam (10/5): - Brilliant place to stay post ironman clean and spacious. Host allowed me to park car and leave it until later afternoon. More of struggle with bigger car. Generous check out time of 11am (not quite 11.30 as advertised but no big deal).
- Raffaele (9/5): Welcoming hosts and a nice room make for a great experience. - Very nice and picturesque B&B that lives up to its name. The room was plenty large, very nicely decorated, and most importantly clean. It came with all the needed amenities, i.e., hairdryer, towels, air con, minifridge, electric kettle, etc. The hosts were incredibly gracious and welcoming. It's also only about 10 minutes away from the center by bus, with the bus stop only a 3-5min walk away from the B&B itself. Highly recommended.
- Oleg (10/5): Exceptional - Very interesting accommodation with fabulous design. You just can spend your time inside exploring the interior :)
In the room was everything we needed. Hosts always ready to help.
- Luis (10/5): - Very nice place, very well located and owners were very nice and attentive.
- Alexander (8/5): Very good -
- Angelo (10/5): Great - Great
- Denis (6/5): Nice people, calm location, but quite pricy for such breakfast and facilities - Fantastic house, very interesting to look around. Parking Breakfast like nothing, but coffee is good. Facilities like towels etc quite old, overall too expensive for this, might be great in the future, but service
- Pamela (8/5): - We stayed here one night. Antonio gave us ideas where to eat and he made us eggs for breakfast - rather than the typical coffee and croissant ;)
- Alida (10/5): Monica was an extraordinarily lovely and helpful host,nothing was too much trouble and she also - Location was close to airport and very east to travel by bus to main attractions.
Breakfast was ample and served in beautiful outdoor setting. Nothing really.
- Jakub (7/5): Good -
- Timothy (10/5): - Monica (sp?) was very nice and accommodating.
- Hazel (6/5): beautifully designed house but not a place to revisit as not a warm welcome - The location was fine and it was easy to get a bus into the city centre .There were some interesting ethnic restaurants close by and a pleasant park. The room and bathroom were beautifully decorated and the outside area was lovely. The fruit given to us for the room was a lovely touch . The quality of the breakfast was poor -sliced white bread not toasted properly , cold milky coffee and only warmed croissants on the first morning, not the second . The host did not make us feel particularly welcome and it felt like she was not very interested in running a Band B alongside her design business . We were not encouraged to use the kitchen facilities as this was not explained or pointed out to us or whether we could use the living area . I booked a triple room for 2 single people but the bed settee collapsed in the middle of the night and there was very little space to move around .There were no mugs in the room and if we wanted to make a drink, it was difficult to plug the kettle in.
- César (10/5): - Es una casa preciosa, tienes privacidad en una habitación bastante grande y baño propio. El desayuno tiene de todo y la dueña es encantadora. Lo recomiendo!
- Katarzyna (9/5): Superb - The host was amazing, very friendly and she made us very nice breakfasts. The whole house is very chic - I liked the interior very much.
- Colin (9/5): Very friendly people and a very unusual place. I liked it! Thanks!! - This is a unique location. The owners are very welcoming into what is in fact their home. Very open and friendly people. The house has been reconfigured and is full of arty artifacts. Books everywhere! Quite fascinating. My room was self-contained and convenient. You would call the decor “distressed” and it all fitted in to the ambience. The shower room was first rate. Breakfast was served on an outdoor terrace by the hostess, a very tranquil experience surrounded by plants. The place was very quiet despite being on a corner. The days were hot but the breakfast area was really cool. The host even drove me to the airport! Not too easy to find, especially arriving in darkness. A short walk takes you to the bus stop where there are convenience stores. Easy to get into the city centre
- Hesham (10/5): Excellent! - The B&B Design has a unique flair of Vintage. It's super comfy and feels like home. The worker there was very friendly. Even it was just one night stay, it superiored my stay in Bologna.
- Verified traveler (10/5): well-being of the mind and body - E' una casa bellissima dove due architetti con grande sintonia, e piacevole benessere comunicano la loro esperienza di vita attraverso tutto ciò che c ' è , dagli oggetti , ai preziosissimi mobili ., camino grande e acceso , tutto vissuto ....senza dimenticare il carlino carinissimo , .....dando a loro volta : benessere .
Ti accoglie Monica eccezionale e meravigliosa padrona di casa e ti offre la sua splendida casa dove respiri arte e cultura vissuta.
E' davvero un esperienza piacevole , la casa è a tre kilometri dall ' aereoporto e quando entri .. stai bene ! Entrambe due splendide persone.
La camera è bella e spazosa , pulita . ricca di libri meravigliosi , .. perfino tisane e acqua calda in camera e candela profumata . Bagno grande e fantastica doccia emozionale ...
Colazione ricchissima , torte di casa , cornetti , biscotti , cereali , marmellate varie, Kiwi e non sò ancora quanto di altro !!! ... Da regina , fantastica .. ricca , c ' era davvero tutto .
Grazie per avermi ospitato e fatta stare bene.
A great place full of well-being where your mind tastes and breathes culture and art .
Thank you so much .
- Verified traveler (4/5): Comodo per la fiera ma per il resto.. - Camera fredda, fuori nevicava...il bagno praticamente sotto zero per la temperatura e munito di un unico rotolo di carta igienica già cominciato. La porta che chiude il disimpegno tra bagno e camera da letto non aveva serratura..
ColazIone dozzinale.
Per 60€/notte insufficiente.
- Debora (8/5): - Siamo stati molto bene. I proprietari persone gradevoli ed anche Lola il cane è stata molto paziente con i miei bimbi Riccardo ed Alice.
- Verified traveler (8/5): Bel b&b, bisogna migliorare la pulizia - La struttura é carina, arredamento ben curato, proprietaria molto gentile e affabile, un bel cagnolino che all'occorrenza fa gli onori di casa.
La posizione é leggermente fuori mano, sono circa 20 minuti da stazione centrale ed é una zona residenziale, senza locali neanche per mangiare un boccone.
Per ciò che riguarda la pulizia, mi ha dato la sensazione che la stanza fosse stata usata poco e non pulita a fondo di recente, c'era un po' di polvere intorno alla vasca da bagno, ad esempio.
Nel complesso sono stata bene, ma lo avrei gradito di più se fosse stato più pulito.
