I stayed at Valerio’s place during this year’s Cosmoprof fair from March 16th-18th. As I’ve booked my stay in Bologna quite last minute most of the hotels in the city centre were already booked out or were asking for exorbitant rates.
Luckily, I’ve found Valerio’s place for a decent rate and after I have arrived there (the place is a little bit outside the centre but easy to reach by taking bus #19) I must say I was truly amazed by his super welcoming, friendly and hospitable attitude.
Valerio is not just a host that offers you a very nice, neat and quiet room (with private bathroom) but also his friendly, warm and kind attitude so you just feel like being at home!
He not only was keen to share his tips for local restaurants, bars and sights but also showed me how to make real Italian coffee (thank you again for that Valerio ☺️), offered me to go out on a Saturday night with him and his friends and took his time for fruitful and personal discussions while we both were at home.
To sum up, I can highly recommend staying at his place to everyone who’s planning to visit Bologna.
