    Very clean and comfortable apartment, and the air conditioning was a real bonus. Ideal location near to the airport. Nice touches in the apartment were also very welcome - coffee, juice, some pastries/ snacks for breakfast. The host Elisabetta was very responsive and helpful. Would definitely recommend this apartment!

    We had a wonderful stay at this apartment. The space was very clean and modern, providing a comfortable and pleasant environment. Its location is ideal, being just a 10-minute walk from the center, making it convenient to explore the town. The owners were extremely easy to contact and very nice, enhancing our overall experience. They even allowed us to leave our car in the parking spot until we were ready to depart, which was a huge help. Highly recommended for anyone visiting the area!

    Ideal apartment for short or longer stays. Contains all the necessary facilities for a family. The location is just perfect, everything in Bologna city center is around the corner, I doubt there is a better location in Bologna. Spotlessly clean and the bathroom is brand new and renovated, with an amazing rain shower. The building itself is very safe. Very quiet in the night, even though it is so central and there are always people passing by. Definitely recommended!
