I cannot sufficiently describe how much I enjoyed my stay in Bologna and Irene’s attic apartment. This is my 5th trip to Italy and I finally decided to get off the tourist path a bit more. Bologna is absolutely wonderful; it is now my favorite city in Italy. The food is amazing and there is an energy like no other place in the world, in my opinion. Irene’s apartment is right in the middle of the University Zone, just steps from Piazza Verdi which is the heart of the university nightlife. It is also a short walk to the Centre Storico, which I believe is the most underrated old town in all of Italy. Yet, even though you are steps from the action, Irene’s apartment is tucked away and private. It has all of the comforts and resources that you need to have an enjoyable trip. There are a few staircases up to the attic and a few different doors/keys to go through, but that is no problem if you are able-bodied. For the value, I believe that this AirBnB is perhaps the best I’ve ever stayed in. I give Irene’s apartment my highest recommendation. 10/10 and I definitely plan to return to Bologna next summer and stay here again. Thank you for a wonderful stay!
