Mansarda Teatro Duse is an excellent place to stay for visiting Bologna, close to everything you need and want to see. The apartment is huge, very clean, well equipped and very tastefully restored. While we did not meet Nicoletta in person, she was always available via phone/email and provided us with everything we needed, even with a basic breakfast (Prosecco, toast, butter, marmalade etc.). After our late arrival, we had a wonderful dinner in the restaurant downstairs where we picked up the keys. As our flight was delayed, the staff even waited for us and expanded working hours.

On both nights of our stay there was some party going on nearby, so we had quite some noise in the evenings. But it always ended around midnight, so I doubt it is a regular club and others might not have the same experience. It did not bother us at all.

In case we return to Bologna some day we would definitively choose Nicoletta's place again!

Please note: you have to climb some stairs, there is a spiral staircase in the flat that is not really ideal for small kids or toddlers.
