As numerous people have said before, M club de Luxe has many of the aspects of a lovely bed and breakfast. The location is optimal and the rooms are large and lovely and quiet, each outfitted with a private WiFi hostspot (at least ours was). Michael, the proprietor, was polite, but if you are looking for a B&B with a warm reception and gregarious hosts, this isn't it. As another guest said, Michael really acted as if he had preferred to be elsewhere.

This is really a shame, because the B&B offers good value for exploring the lovely city of Ravenna, and the B&B's facilities are top notch. It appeared that Michael had hired on a helper, and it seemed possible that she might eventually help provide warmth to the place.

Breakfast was average at best, and the accompanying "fashion runway" muzak was not appreciated.

I stayed at Club M in August but it's taken me a while to put my thoughts together. The building is the owner's mother's ancestral home that his father, an engineer, tastefully renovated and his mother, and interior designer, appointed beautifully. I stayed in the White Room which was large and lovely. Michael's father thought of everything: the windows on the roof close automatically when it starts to rain. The location is good. The breakfast was fine. When my TV didn't work, the owner's father came by first thing the next morning and fixed the remote.

But I was put off by the attitude of the owner, Michael. The evening before I left I discovered my train was departing at 7 am so that next morning I had to check out before breakfast. I knocked on the kitchen door where Michael and another person were preparing breakfast; he opened it and said "Yes?" No "Good Morning" -- and no smile.

I apologized for interrupting and explained why I had to check out now. Without a word he headed for the desk and processed my departure. Michael said nothing and frowned as he prepared the bill. I signed the receipt and when he handed it to me I said "Thank you" which were the only words spoken through the entire transaction. I would have hoped, at the least, for a "Have a good trip," "Thank you for staying here," or "Do you want to grab a piece of fruit for your train trip?" Nothing. He stood and walked back to the kitchen.

Running a B&B is more than great accommodations, it's hospitality and friendliness and graciousness which, based on my experience, were all wanting at Club M. Michael's father, on the other hand, is a lovely, warm and gregarious man who embodies the qualities of a stellar innkeeper.

The M Club is in a great location for exploring the old city of Ravenna. The building has a lot of character and our accomodations were very spacious consisting of a sitting area, a beautifully decorated bedroom and a very modern bathroom...all with remote controlled skylights and blinds. It was quiet at night, Michael was a good host, breakfast had a variety of choices....all in all we enjoyed our stay there very much and would highly recommend it.

The M Club de luxe b and b was a very nice place to stay while visiting Ravenna. We had the suite on the top floor which was spacious and comfortable. The bathroom was nice, newly renovated. Michael, the manager was helpful but you could tell he would rather be somewhere else. I enjoyed our stay here and recommend it if you're in the area. It was hard to find the old town of Ravenna but once we did the B&B was right at the gates with parking. The breakfast wasn't very good but the espresso was ok.
