Michele's studio and his hospitality were the perfect combination for a month long stay in Bologna. His apartment is very comfortable, has great amenities, and is in a wonderful location to experience all Bologna has to offer! Instead of the frenetic bustle of a tourist neighborhood, the apartment is located in a true 'working'* neighborhood of the city. You can find many excellent authentic restaurants, gelaterias, and shops within a few minutes walk. I fell in love with Bologna, in part because Michele's apartment was my 'home' base. *One item I was happy to have with me during my stay was a set of earplugs for sleeping. The neighborhood, like all of Bologna, is vibrant and active. It's possible to hear street activity and neighbors coming and going at various hours.
