There are many wonderful reasons for visiting Bologna including it's strategic location, the quality of it's food and the friendliness of its people. If you intend on taking advantage of Bologna's strategic location, then Nina's apartment is an outstanding choice. From Bologna, it is possible to take the train to Modena, Parma, Ferrara, Ravenna, Florence and many other great destinations in under an hour. Other desirable locations, including Milan and Venice are reachable within 90 minutes. Nina’s apartment is located very close to the train station and is also a short walk to Piazza Maggiore at the center of Bologna. Despite it’s central location, the apartment is very quiet as it faces an internal courtyard. Staying here, you will enjoy the charm of living in an historic palazzo and all of the modern conveniences that come with a recently renovated kitchen and bathroom. Upon arrival, we found the apartment to be meticulously clean and very well stocked. In fact, it was probably the best stocked AirBnB apartment that we have stayed in. Relative to other similarly priced apartments, the living room may be on the smaller side and lack some natural light. But, we felt that these were not major issues and represented a fair trade off for the tranquility offered by the interior location of the apartment. Also, please note that the check-in process is contact-less. Nina will provide a link that will allow you to open the main door to the building (no key is provided). So, it is critical that you carry a cellphone with reliable service at all times.
