Giulio warmly welcomed us to the apartment on arrival despite the fact that I had been sending SMS messages to his land line phone - when he saw my international number call he raced over from his work which is right near by.

The unit is in a great location, easy walking distance to the main square with all the shopping. Spacious and quiet with a little balcony to an internal void within the building - good for drying clothes.

On a hot night the air-conditioning was welcome and I did like the little coffee maker. We found that the internet worked fine most of the time.

Highly recommended as is a stay in Bologna.
