The apartment is in a very good location for exploring Bologna. It is close enough to Piazza Maggiore to walk there in 10 minutes, yet far enough away to avoid the crowds. We walked from the outside of the station in 20 minutes with our small suitcases with no problem... allow an extra 10 minutes to walk from the far side and the Marconi Express airport service.
The apartment is well equipped if you want to do some home cooking with small touches like olive oil and salt/pepper in the cupboard. In the bathroom the toiletries provided were top quality. There was no skimping on products for the washing machine and dishwasher which was appreciated.
Check in/out was easy with very good communication from Alessandra.
We enjoyed our 6 night stay in the city and one highlight was the walk from the apartment to the hilltop Sanctuary of San Luca along the covered Portico. A well known online map suggests that it takes just over an hour .... which is true but only on the downhill way back!
