Bologna is a great city and staying in the apartment of Beatrice makes it easy for you to enjoy this city. The location is superb, within 5 minutes you drink your coffee at the Piazza Maggiore and you can walk all the sites. Yes, you have to ascend a few stairs to reach your aparment but consider it a warming up to climb the Torre degli Asinelli! The apartment is clean and there is enough space for two persons. Because it is at the top floor of the building the street noise in the evening is not disturbing. Inside the building it is very quiet. Beatrice has lots of Italian guidebooks about Bologna and a very useful one in English as well. There is information about the sites and the restaurants. Beatrice is kind, communicative and very helpful, when we wanted to prepare our diner in the kitchen and there wasn't a sharp knife, after one whatsapp message we received two knives.
