Nicoletta is a fantastic host and you couldn't hope to stay in a better area. The apartment is close to lot of restaurants and coffee shops and is a two minute walk to the main streets and an easy ten minute walk to the train station. Nicoletta is happy to give suggestions of what to do and see in Bologna as well as which nearby towns are the best to visit. As a solo traveller I felt extremely safe walking in the area, even late at night. The terrace off the bedroom is the perfect spot to sit at anytime of the day or night. You truly feel like a local as you look over Bologna's rooftops and listen to life of the city below. If I return to Bologna I will definitely stay at Nicoletta's home again. Grazie per tutti Nicoletta.
