I was initially a bit worried because old buildings can be a hit and miss sometimes, but once I saw the flat in person I was happily surprised. It retains the feel of the original building, but with thoroughly modern interiors. The location is also excellent: just 10-15 minutes walk from the station (useful for taxis that are hard to book in Bologna) and in the middle of the most lively part of the town with some amazing restaurants. Bonus points that while so central, it was also very quiet, as it's facing on a beautiful canal instead of a road.
