My stay at Il Convento Dei Fiori Di Seta was a blend of positive aspects and significant drawbacks. The location was excellent for exploring Bologna, and my room was clean and beautifully designed, though I experienced significant issues with the water pressure that hampered my stay. Breakfast was convenient but could have had more variety and consistency in quality.

Breakfast was served in my room, which was a nice touch. For the first morning, I had scrambled eggs and bacon that I found quite hard, but the croissants on another day were better. I wished for a more varied menu.

The hotel featured good amenities, but the water pressure issue was a serious flaw that affected my overall experience. I did enjoy the tea and coffee making facilities, though only paper cups were provided.

Il Convento Dei Fiori Di Seta had a cozy, homey feel, making it perfect for those looking for a less touristy spot in Bologna. However, I faced continuous water pressure issues that somewhat marred my experience. Despite these challenges, the staff's attentiveness and the hotel's atmosphere contributed positively to my stay.

I had a mixed experience at Il Convento Dei Fiori Di Seta. The hotel has a charming vibe and lovely staff, but there were significant issues with water pressure in the shower that made my stay frustrating. The comfortable bedding and quaint atmosphere helped, but the basic amenities were lacking, especially for a hotel of this rating.

The location was decent, about a 15-minute walk to central attractions, which I liked. It's in a quieter part of town, perfect for getting a feel of local life, but it could be a bit grubby nearby.

Breakfast was served in my room, which was convenient, but the quality varied. My scrambled eggs were burnt, although the croissants were alright. I wish there were more breakfast options or just better execution.

While the atmosphere was cozy and the design charming, the lack of functional shower facilities really brought down the overall experience. If the basics aren't addressed, it tarnishes the charm.
