My friend and I had a great stay at this apartment and really enjoyed seeing Bologna. The listing looked exactly as it did in the pictures and was a comfortable stay. The kitchen is well equipped but unfortunately no salt/pepper/oil, so we did not cook as we did not want to buy these things and then have to throw them out.
We had a misunderstanding with the sofa bed, as there is no sofa bed. There is just one bed and then a sofa that someone can sleep on if they want.
The temperature was above 30°c on our stay and the apartment was very hot for us (coming from the UK) and there is no AC. On the first night we slept with the windows open, but it was still hot and there was a lot of noise from the neighbors throughout the middle of the night (people coming in and out noisily, talking outside our window, watching TV with their windows open). I messaged the host and they immediately arranged for us to get a fan delivered. The cool air and noise from the fan helped improve the temperature and drown out any noise, so we slept well after this.
Communication was always very fast and the hosts were great at solving any issues. My friend forgot her passport in the apartment after check out, and they were great at meeting us to return this.
The listing says you need to take out your trash, or they will charge for the service. There is mention of an emerald card to use one of the street bins, but we did not know where to find this. It was difficult for us to take the trash out as a result of this, so I would recommend getting clear information from the hosts about this.
Location was very good. The apartment is a half hour walk or 20min bus from the centre of Bologna. Busses were very frequent and easy to use, and there are a number of bus stops near the apartment. The neighborhood felt safe and was usually peaceful. There are some restaurants nearby, a bakery and some shops too.
Overall I would recommend this listing.
