Fabio is a fabulous host and a wonderful, person. We loved to spend time with him but unfortunately we were there for a very short time, from ten in the evening to ten in the morning, and were unable to make to most of our stay.
Fabio´s home is very comfortable and beautiful. Fabio makes gorgeous breakfast which is a feast for the eyes and tastes really good (lots of fruits and sweet bread but with no yoghurt, which would have been perfect along with the sweetness). Simply put, his home is good for the soul. The bed was very comfortable. All the most important things are just right and staying there is highly recommended.
It almost feels wrong to find faults but there were a few minor drawbacks that I would like to pont out. The flat is quite high without an elevator. It is important if you have a lot of luggage or have difficulty climbing many stairs. We had a lot and my wife was recently hospitalized so we had to take it gently. Another thing: It was not possible to keep the luggage for a couple of hours after check-out. There were some other guests arriving at eleven and the place was small so it was inderstandable but the description on airbnb indicated clearly that it was possible to keep the luggsge. That was a minor disappointment but we managed to change our plans. Instead of walking around Bologna for an hour or two we decided to head straight to the train station, which is very close by, and headed to the next town. We had to be there soon anyway. We will explore Bologna properly next time (and almost certainly choose Fabios place). Finally (and I think this can easiily be fixed) his name is not on the doorbell. Not as "Fabio" as he is introduced on airbnb but only with a family name and the initial (F). When arriving late, in the dark, like we did, we felt a bit unsure whether we were pressing the right button. I am sure it is possible to put the name Fabio next to the doorbell. But in short, with the above minor drawbacks, this is a great place to visit. Higly recommended.
