My four wonderful days in this great city were made possible in part by Enza and Enrico and their comfortable, well-situated apartment. The couple welcomed me as if I were a relative. On the morning of my first full day, Enrico walked w/ me straight to the city center, to Bologna’s noted towers, and to a café where we enjoyed cappuccinos. His purpose was to show how easy, direct and comparatively short is the walk from the apartment to the center, but his company was pleasant in itself. The apartment, meanwhile, has a good wi-fi connection. The shared bathroom enjoys a strong shower flow. And the kitchen, with its stove, table and refrigerator, is at the guests’ disposal. The apartment is easy to get to from the airport — simply take the “Aeroporto” bus from outside the terminal to the Ospedale Maggiore stop, roughly half a mile from the apartment. (Be sure to ask the driver to indicate the stop; there’s no other way to know it.) If you don’t have much luggage, it’s an easy walk to Enza’s. Otherwise there’s a city bus that will take you two stops and you’re almost inside the building. Enza was in the apartment to buzz me in when I rang the bell, making for an easy introduction.
