The flat is very clean, airy and bright and as lovely as the photos show. Tomoko and Matteo are very kind and always ready to help and advise about travelling in Bologna and the region in general. While location is not in the city centre, it is conveniently located by public transport, a 15-20 minute bus ride to centre or a 30 minute walk if you enjoy walking. There are several bars, a pizza joint and grocery immediately as you step out of the apartment. A pleasant stay at Matteo and Tomoko's despite the gruelling summer heat last week.
