The stay was fantastic - the location was extremely central, the apartment was very well decorated, but everything seems pale in contrast to our brilliant host, who went out of her way to make our stay comfortable. She cooked meals for us, introduced the city to us, told us where to eat, helped us call a cab, was extremely flexible about check out - the list goes on. If you do get a chance to visit Bologna, stay at Lavern’s place; you won’t regret it.
