We had a wonderful time staying in Eli's apartment in Bologna! Both the place and the hosting experience were fabulous and we would definitely recommend it to anyone visiting the city. The apartment was open and spacious, in a quiet and safe location, and had beautiful views of the neighborhood (catch the sunsets out the living room window!) Eli provides very clear and detailed instructions for everything you could need (logistics in the apartment, nearby grocery stores, taxi services, etc.) and also has a packet with AMAZING food/bar/gelato recommendations for all around Bologna, as well as suggestions for sightseeing and shopping. The apartment was about a 15-min. stroll to the main Piazza Maggiore area, with lots of little shops and eateries on the way, and is also very close to the public gardens. Eli happened to be out of town when we were visiting, but arranged for a friend to show us around the place upon arrival and was readily accessible by email/Airbnb messaging if anything came up -- it was overall a great experience!
(For gelato, don't miss her neighborhood recommendations for Cremeria Santo Stefano and Sorbetto di Castiglione!)
