We had a fantastic stay at Patricia's apartment in Bologna. The apartment was spotlessly clean and is right beside several food markets. We cooked in the apartment most of the time - its very well equipped to make use of the fact that the best markets in Bologna are right at your doorstep. If you aren't the cooking type, but want to experience some of the best food that Italy has to offer, there's plenty of restaurants very close to the apartment too. We liked having aperitivo in the local restaurant just around the corner from the apartment as well. A city-wide chocolate festival happened while we were staying at the apartment as well, so we took full advantage of that :)
Patricia was always very quick to get back to us with any questions that we had about the city and was able to point out some of the better spots in the city.
We're already planning our next visit to Bologna and would definitely stay at Patricia's apartment again.
