What a lucky find Eliana's apartment was! I booked this trip somewhat last minute, so I wasn't sure what to expect. I needn't have worried. From the moment I booked, Eliana made an effort to make my trip to Bologna as pleasant and easy as she could, sending recommendations, tips on how to get to the apartment, where to eat, what to see. She and her assistant, Adiva, were also very fast in communicating any time I had a question, which was much appreciated. In case you didn't know, Bologna in June is HOT, so it was a true pleasure to have this comfortable, cool apartment to retreat to when I felt like it. You have any amenity you could need and access to a number of restaurants, cafes and grocery shops within 5-10 minutes walking distance. In terms of location, you could not ask for a better one unless you moved into one of the two towers! I traveled alone, but the apartment felt spacious to me and I appreciated the attention to detail, from the toiletries, to the slippers and the cake Eliana left in the fridge for me. As a solo female traveler, I also appreciated how safe I felt in the apartment and the city in general. Bologna is a friendly, cultural city and my stay here was what I hoped it would be. If you're looking to visit the city, you should count yourself lucky if you can stay at Eliana's place. I hope I can return in the future!
