Just back from a great trip to Bologna. Francesco and Deborah were great hosts: they met us when we arrived and were very welcoming and helpful, giving us lots of great recommendations for restaurants, bars, markets and other sites; useful tips, and lots of interesting reading material about Bologna too. The apartment was immaculate and decorated with style and panache. It is also in a great central location - everything was in walking distance and the street itself is bustling and exciting, home to lots of great places to eat and drink. It really comes alive at night, but the apartment remains quiet, being a little set back from the street. We had a lovely time in Bologna, which is a fascinating city with lots to do, and also enjoyed excursions by train to Modena and Ravenna - the apartment is within walking distance of the train station and tickets were really reasonably priced to lots of other places too which were within easy reach. We simply didn't have time to do them all...
Overall, a super trip, a lovely city, elegant apartment and great hosts. Many thanks, Francesco and Deborah!
