We have just returned from a 3 night break in Riccardo's beautiful apartment and it was fantastic. The apartment itself is ideally located - its on one of the main streets in Bologna close to the Due Torri, the old town restaurants and bars and some great shops, but other than being able to hear the street artists performing when sat on the balcony (which we loved) we thought for its location it was very peaceful and quiet. The apartment had plenty of space for the two of us and the balcony was a great bonus - the stairs to the bedroom are more like climbing a ladder so those with restricted mobility be aware....
Riccardo was a brilliant host and was really helpful throughout our stay (and before) answering our questions and kindly booked us a taxi for our return journey to the airport - an information pack at the apartment was also a nice touch and had some good restaurant and bar recommendations. All in all we wouldn't hesitate to recommend this apartment and Riccardo as a host - we can't wait to come back
