Luigi is an amazing host! Despite the fact that we arrived at midnight, check in went smoothly. He gave us lots of tips about the city. Check out was at 11:00 and he gave us an opportunity to leave the luggage at his place. He was really thoughtful and helpful.
Even though the apartment is not in the centre, Bologna is not a big city, so you can get to the centre in less than 30 minutes.
Lidl is also nearby (10 minutes walk).
