My wife and I loved our stay in Bologna at Barbara's flat. The location is amazing and her place is equipped with everything you'd want or need (including a comfortable bed, which is always key for us, and a nice shower). Barbara was exceedingly helpful and responsive, which again was all we could ask for. We'd stay there again on any future trip back to Bologna. And the city itself was great. A really easy city to get around, and was one of the more comfortable places in Italy that we've visited.
