We stayed for two weeks in the Elena’s apartment in Bologna, in February 2015. Our experience was absolutely positive. We were satisfied with both the arrangements and the apartment itself.

Elena is a trustworthy, friendly and intelligent host. She acquainted us systematically to all that we had to know and guided in using technology of the apartment. She also secured precisely e.g. that internet connection worked efficiently. She even gave tips for our program and gave us lot of information she could see useful for us. We knew that whenever we would need we could contact her.

The location of the apartment is very central, perfect for those who like to hang around the city, to visit museums and other attractions, or travelling more widely in the area. The distance between the main university quarter is just 10-15 minutes walking.

The apartment was very clean, cozy and comfort. It consists smaller bedroom, that can also be used as living room, large bedroom with a perfect worktable, kitchen and bathroom. We would recommend the apartment for 2-3 (even 4) persons.

The beds were absolutely comfortable and of high standard. There are enough lamps for lighting, the issue that is often forgotten in this type of apartments. There were also very good selection of cleaning equipment for keeping home comfortable – also necessary, especially when you stay a longer time.

In our first week it happened to snow and it was colder weather than it usually is expected in Bologna. Despite of this surprising cold period the heating system (it works with gas) worked absolutely properly.

Bologna is the capital of food in Italy, and naturally we wanted to have some experiences in local restaurants, which are easy to reach in university area or in 10 minutes walking towards Piazza Maggiore. However, we wanted mainly cook at home. Elena’s kitchen had everything we could expect. It is modern and well equipped, and as spacious, that we could also eat there at the nice big table and modern furniture.

It was a positive surprise that there was even Scandinavian style cupboard! Rather new, clean and nice kettles and frying pans make cooking easy. Also all other tableware was beautiful and comfort to use.

There is Bosch-dishwasher (we did not need it), efficient gas cooker, practical small oven, washing machine, fridge and deep freezer. There was not any micro oven but we did not miss it either. There are several cupboards in the apartment, so it is easy to keep all your things in order.

The bathroom is worth of praising, because it was such a beautiful, practical and spacious room. Everything you need are at your fingertips and enjoyable in use. It seems been recently renovated (as the apartment in its entirety). That’s why it is also easy to keep clean and comfort. As to towels, they were very good quality and selection, good hotel standard.

We like thank you, Elena, you made our staying safe, cozy and enjoyable!
