Nice apartment with a big balcony in a quiet residential neighbourhood. I stayed here for a month (October 2017)
Grocery stores, bakery etc close by. Lots of bars and cafés on the main road a couple of blocks away. On this road there are also bus stops for the lines going into the city center. There's a train station 1 km away where you can catch a train to Florence, for example (without having to go to Bologna Centrale first).
A big Coop Supermarket is 700 m away, a nice little market hall (with cheese, meat, fish, bakery, vegetables and fruits etc) about 1 km away along the road into central Bologna. Wifi and washer in apartment worked fine.
