Annalisa's place was really great and she was very quick to reply to any questions/inquiries. We felt very at home at her place and the balcony was truly nice to enjoy in the great weather. We really enjoyed our time there and cannot wait to go back! The only key thing you need to decide is if you want to stay directly in the center of the old town. If you do, then you will need to select a location closer but it will be more expensive and smaller and without a balcony. We preferred this location as it was closer to the train station, quiet and it allowed us a 15-20 minute walk to the old center which was great as you will be eating a lot in Bologna and will need some steps to burn the calories!
