Massimo's flat was very comfortable and clean. I felt like I was at home. The location was perfect. If you want to travel like a local, you need to stay at Massimo's flat and walk around the neighbourhood. Just opposite the flat there was a family restaurant where we had the best dinner in Italy. His flat is located very close to the centre and tourist attractions but also distant from noisy crowd. You can walk to the centre in ten minutes. By taxi, the train station is ten minutes and the airport is 20 minutes away from the flat. The neighbourhood was great with a lot of small shops, restaurants and cafes around. Massimo made us comfortable and he was very kind even to leave some pastry for us in the room. Also his communication was excellent, he replied our texts and emails immediately. And the best thing is that he provided wi-fi connection with webpocket so we had Internet wherever we went in Bologna! If you want to live like a local in Bologna for a few days I will strongly recommend you Massimo's place.
