For our first visit to Bologna this was a great location and apartment. The apartment was cozy and close to everything. It is most comfortable for two people. Be prepared for some street noise (traffic/voices) in the early evening and as business open in the morning. The noise wasn't excessive, it didn't affect our sleeping but is worth noting for light sleepers. The price to pay to be perfectly situated for experiencing Bologna! Just step downstairs for your morning cappucino and croissant and watch the city come alive! The apartment was very comfortable to come home to, after a few wonderful days touring the city! Thanks, Letizia!
