Bed and Breakfast Dolce Vita Bologna

The place is well located in Bologna, close to the train station. The room we booked had a shared bathroom with the host. The host was not respecful, of us using the facilities that we paid for. Knocking on the door quite hard, while I was still in the bathroom. As well as restrictions on the airco use.

This is a cute cozy place downtown, owned by a charming Italian elderly woman. We had a pleasant one-night stay and gladly recommend the place!

Security of the building The bathroom was outside the room. And the linens were not to be changed, they felt like ; were used but not changed. And the breakfast was cake and cookies. Yes there was dog but no problem but in the night it weeped. The doors were no sound protection

Tiny walls(you can hear everything, even walking), breakfast can be improved(most of the things are too sweet)

The location was great. The owner kindly gave us a different room when we let her know that the bed in the first room was very uncomfortable. The entire place smelled of smoke. There’s no smoking in the rooms (which is fine with us as we dont smoke) but it does not apply to the owner, and she smoke quite a lot inside which extended to the common areas and rooms. We were unaware that “shared bathroom” meant sharing the bathroom of the owner and not the other guests. It was uncomfortable using the bathroom that had her towels, robes, and night gowns hanging, as well as all of her personal products.

Equal distance to train station and old center. Very walkable & safe. The woman was very friendly. Good cappuccino ! The rooms have a cute retro-kitsch feel , very personalized. Not great for a non-smoker. The hallway = breakfast area smelled strongly. The breakfast was mostly cheap shrink- wrapped cookies& sweet candy cereal. But fresh fruit in the fridge was a very nice touch. But totally fine for a short stop in this beautiful town

A lovely, homelike, cozy furnished place with all necessary facilities. Very clean (flip-flops not needed), comfortable and spacious. ? Great location and friendly staff! Highly recommend?

Although I could not see any heaters, the room temperature was perfectly adequate and comfortable, which is not the easy to come across in hotels in Italy in February. The location is also great - right next to the old city and 15 min walk from the train station. Quite clean. I know that personal tastes should not be commented on, but the style of decorating the rooms is quite questionable. The breakfast can be a little more diverse. The location should be non-smoking, but in the first evening someone smoked a lot and the smell of smoke was quite pungent in the room and all throughout the corridor.

We were greeted by an old lady with a dog.She didn't know a word of English and was unfriendly. She had no desire or patience to explain to us anything. The breakfast is NO BREAKFAST, its was just a cheap packaged single cookies and similar things Location only

The room was big and clean. The location was good as well. They don’t talk English, we did not understand the old lady. Additionally, we thought we will have our own private bathroom in our room, but it is on the hallway, so you need to get out of your room anyways, it can be used by anyone as well, it is disturbing and it should’ve been noted. Like the other people said, we smelled smoke sometimes, which was disturbing (also the noise of TV). Breakfast was ordinary, only packaged products.

The room was big and very clean. It's exactly as in the picture and for its price + locality, it is worth it. Everything worked fine. There was a minor blackout in the morning but it was fixed promptly. The other staff there was kind and friendly, and there was a cute dog. I think the owner could be friendlier and more hospitable. Perhaps don't talk bad about your clients in front of them. I'm non-Italian with not so good language skills, but my partner is and could clearly understand the owner complaining about us and how much we paid etc. We simply paid what Booking has asked and accepted the policies which included a free breakfast. If this is an issue, take it up with the site, not us. Although someone did apologise later for the rudeness, I am still mentioning here because it was the one thing that made us uncomfortable even when everything else was perfect.
