My family of 5 stayed at the “Wonderful House in the city heart” in August. We were very happy with our decision to rent the apartment for a week. Staying in Bologna allowed us to visit nearby cities like Venice, Florence, and Modena, and due to the convenient train connections there was no need for a car. The apartment is located in the university area of Bologna and indeed only walking minutes from stores and some very nice restaurants. The train station can be reached in 15 walking minutes, and the Piazza Maggiore - the central piazza in Bologna - can be reached in 10 walking minutes. The apartment is very spacious and offers enough room for 5 people. The open lay-out allowed our family to spend some quality time in the evening with most of us sitting around the big kitchen table. The kitchen is very well equipped and includes a dishwasher. Nicola and his family were perfect hosts and very helpful – before an during our short vacation in Bologna. We hope to be able to stay at the apartment again when we decide to go back to Bologna.
