This is a really great located apartment with loads of local restaurants and bars near by yet within walking distance of everything on wants to see in Bologna including the train station if you want to do day trips (though I'd take a taxi if you are coming in by train and have significant baggage - It's not that close lol). The pictures do the apartment justice and Nicola is a wonderful host, responsive and incredibly helpful. My only critique has nothing to do with anything Nicola can control. This is a first floor, street side apartment. There is lots of walking traffic with talking through the night. If you are a light sleeper that might be an issue. On the other hand, no lugging bags ups stairs!
