“This is a smart choice near Ferrara's attractions, especially for visitors mixing work with leisure; I appreciate the thought given to both, from the yoga studio to the well-equipped conference rooms. Its family-run atmosphere makes it feel more personal than its size suggests, and I think that counts for a lot.
