Our time in Bologna was wonderful and was due in large part because of our stay at Claudia's apartment. It is a great walking city. The location was perfect. Near the center of town. Scores of excellent restaurants nearby. Short walk to the train station. We had a car when we arrived in Bologna and Claudia allowed us to drop off our luggage ahead of checking in so that we could drop the car at airport without transporting our luggage. When we left on Sunday morning, she arranged for a taxi to pick us up and she helped us with our luggage. I think it was less than $20 and worth it. Claudia was full great suggestions that made our stay wonderful. Great local knowledge always helps. The apartment was as advertised. Clean, roomy, good bed, excellent WiFi, quiet and a good respite from the city's noise and activities. We took her suggestion and took the train to Ferrara nearby. Not packed with tourists like so many areas. A good trip. With out hesitation, I recommend Claudia's apartment for value and convenience.
