We had a fantastic stay in Mattia's apartment. It was wonderful to return to such a clean, quiet cool space, after spending the day in the heat and the wonderful hustle and bustle of Bologna and surrounding area. We loved the city...(even preferred it to Florence!!!) Great to learn about the history of the old town, and Mattia apartment is in the perfect place to do so. Please note the problem we had though is the ZTL area from 8 am to 8 pm. You can not drive into the city in the zoned area. So dropping off suitcases and collecting them, when you are a novice needs some organising!! 100% recommend Mattia's place.
