This is a superb location - it simply could not be more central in a city which is wonderfully easy to walk around and find your way to everywhere - helped by the useful map left out for us in the flat, and by Francesca's suggestions for restaurants etc during the check-in process which, by the way, was very easy and efficient. The only downside of the location, and it was pretty significant on Saturday night particularly, is noise from the street below. There is lots of traffic (although not on Saturday and Sunday when the big central Bologna roads are pedestrianised - bliss!) but especially all the revellers of Bologna out a Saturday night - the charm of hearing so much fun and laughter when you get in from your own gorgeous dinner palls somewhat at 2am ... even more at 4am .... and especially when it only goes quiet at 6am! Notwithstanding all that, we had a fantastic weekend in this great apartment, which never seemed to be more than 20 minutes' walk away from where we wanted to be - fab!
