Top Bologna Hotel Reviews

Elizabeth Lifestyle Hotel

Elizabeth Lifestyle Hotel

8/10 Good
"The staff was very friendly and amazing upon arrival. They gave us good information as well as provided us with a map. The air-conditioning was nice and cool. The rooms stood tend to keep all of the loud volume away. The only unfortunate thing that we would have to say is that the breakfast was not up to par the coffee was served cold on another day. The water for the tea was cold as well. The water in general was never cold and the yogurt was a liquid concentration."
