Highly recommend this accommodation and here's why:
- great location: we were central to everything we wanted to see and do in Bologna. We traveled by car and Mari helped us with a garage that was reasonably priced and right around the corner from the flat.
- the apartment was clean and we had everything we needed- comfortable beds, extra blankets, a spare shopping bag, maps, adapters, clothes driers, etc.
- it was warm in Bologna while we were there and for us, sleeping in heat is miserable. We would turn on our ac units as soon as we arrived back to the flat and they would quickly cool the place down to our liking. Some of our hotels we stayed in on our trip weren't as reliable. The only thing is that one of the rooms didn't have it's own unit, just a fan.
- Mari was incredible at communicating, reaching out to us before we arrived and greeting us even when we ran late due to traffic. She was available throughout our trip and very friendly always.
I did a lot of research on different apartments and locations and this was one was great. I have to say that I was initially a little wary because of the graffiti I saw in some of the pictures (exterior). Many times graffiti is associated with less safe, higher crime areas. Just as an FYI for those having the same thoughts, Bologna has a lot of graffiti everywhere you go- some artful and others not so much. Don't let that deter you, this area was fantastic!
