Gabriella met us and welcomed us warmly. Her daughter was there to help with the language. We were delighted with the charm (as in the name!) of the place - artistically individual, comfortable, clean, good storage and more space than expected. A tiny courtyard let us sit outside.
It was ideal for us as the location was within the walls, very much part of the historic city and easy walking distance from the centre of Bologna. This meant we could return to the flat to recover from sightseeing etc, rest and then go out in the evening. The area felt safe and being a little side street was peaceful. Altogether staying here was very much part of the success of our wonderful Bologna visit. I hope we will come again.

Before we arrived I exchanged a few emails with Gabriella and was always answered helpfully and promptly.
