We stayed at Antonio's place for a month. Overall a great Airbnb!
PROS:
- Great location. You can walk to most places in the city in 15-30 minutes, usually on flat paved surfaces covered with the amazing porticos that are all throughout Bologna. Close to restaurants, a block away from a grocery store, and a block away from some of our favorite gelato in Bologna (Costa 39). The bus system is also very reliable and just a two minute walk away from the apartment.
- Antonio is a great host. He was there to greet us upon our arrival and was always very prompt in his communication with us. He told us places to see, restaurants to try, and areas of town to avoid.
- This apartment is CLEAN. Not always easy to find.
CONS:
- The major con for this Airbnb was the airconditioning (or lack thereof). The listing showed "air conditioning" as one of the amenities, which is why we selected this particular listing for a month-long stay in August, but we were disappointed to see that the AC unit is in the smaller fo the two bedrooms, and even when it's on at full blast the AC only really cools the room. Our son slept very comfortably for our month-long stay while we were very hot every night, sleeping with fans and the windows open trying to cool down. If you're visiting during another time in the year it probably won't be an issue, but for this reason, we wouldn't come back here in summer.
Overall a grerat bnb in one of my favorite cities and for a very reasonable price.
