Maria Teresa, her son Edoardo, and the Erasmus student staying with them were incredibly welcoming and helpful. We were warmly greeted (despite being late as our flight was delayed) with tea and cake, which was a wonderful first impression of Italian hospitality! Her son even took us on a tour of Bologna, recommended an amazing restaurant for dinner, and helped us find our way to the train station. The location was ideal; just a few minutes walk from la Piazza Maggiore. I couldn't have been happier!
