My husband, 16 year-old step-daughter, and I spent one night here but wish we had spent more time. We had arrived from Florence, where the hustle and bustle of tourists wore us out, and Bologna was a welcome quiet respite from the crowds. Our visit coincided with the 2 weeks in Aug where locals close up shop and head for the beach; but we found the quiet refreshing.
We fell in love with this apartment. For starters, the place is adorable and my step-daughter wants to live there permanently. The skylights in the bedrooms are a really fun feature and kept the place cool at night with a nice breeze, and then I awoke to a glorious sunrise (you can pull shades if you prefer less light). The kitchen was stocked with all of the essentials, which was really helpful for making breakfast.
But by far the two best features are the terrace with succulents, seating area, and view of Bologna rooftops; and the bikes. There are 3 bikes to use, which is very helpful for getting to/from the old town if you don't want to wait for the bus.
Annalisa is a wonderful host; she communicated very promptly and gave us very thorough and helpful advice for all sorts of things, and was very flexible with our check-in/out time to accommodate our schedule.
I would highly recommend this space to anyone looking to visit Bologna!
