“B&B Villa Rivabella evokes the feel of a private Italian home, simple and intimate. The location, while outside Bologna's ZTL, requires a bit of a walk to reach the city center, but the quiet offers its own reward. I think the little touches, like in-room espresso machines and provided snacks, enhance the experience without pretense.”
