Excellent location. Less than five minutes walk from the Piazza Maggiore and the surrounding shopping, restaurants and salumerias. A grocery store less than a block away. Walk to the train station is about 20 minutes, essentially flat terrain on a straight line from the apartment to the station. Neighborhood is fairly quiet.
Check in and communication was easy. Be aware, you’ll need to go up stairs to get to the apartment but they are easy to maneuver.
The apartment has air conditioning units (in all rooms except the kitchen), which is fantastic and not something you find everywhere. It took a little bit for the units to cool down the place (we were there during the heat wave, so that was not surprising) but once it happened it kept the place very comfortable.
Overall, Ludovico’s place is excellent and a great home base when visiting Bologna, and Bologna a great home base when visiting the Emilia Romagna region and beyond.
