Hotel Details

Location

A 20-30 minute walk from Piazza Maggiore and Bologna's historic centre, with excellent public transport connections.
The property is located 2 km from La Macchina del Tempo and 3 km from MAMbo, in a quiet residential area. Bologna Central Station is about 3 km away, and Bologna Guglielmo Marconi Airport is 12 km from the property. The area is well served by buses and trams, making car-free access to the city centre straightforward. The Bologna San Vitale train station is within a 5-7 minute walk for regional connections. A large Lidl supermarket is 100 metres away for supplies.

Accommodation

Simple, clean rooms with private bathrooms, walk-in showers, and essential furniture: desk, wardrobe, TV, and a view of the inner courtyard.
Rooms range from single to quadruple, with standard Italian single beds (80x190 cm). Each room has a private bathroom with a walk-in shower, bidet, and hairdryer. All rooms feature a tiled floor, heating, and an inner courtyard view. The quadruple room includes a kitchenette with a stovetop and kitchenware. Rooms are minimal and functional - designed for short stays where the main focus is on exploring the city. The building is an old monastery converted into student accommodation, so rooms are basic and may feel dated. For a quieter stay, avoid rooms near common areas or the ground floor.

Dining

A shared kitchen is available on each floor for self-catering.
The shared kitchen is equipped with basic cookware and utensils, a stovetop, microwave, and fridge. Use of the kitchen allows guests to prepare their own meals. There are vending machines on site for drinks and snacks. Numerous restaurants and pizzerias are within a 0.5 km walk, including Antico Borgo, Wolf, Pizzeria I Tramp's, La Baracca, and Osteria Becco di Legno. A Lidl supermarket is 100 metres away for groceries.

Wellness and Leisure

Free live sport events are broadcast and table tennis is available on site.
The property provides a table tennis table and broadcasts live sport events free of charge. The garden and picnic area offer outdoor space for relaxation. Board games and puzzles are also available for guests. The outdoor play area is suitable for children.

    Use the online check-in process and pay the tourist tax in advance if you plan to arrive after 17:30, as the reception is not staffed 24/7.
