The property is very convenient to the center and having internal parking allows you to use the car for moving around without worries. The economy room has everything necessary and is in line with the standard of the property. The coffee corner available to guests is wonderful. Congratulations on the management of the property. We will definitely return!

We returned to Udine bringing with us a beautiful memory of Ferrara, which we had never visited. Specifically, a lovely room and structure, clean and aesthetically pleasing; very kind, attentive, and super helpful host; perfect location to visit the main points of the city on foot, although next time, because I believe we will return, we will bring two bicycles because the city can be easily explored by bike and everyone makes wide use of it (we didn't know that) and it is very useful if you have little time to visit the beauties of the place, saving time. There are many great little places to eat, snack, have an aperitif, and enjoy a good cocktail and good music in the evening. The people of Ferrara are very nice and friendly!

Beautiful renovated building equipped with every comfort. The room is pleasantly furnished and quite spacious. A downside is the soundproofing because at 6 o'clock on Sunday morning one cannot hear a man talking who is above your room as if he were in front of you, not to mention his wife's heels that went up and down incessantly for half an hour. The location of the building is very close to the center.

Nice, new, comfortable structure in a great location. Communication was always quick and good, and the person I exchanged messages with was very kind. It would be convenient to have a mini-fridge, especially in summer. The only downside: breakfast (which is served in bars that are not part of the structure) is to be avoided. Rude staff, they treated us with a lot of condescension when we said we had a voucher; they brought me the savory item (which was pure lard, unpleasant as well as the coffee) and didn't want to change it because “it wouldn’t have been serious”; all the tables had a normal glass of water with the coffee, while we had a small coffee cup. When I went back to the counter to ask if it was possible to get something else, the guy told me that we were already at € 9.80 and we couldn't have anything else. Now, I live in the center of Florence and I have never paid € 10 for 1 coffee, 1 cappuccino, 1 croissant, and 1 savory item. Even more strange if it is a affiliated place. But it was the attitude of the two gentlemen at the bar that really made us start the day badly.

Well-maintained structure, excellent location close to the historic center, very convenient parking inside the structure, quiet and well-organized site. If we want to find a small flaw, for the paid breakfast the procedures are not clearly indicated (it's not a buffet). In any case, highly recommended.

Two-night stay. We had a really good time! Reserved parking, spacious, clean and tidy room. The hotel overlooks a quiet and lightly trafficked street. No external noise (our room faced, among other things, the inner garden). Very modern bathroom, perfect sanitary ware and sink, superb shower. 400 meters from the Estensi Castle and therefore right in the city center. Perfect and immediate online welcome and hospitality; the comfort room was a nice surprise. If you go to Ferrara and stay here, you make an excellent choice.

Air conditioning already on upon arrival in the room, laptop-sized safe, well-organized space for luggage and clothes. Extremely quiet structure. All formalities are quickly dealt with at the self-service kiosk, even though the owner is always available for any needs. The only room for improvement is the presence of a minibar.

The structure is excellently positioned, impeccable organization! The possibility of an internal parking for cars is really a gem, given the central location. One small note: all noises coming from the street were heard, including the voices of passers-by. Some measures should be taken to better isolate the windows. Anyway, I would definitely come back.

B&B very well located, close to the center of Ferrara. The check-in is very easy digitally, with parking included, great!! The room is spacious, tastefully decorated. There is an area with coffee, tea, cookies, fruit,... free, 24 hours. Definitely, I would repeat, and I recommend it!!!!

The host Euro is always available via WhatsApp. Alkimia Smart Rooms offers a welcoming, comfortable, and safe environment (and is located right in the center). We will definitely come back.

Stanza molto bella e ottima posizione. Personale gentile ma invadente (irrompe in stanza senza bussare alle 9h22 con check out alle 11h00, poi si scusa). In effetti la chiave non era inserita nella porta perché la mia ragazza era uscita, mentre io ero rimasto in stanza. Ad ogni modo, NON SI CAPISCE PERCHÉ IL PERSONALE DEBBA IRROMPERE IN STANZA SENZA BUSSARE 1H E 40 MINUTI PRIMA DEL CHECK OUT. Per la colazione purtroppo abbiamo pagato senza consumarla al bar conenvenzionato, perché pare che tale modalità per la colazione fosse scritta da qualche parte nella conferma di prenotazione, e ci è sfuggita.

stayed from 12/16/2023 to 12/17/2023

The answer from the host:
Buongiorno Sig. Fabio, grazie per la sua recensione, però lei è in errore su entrambi punti che ha descritto, In tutta la struttura abbiamo gli accessi domotici, con la chiave magnetica, se la chiave è inserita nell'alloggiamento il personale NON può entrare in camera, lei non aveva inserito la chiave e sul display esterno la camera risultava libera. Il secondo punto, la colazione, prenotando la colazione doveva recarsi alla pasticceria convenzionata per consumarla (come riportato sul suo voucher), lei invece si è recato nella Relax Zone che è un ambiente totalmente gratuito, dove NON si fa la colazione.

The answer from the host:
Buonasera Sig. Sergio, come descritto la colazione è organizzata in questo modo: Colazione all’italiana: disponibile presso queste location raggiungibili in due minuti a piedi: BAR PASTICCERIA ARIOSTO Piazza Ariostea 13 dalle 6:30 -- CAFFE’ DEI DIAMANTI Corso Ercole I°d’Este 19a all’interno del Palazzo dei Diamanti dalle 7:15 -- BAR JOLLY Via Palestro 109 dalle 7:30 Al ritiro della tessera, verranno emessi i buoni colazione del valore di 5€, da consegnare al bar prima di ordinare. Va da se che se consuma più del valore del buono deve pagare la differenza. Buona serata.

I liked this accommodation for various reasons: the location that allowed us to reach the historical attractions of the city on foot (and there are many); the convenient parking inside the property; the very well-decorated room, with a large and comfortable bed, a table and a large wardrobe, and a new bathroom with a shower and quality accessories. Additionally, the room had perfect soundproofing and a magnificent ceiling with original wooden beams. There was the possibility to completely darken the room and the air conditioning was efficient and silent. All rooms were on the ground floor. The manager was helpful in changing the pillows upon our request to have thinner ones. The access and payment system was completely digital and efficient. Breakfast, consisting of coffee and croissant, could be enjoyed with vouchers valid at three different bars nearby. I highly recommend this accommodation.

With Mr. Euro, the owner, we couldn't meet, but due to the level of automation in the structure, it is not necessary at all. However, from our conversation with him on the phone, it's as if his invisible presence had gently accompanied us throughout the very pleasant stay.

Buonasera Fabio, grazie per la sua recensione, vorrei specificare che le camere sono al piano terra, al primo piano e appartamenti al secondo piano, che affacciano sulla strada o nel cortile interno alla struttura. Tra le proposte che le sono state date ha scelto la camera Standard più economica al piano terra! La colazione dopo il covid, è opzionale, e gestita, tramite un buono colazione di 5€ in una pasticceria a due minuti a piedi dalla struttura, quando ha prenotato le è stato presentato tutto in maniera chiara. Grazie e buona serata.

The structure is very beautiful and welcoming, also very clean and comfortable. Its central location is ideal if you want to move around on foot. We came to Ferrara with an 18-month-old baby and the room was perfect for our needs; spacious, bright, well-kept. The smart management of check-in and check-out also works very well because it is supported by the owner of the b&b, very kind and friendly. I recommend it to everyone, even to those with small children.
