Francesca's apartment was clean and bright and airy. It could not be more centrally located- just steps away from the Piazza Maggiore and everything the old part of Bologna has to offer. The information about the apartment was clear and helpful, and Francesa was extremely responsive. One bedroom overlooks the via Rizzoli, a very active thoroughfare- with people more than vehicles. Luckily my companion is a sound sleeper and took that room; I am a very light sleeper - the 2nd bedroom was ideal for me! Bologna is a wonderful place to visit- and this apartment puts you right in the middle of it.
