The Via Cartoleria apartment was simply incredible and Paolo and Elisa are world class hosts. The apartment is even more beautiful and spacious than shown in the photographs on the AirBnB website. A prototype for the kind of hip and fun Italian industrial design that you imagine but rarely find in practice while traveling in Italy. It is located on a side street in the historic district of Bologna across from part of the University. The house is immaculate and the beds and furniture are new and super comfortable. The kitchen is large and fully stocked - we cooked a number of our meals there after buying the freshest vegetables and pasta and fish from the vendors on the Via Pescherie Vecchie - a short walk from the apartment along with the rest of the district and the best gelato in Italy. The apartment also is literally next door to and shares a courtyard with a theatre company in Bologna. While we were there the troupe of actors performed a Greek drama for a few evenings in the courtyard about 10 steps from our door. So: we LOVED staying in the Via Cartoleria apartment and cannot wait to return. Finally: Paolo and Elisa are wonderful to deal with and really attentive and friendly hosts. In fact we left something behind and they bent over backwards to help us retrieve it. We have never had a better AirBnB experience.
