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 lovely double room, though I did notice the acoustics were off – I could hear footsteps from above quite clearly (not ideal when trying to sleep!). Despite that, the room was clean and beautifully maintained.

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.

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.

I had an interesting stay at Il Convento Dei Fiori Di Seta. The room I had was clean, comfortable, and well-decorated, contributing to a pleasant atmosphere. However, my experience was marred by significant issues with water pressure, which made my stay frustrating at times. The staff were friendly and accommodating, but the inability to shower properly really impacted my overall satisfaction. Overall, I appreciated the charm of the hotel, but I would have preferred a more consistent experience. 🌷🛏️
