Went as a solo traveller to Bologna, and Riccardo's place complemented that perfectly. Very clean, cosy apartment just outside of the city centre. Plenty of close bus links, but the 15-20 minute walk to reach the Piazza Maggiore is well worth it as you encounter lots of great bars, cafes and restaurants along the way.
If travelling solo or as a couple Riccardo's place is perfect. Very quiet apartment block, with a pharmacy and 24hr mini market a stone's throw away. Riccardo was also very quick to answer any messages in my time.
The only draw back and it's me being very picky, is because the apartment is situated downstairs there is very little natural light.
