"Niente... mi dispiace doverlo dire, ma è stata un’esperienza davvero spiacevole: il materasso era talmente vecchio e deformato da rendere impossibile dormire. Nel 2025, non mi aspettavo certo di trovare una sistemazione con un letto in quelle condizioni, pieno di affossamenti e scomodo al punto da rovinare il soggiorno. Sinceramente, è inaccettabile offrire un simile livello di qualità ai propri ospiti. Peccato, perché sarebbe bastato poco per rendere l’esperienza migliore. "

"Everything was perfect. The location is simply wonderful: right in the historic center of Ferrara. The room was very clean, and the air conditioning worked very well. We were just disappointed to learn at check-in that the hotel had only four parking spaces and that they needed to be reserved in advance. We would have preferred to know this beforehand, as it was one of the reasons we chose this hotel. However, they made us pay 7€ for 24hours of park on street parking places and they edited the parking ticket for us. Breakfast was good! Thank you so much for the stay!"

"Very nice hotel. Honestly speaking it looks amazing on pics but is different in real life. Not much, but still different. Nevertheless, it is very nice hotel and personnel. Breakfast could be improved a bit to add more variety of food. Rooms are not brand new and have some signs of age, but it is very old construction building and such things including the size of the shower room are small because of this reason. The neighborhood is quite and safe. Very close to Ferrara historic center."
