Great availability of the owner. The sweet and savory breakfast is well cared for and the coffee prepared with the moka is excellent, just like at home! An environment with great personality.

We spent a perfect overnight stay with a delicious Italian breakfast. The city center is a 10-minute walk away and is very nice. The owner is incredibly kind and helpful. And, our bikes could be in the garage. We recommend it to everyone.

Strategic and very quiet location, the property underwent a very well-kept and tasteful restoration that gave us a very pleasant stay. A note of praise to the owner who was caring and attentive to every detail, also providing valuable advice on places to visit and food. Highly recommended for visiting Ferrara but also as a base for the surrounding areas.

Great location, easily accessible from the center, yet sufficiently distant to have peace and quiet. The owner is very helpful in giving tips and very meticulous. We really liked it and we recommend it.

We stayed for three nights at this beautiful, very elegant and extremely clean bed and breakfast. Both the room and the bathroom are spacious, equipped with all comforts. The bed and breakfast is in an excellent location to reach the city center with a pleasant 10-minute walk. Excellent welcome. The owner, Mr. Gianluigi, is a truly exceptional person, very kind and extremely helpful, while remaining extremely discreet. Always ready to provide useful advice on how and what to visit in the city and on quality restaurants or pastry shops. The breakfasts are plentiful and unforgettable, enlivened by pleasant chats with Mr. Gianluigi. Highly recommended. Rating 10.

Recommendation: go there without fear. 10-15 minutes walk from the city center. Quiet neighborhood, little traffic. From the train station, bus 2, Ghisiglieri stop. 1 minute from the entrance. And above all there is Gianluigi. Affable, a skilled tour guide and historian, helpful and who pampers you at breakfast. 2 days and 3 perfect nights.

Absolutely one of our best experiences in bed and breakfast in recent years. Mr. Gianluigi has been extremely caring since our phone contact, until we said goodbye. He was caring and very welcoming: he is a person with an exquisite way of interacting with people. The structure is delightfully cared for in every detail and, even this, allows the guest to feel immediately at ease. The decor is not obvious and I noticed that a great taste has been cleverly used even regarding the lighting of all the areas enjoyed by the guests. The room appeared delightfully welcoming to us: a very comfortable bed with a soft and warm blanket that was a real treat! Sheets of very beautiful quality, not the usual ones from industrial laundry, which alone are a plus. All the spaces and objects we had at our disposal were extremely clean and the air throughout the structure was clean and fresh, a detail that is not obvious and not always appreciable in many structures. Breakfast is served in a very familiar and spotlessly clean kitchen environment despite the many objects in the room that, however, increase its charm. The mise en place is pleasant and has a slight taste of the antique with unhemmed linen placemats that seem to come out of a home decor magazine also for the matching with the tableware: very simple but beautiful overall. Breakfast is very rich, Gianluigi really offers a lot of stuff! Our impression of this bed and breakfast is truly excellent and, if we return to visit Ferrara, it will be a pleasure for us to stay there again! Congratulations! Marilena and Alessandro, Parma.

Staying here was extremely pleasant and comfortable. Everything, from Gianluigi's welcome to the individual spaces of the accommodation, is managed with care and taste. Gianluigi can recommend quality places, making you love Ferrara even before visiting it. It is also impossible not to appreciate the strategic location of the b&b. To be kept as a reference point for other stays in Ferrara.

Gianluigi is an exceptional host. He picked us up by car at the train station and brought us back on time when we left. During our two days in Ferrara, he was very attentive. He served us delicious breakfasts. His house is very comfortable and tastefully furnished. In short, a stay we will remember.

We stayed one night at this property that truly lacks nothing, starting from the traditional exposed brick facade, a distinctive feature of Ferrarese houses: the discreet and caring courtesy of the owner, Mr. Gianluigi, introduced us to a room with a ceiling with exposed wooden beams, very quiet, not large but equipped with every comfort and a spacious and efficient bathroom; breakfast, served in the charming ground floor kitchen, offers a wide choice of drinks and sweets. Located in a slightly off-center and therefore very quiet position, the B&B Ada is a walk away from both the center and the walls. Highly recommended.

francesca

The house is very beautiful, the rooms are spacious and elegant, the breakfast is excellent and abundant. Close to the center, which can be reached on foot in a few minutes, and close to the magnificent Archaeological Museum of Ferrara, which preserves very interesting artifacts from the ancient city of Spina. The owner Gianluigi is very kind and helpful. He provided us with useful information and made us feel like we were at home.

The homeowners are uniquely kind and attentive to the needs of the guests and above all very helpful. The breakfast is superb, rich and varied. In short, we felt right at home. I gave them all 10, well deserved. Thank you Mr. Gianluigi & Mrs., we will be back soon!

Yes, indeed we stayed from the 20th to the 22nd of September. We spent three nights in this splendid Bed and Breakfast. The owner (Mr. Gianluigi) was incredibly kind and helpful. Customer care, grace, and taste in the choices related to the structure made our stay truly pleasant. The structure, well renovated and very clean, is very close to the center (less than 15 minutes from the castle) - very close to excellent restaurants. I don't give a perfect 10 only for one thing that certainly doesn't depend on the structure itself; unfortunately, despite there being plenty of free parking nearby, it's not always easy to find a spot, but Gianluigi takes care of reserving a spot.

We spent two nights in this splendid Bed & Breakfast, the owners are of an impressive kindness and availability. Attention to the customer, grace, and taste in the choices related to the structure, made our stay truly delightful. We will certainly be back soon. Additionally: - very close to the center (less than 15 minutes from the castle) - very close to excellent restaurants. I don't give it a full 10 only for one thing that certainly does not depend on the structure itself, unfortunately, as much free parking is available in the immediate vicinity, it is not always easy to find. A minor issue compared to everything else in the experience that we hope to repeat soon.

What can I say, a truly unique stay. The dedication of Gianluigi, supported by Iole, taking care of his guests, deserves a ten out of ten! Available to provide information and suggestions even before arrival, present and full of attentions during our stay, while maintaining extreme discretion. The structure, a typical Ferrarese house, is elegant and welcoming, tastefully furnished and embellished with delightful ceramic objects. Sumptuous breakfast rich in specialties of traditional Ferrarese pastry, always different and very fresh every morning. Also appreciated the opportunity to use the bicycles provided by the B&B to discover the city from a different perspective and appreciate its livability. Guaranteed atmosphere, only one warning, you will feel nostalgic.

Superlative! Quiet and strategic location from which you can reach the historic center on foot in 10 minutes and, alternatively, the Montagnone Park where the majestic green belt of the monumental ramparts begins. The room, meticulously cared for in every detail, envelops in a precious silence with its impeccable loveliness, supported by brand new services with surgical hygiene. The welcome from Iole and Gianluigi is of a familiar type, like being guests of rediscovered friends. Very well-kept and generous breakfast, open to a variety of tastes. A stay of sensitivity, cordiality, and availability.
