We had a wonderful stay in Bologna. The location was perfect - right off a busy, vibrant area but tucked away in a courtyard that felt private and safe. We spent every morning watching the sunrise from the small balcony facing east. The balcony was definitely a highlight of the property and a must for enjoying the ambience of the city.The building felt like a classical Bologna property, but the finishes were modern and very clean. Elena and Stefano were wonderful hosts and we highly recommend this property!

This apartment is in a fantastic location, away from the masses of tourists. Very quiet and private. The hosts are fabulous, and the apartment was spotlessly clean. This would be a great place for couples, or even a small family. Be advised there are several flights of stairs, but there is a very compact elevator in the building. The kitchen is well equipped if you want to cook at home. The clothes washing machine works great. Highly recommended!

What a great property in a perfect spot in Bologna. The hosts were amazing. They greeted us upon arrival, helped with our bags, gave us lots of sight seeing tips and even made dinner reservations for us! The apartment was perfect in every way. The beds were comfy, the kitchen well supplied, and the balcony was the perfect spot to enjoy a glass of wine at the end of the day or at the start of a fun night out.

This was the best stay we have ever had. The hosts were delightful and made sure we had everything we needed including restaurant recommendations and places to be sure to visit. It was a true comfort to know we had new friends to help us if we needed it! They even arranged for the cab to take us back to the train station. We can’t recommend this stay as anything less than perfect!

Beautiful Bologna! This apartment was perfect for our family of 4 with its cozy beds that had immaculate linens, AC, washer, full kitchen and a balcony that offered a window to the historical center. Our hosts were gracious and offered clear guides, amazing restaurant recommendations and offered to help if necessary with any of our questions. Wish we could of stayed longer-it was paradise!

Thank you for your visit, we are sorry to read this, it is the first time we have received this report. so we take this opportunity to better describe the area for future guests. We are located in the historic center "Al Pratello" (the origins of the discrict date back tu at least the year 1184) one of the oldest and liveliest neighborhoods in Bologna, full of bars, restaurants and trattorias. Despite this, the apartment inside a private courtyard is extremely sheltered from street noise, offering tranquility and at the same time experiencing the atmosphere of Bologna by moving just a few meters.We hope that Bologna has remained in your hearts!!!

Perfect Location and Delightful Hosts

If you want a quiet place in the historic center of Bologna you can’t do better. Stefano and Elena are always ready to help you, and the apartment is nicely updated. We spent many a morning out on the balcony which overlooks a quiet courtyard. You are minutes from Bologna’s central market and piazza, and many cafes and restaurants are even closer.

The apartment was spotlessly clean and the owners were very friendly and helpful. They gave us lots of advice and suggestions, which we used and enjoyed. Stefano and Elena went the extra mile to make our stay enjoyable, but they were never intrusive. We loved being in a authentic part of Bologna and felt like locals. We stayed for 13 nights and used Bologna as a base to visit Venice, Modena, Parma and Ravenna. The balcony was a lovely extra and we often had a coffee or a wine while looking at the roof tops.
