Four of us older adults (one couple and two singles) shared this spacious, clean and artfully designed top floor apartment in an historic building and convenient location in the heart of Bologna. There are excellent neighborhood restaurants, but if you want to prepare some of your own meals, the kitchen is contemporary and well-equipped (including a dish washer) and shopping is convenient with a daily farmers market in a nearby piazza where there are also shops selling fresh pasta and delicious baked goods. The hosts were gracious, readily available and extremely helpful in so many ways. This is a great way to experience this ancient but vibrant city!
