Frederico was fantastic to communicate and interact with. He kindly welcomed us and gave us valuable information about exploring Bologna. The home is comfortable and suitable for travelers who need a safe and quiet place to stay as they venture through all the tastes of Bologna. We found this eccentric (but divine!) restaurant on the same street at this home, just across the street and a few store fronts down and had such a fun evening meal (and lots of wine from the owner). It looks really odd, but please go there if you want an authentic Bologna meal and experience. We quickly ventured through the Bologna University area just during the day, and found the central area full of interesting things to see and definitely so MUCH to eat. Frederico was very accommodating to our travel times and just overall was so great to have met. There are a few stairs to climb to the apartment, but it's really not terrible and it's an interesting old building so it's what you would expect and keeps the experience authentic! A great experience for us.
