I am sooooo impressed with Andrea -- and his house was great, too! It started before I even booked. For professional reasons too complicated to go into on this review, I needed a whole apartment to stay in that had reliable Internet and a "fixed phone" (aka landline) that I could use an international calling card with to call the US multiple times throughout the weekend. Andrea said sure, he had that. AND THEN he checked it all carefully while we talked via Skype, just to give me peace of mind before I booked with him. And it all worked perfectly without a single hitch. Though he gave me some great recommendations for places to eat (yes, his girlfriend is a food blogger in the foodie capital of Italy!), I ended up working most the weekend and only managed to get to the corner pizza shop. But I did walk into the center of town, and it was a great, quick, energizing walk. For sure I'll stay there again next time I'm in Bologna!
