Description

The B&B is located 30 meters from the entrance of the Sant'Orsola Hospital, near the pavilions from 15 to 29, and offers very affordable rates for long stays. It consists of an independent apartment on the 1st floor of a historic building just outside the walls of the old town, recently completely renovated, isolated from the noise of the surrounding street and therefore very quiet and peaceful. The property has been fully furnished with new furniture. We have extensive experience with clients who visit the Sant'Orsola Hospital. The rooms can be arranged on request with a double bed or single beds, with the possibility of an additional third bed, and all have a private bathroom, TV, and air conditioning. The house has a convenient shared kitchen, where everything necessary for a quiet and private self-service breakfast is provided for guests, and it can also be used by guests independently for the preparation and consumption of meals. Guests are completely independent and there are no time constraints. The surrounding area has all the necessary services with parking available both nearby and in affiliated parking lots. The Massarenti Bed and Breakfast is also the ideal strategic solution for tourist stays or for study purposes due to its proximity to the university area and the city center (reachable on foot in less than 10 minutes), as well as for professional purposes: the Fair is only 2 km away.

Area Sant'Orsola

In an ideal location for anyone staying in Bologna for business, cultural or tourist reasons (the fair is only 2 kilometers away and the historic center, where the University and the major cultural and artistic attractions of the city are located, can be reached on foot in about 10 minutes).

Furthermore, the facility proves to be particularly functional for those who need to undergo therapies in day hospitals or assist patients at the Sant'Orsola Hospital (in front of the residence) or at the nearby "Villa Torri" and "Nigrisoli" Clinics.

What guests say

The property is highly valued for its excellent location, being very close to the Sant’Orsola Hospital and within easy reach of Bologna’s city center by foot or public transport. Guests consistently mention the cleanliness, friendly and helpful staff, and good value for money. Rooms are described as basic yet comfortable, with some equipped with kitchen facilities for independent meal preparation. Some reviews mention dated furnishings and an underwhelming breakfast, along with occasional difficulties meeting the host in person. Overall, the accommodation is quiet, well-equipped, and suitable for both medical visits and tourism.

Based on guest reviews. AI-generated.

The only thing I save is that it is in front of a hospital. For the rest, it does not match the pictures, is poorly maintained and the owner did not keep the agreements made.

stayed from 03/06/2025 to 03/08/2025

The answer from the host:
Salve le foto sono conformi e non capiamo a quali accordi si riferisca, abbiamo assecondato tutte le sue richieste. Non abbiamo una reception fissa per cui noi serviamo il cliente per appuntamento. I ritardi dei clienti cerchiamo di assecondare, non sempre è possibile. Ci dispiace molto che si sia trovata male. Ci dispiace che abbia messo degli 1, se può spiegarci meglio perchè così ci da modo di migliorare, se vuoi può contattarci e vedremo di offrirle un bonus per un'altra volta. Saluti.

I stayed for just one night, but I met a special person, Paolo, a "phenomenon" of kindness and courtesy.

Located just outside the door, it is about 1 kilometer from the Asinelli Towers, but 5 minutes from Sant'Orsola. Paolo, the manager, is very nice. The furniture is a bit outdated, but the spaces are good. The cleaning could be improved.

A structure complete with everything and welcoming, close to the center, but especially in front of the Sant'Orsola hospital. The manager is a very kind person always available to meet my needs.

alberta

I stayed in this facility and I must say that I had a great time. Although I did not meet the owner but only spoke to him on the phone, he seemed like a nice person and he finds a solution to your problem. I had to go to hospital pavilion 4 and he gave me the room right in front. I have to return and I will definitely stay there.

The room was small for a double and it was a triple. The furniture was dated, the bathroom was like a closet. I have never seen the manager.

A bit dated but it has been renovated enough. The location for the Policlinico is optimal. The linen and the structure are clean. Highly recommended, excellent value for money. Only drawback, it does not have POS availability. Cash payment.

Comfortable, clean rooms with everything you may need to spend your stay in total tranquility. The owner is a reliable, honest, and understanding person; The B&B is located in a quiet area and at the same time served by buses in every direction you may want to go. (No need to have your own car.) Next time I come back to Bologna, I will necessarily stay here because I felt really good. Best regards, Costantino.

loredana

I stayed at this property for three nights with my mother for the birth of a granddaughter. The apartment is small but comfortable, not humid and well-lit: kitchen at the entrance with 2 side rooms located on the first floor of a building in Massarenti Street. Clean sheets and towels, very hot water, comfortable mattresses, TV in the room, equipped kitchenette with 4 working burners and large fridge, these were the fundamental characteristics for our stay. It is well positioned with a bus stop near the house. The owner immediately proved to be a friendly and helpful person, always available by phone for any of our requests. I will contact the property for our next stay.

Friendly and helpful manager and the structure is very welcoming, clean, very close to the Sant'Orsola hospital and above all economical. If I were to return to Bologna, I would book again in this structure.

We had a good time, the room was very nice and clean, with a private bathroom. We thought we would stay on Massarenti Street but, for various reasons, we ended up having the room on Pelagio Palagi Street. Still very central, 10 minutes from Porta San Vitale, close to bus stops that lead to the station (also easily reachable on foot), so we could move in and out of Bologna with great ease. The apartment is close to the Coop, pharmacy, various dining places, and bars. Very nice and cozy house, with everything needed to prepare dinner or lunch independently (microwave, fridge, stove, dishes, etc). The only downside was the breakfast, not particularly abundant: once finished, the food was not adequately restocked and my boyfriend and I chose to have breakfast at the bar downstairs. For the rest, I will recommend it and, if I have the chance, I will return because the stay was very comfortable and the hosts were very helpful.

Modest but clean, friendly and nice manager. Very close to the hospital and 15 minutes walk to the center. The breakfast, even though I had to prepare it myself, was good with everything it included.

Small central kitchen and two double side rooms. Very cozy and well cleaned, warm in winter and quiet. Very close to Massarenti Sant'Orsola but also a few minutes from the center. I recommend it.

I had a great time both for the proximity to the hospital and the city center reachable on foot and for the availability and professionalism of the manager. A heartfelt thanks also to the very friendly collaborator.
