Gabriella has a private parking area, behind a gate so you don't have to worry about finding parking on the street. Upon meeting us she gave us a map of Bologna and pointed out some of her favorite local spots. Even though my friend spoke Italian, Gabriella made sure to speak in English so I would understand as well. Gabriella prepared breakfast every day for us and made sure to ask if there was anything we couldn't eat ( I am allergic to gluten) she made sure that there were plenty of gluten free selections for me. Gabriella lives upstairs, so we felt very safe, and if we ever needed help she was very willing to give us a hand. I highly recommend Gabriella's place!
