This place was perfect for me. It's a quick walk to Piazza Maggiore, the heart of Bologna, but in a residential neighborhood, away from most of the tourists. Alessandra is a real person and it's really her apartment. She's very nice and very concerned about the comfort and convenience of her guests. It's very close to Piazza Aldrovandi which is a great place to get coffee in the morning, buy some fruit and vegetables or a piece of fish, lunch or dinner.
