I can't say enough about how wonderful Gabriele's apartment was. We are a family of four and fit very comfortably; two slept on the fold out couch and two in the bedroom. Gabriele took care of every need and is the epitome of a gracious host with a perfectly appointed apartment. The patio is magnificent, and the continuous soft music and singing coming from the academy next door made us feel like we were living in a dream. The apartment is perfectly located no matter what you care to do in Bologna. You're in the heart of it all but have a quiet escape on the top floor. Our small kids even got used to the four story climb by the end of our stay! I recommend Gabriele and this apartment with my highest compliments!
