B&B La Stradetta, Bologna

Over rated. Location of the apartment was reasonable. We arrived during a warm perio and discovered the room had no aircon. We slept with the windows open. Unfortunately the surrounding area is very noisy all hours of the night so we were forced to close them until it became too warm again!! We then had an issue regarding the breakfast. We sat at the breakfast table with the host and after a minute she left. After 10 min passed it was clear we weren't going to get any breakfast!! We stayed 3 days and had only seen her on the one occasion. We left a note enquiring why it was advertised as a B&B when we weren't being offered breakfast.On the final day on checkout the issue was discussed and we were advised that this was an additional cost option that we had rejected on the website .This was not the case and at no stage were we offered this option at the venue. Sabrina is a very sweet hostess and speaks English well so we were not sure a misunderstanding was possible. We had sat at the table in the morning expectantly so one would assume that we were waiting for breakfast?? Sabrina did try to make good on the last day by offering us a breakfast but by that stage we were over it! Overall the venue is clean and neat but pricey for what is offered.

I was attending the Cosmoprof Bologna 2019 this March with my wife and we were surprised to learn that most hotels had already been booked months ahead. I settled on the B&B La Stradetta. This amazing B&B was located in a quite street in a nice neighborhood in the city center. Sabrina our host upon arriving made us feel at home in her wonderful and eclectic artist loft-apartment filled with art and calmness, right away we felt right at home. All the rooms were large, quite and super clean. Morning breakfast was simple but very good and healthy and Sabrina prepared some amazing scrambled eggs purchased directly from the farmers market, delicious !! Sabrina is easy to talk to and will go out of her way to make your stay the most enjoyable possible. She recommended some of her favorite restaurants and certainly enjoyed the hip market area where the market after closing becomes the local hang out with a variety of restaurants to be enjoyed, we just loved the Fish Market restaurant... fresh, delicious, cheap !!! But get there early if you want a seat. We will be returning next year and will definitely book in advance at La Stradetta and of course we look forward in seeing Sabrina again !!!
