The pix do not tell the full story! The apartment is more spacious than the pictures show. Very comfortable, good light and everything you need for an extended stay. Reasonably quiet (it is the city), very convenient to public transport so the twin towers are a short 5 minute bus ride or pleasant 20 minute walk. Bologna Centrale is about 10 minutes easy walk with luggage.
Lino was great to deal with and Alex looked after us well at checkin.
The neighbourhood was great. Slightly grungy but think Brunswick if from Melbourne or Surry Hills in Sydney. A real neighbourhood with few tourists.
But some great restaurants, and several bars close by. Try La Serra, Vecchia Bottega and Fermento. And you can’t go past Cuppl for the morning coffee and excellent pastries - well we couldn’t! A terrific mercato is just a 100 metres away with several good macelleria (try Bottega dalle Carne down the end), several good fruit and vegie places. The cheese and yoghurt makers stall, fruit juice stall, fish and a couple of wine bars plus gelateria complete the picture. A large PAM supermarket is also 5 minutes walk.
Best gelati is straight over the road from the front door so maximum temptation. As good as Funivia.
Plus lots of plants which make the apartment very pleasant to come home to. And a lift!
Would be happy to return. Grazie 1000 Lino!
