This is the 2nd time I've stayed at Davide's apartment for long stays (one month and again over 2 weeks), and it truly feels like home. The apartment is perfect in every way (and has the best shower in Bologna) and literally everything you need it at your doorstep - grocery, restaurants, bars, tabacchi, and bus to/from the train station. I also HIGHLY recommend eating at L'Emporio - a very
"local" bistro on the corder of Via d'Azeglio and Via Marsili, open 11 to 11. That's also my home away from home - Slow Food - their vendors are very intentional, best carpaccio ANYWHERE. Between Davide's place and L'Emporio, you will never want to leave Bologna!
