Elena & Riccardo place is perfectly located, walking distance to the train station and to all points of interest within the center of Bologna. Elena left some pastries, which was a really nice touch, and check in with Riccardo was easy and friendly. There are some books and guides about the city in the apartment that can be helpful. The only small complaint is that the hot water is barely enough for two people to take a shower. Having said that, I would still stay there if I return to Bologna! Also note the the stove is induction and it requires a bit of reading to get it going. We only used it for coffee and it worked.
