Gabriele and his "Panoramica Loggia" made our stay in Bologna an absolute delight. The apartment is exactly as pictured--tidy, comfortable, light-filled, and well-appointed--and the view is just lovely. What Gabriele didn't mention in his listing is that the terrace also overlooks Bologna's music conservatory, so throughout the day we were serenaded by the sounds of students practicing opera, piano, clarinet. Wonderful, especially for us music lovers. One note for light sleepers: You may want to bring earplugs because at night there's often loud music in the nearby Piazza Verdi (earplugs and closed windows helped us sleep just fine). Gabriele was the perfect host, providing a map and personal suggestions for places to eat (Da Tony--the best!) and answering all of our anxious tourist questions. Heroically, he even solved a minor crisis when street work caused the water to get shut off. We were so grateful for his hospitality and for having such a comfortable place to make our base in Bologna.
