Lovely hotel, lovely pool, 1/2 hour from Bologna
Very nice hotel an easy half-hour drive to Bologna with lovely spacious classically decorated rooms, friendly service, a big refreshing pool set in lovely shady grounds, and a very good casual and convivial restaurant. The only deficit was the weak AC---which in the very hot August weather did not entirely cool the rooms at night even when set as low as possible. A fan helped, but there was only one, so our adult kids in the second room had a somewhat uncomfortable night. No AC was on in the public areas of the hotel, either, nor in the restaurant. It would have been nice to have been able to opt to stay cool in the indoor breakfast room, for example.....I did discover as we left one large vacant room in the basement, next to the parking garage, which seemed intended for use at business meetings though no business meetings were occurring, airconditioned to a blessedly cool termperature for no apparent reason. Why not cool a ***** space that guests could enjoy, instead?
