Leon's place was not exactly what I expected. First, the positive: the location was fantastic. We were there for my graduate school reunion, and it was very close by. And Via San Vitale is great - full of gelaterias, pizzerias, and other shops, and a short walk to the center of town. The apartment itself, on the other hand, left quite a bit to be desired. It has a very strange layout - even though it's designated as being for a lot of people, there are really only two bedrooms, and one's essentially located inside the other. The other "bedroom" (or room with beds) is essentially a hallway with no doors. The only two bathrooms are located at the other side of the apartment and are stacked on top of each other, behind a mirrored wall. The kitchen is small but functional, though we had trouble finding the light switch and the dishwasher didn't work, which we were not expecting. Since we had two families staying there (it was one of the few places in Bologna that could accommodate all of us), the family that came second had to sleep in the hallway, which meant that they had very little privacy. Also, there was only one key, which meant I had to get the key copied down the street. Until I did this, our freedom to do things separately was really severely restricted, because you need a key to get in the building as well as the apartment. Though I did not meet Leon, he was fairly responsive through the Airbnb app. The next time I am in Bologna with such a large group, I think I'd try to find two apartments in the same neighborhood rather than renting a big one, because this didn't work out very well this time.
