We had read reviews before choosing Valeria's place, and we can say that we agree with those who felt it was "a home away from home," and that we would love to come back! Very comfortable in so many ways - a perfect jumping off point for all the smaller towns in Emilia Romanga (Parma, Reggio Emilia, Ravenna, etc!). We enjoyed the little local "holiday" market in the plaza on our doorstep - it gave the area a very happy holiday feeling in December. We also enjoyed local restaurants with the delicious spinach tortellini of this area. After a day trip out, walking back from the train station was like returning home - to a comfortable bed and pillows, with a great Delonghi coffee machine waiting to be used in the morning! Having a lift was a nice perk too! Valeria was very accommodating to us (finding convenient mutual times for meeting) as we had no cell phone for traveling, which can be slightly problematic when connecting with Air BnB hosts. Thank you Valeria!
