Hotel Tuscolano

Hotel is very basic and a lot more than we had thought, there are no tea/coffee facilities or room amenities such as hairdryer, iron etc. The bathroom was very small and the shower was simply a shower head above the toilet area and a shower curtain. There is no safe path upon leaving the hotel so we had to be careful of cars on the road and the nearest bus stop was around 15minute walk for me down a busy highway. We had to get a taxi once and the taxi driver thought that the hotel had been closed for some time as he never dropped anyone off and from the outside he thought it was closed. Rooms are very thin so we could hear other people banging and talking at 6am the first night which woke us up. Due to the national train strike, we weren't able to get back to the hotel on our second night of the booking until nearly 7am unbeknown to us . After having not slept for over 24 hours and been sat outside a train station for the best part of 8 hours as a disabled traveller, we had hoped for a little compassion and asked if we could check out later than 11am as we had a long day ahead travelling back home and three hours sleep just wasn't enough. I was told this simply wasn't possible as they were fully booked the following night. I understand it wasn't their fault but since I had already been told the cleaner wasn't starting until 1pm, it would have been a nice gesture to offer us the chance to get a little sleep and a later checkout (I offered to pay for a full extra night). Good points were that the room itself was clean enough when we got there and 24/7 hour checkout was helpful for late night arrivals.

This property is in a semi rural area far away from Bologna attractions. While the staff were very nice, I believes listed as a four star property when it was actually a two star. I would only recommend considering this if you have a car and are willing to drive a significant distance into town.
