Awesome location!
Place is clean and well maintained. Excellent location and literally in the middle of all the action. Right when you step outside it’s as lively as can be. Next time we’re in Bologna, we hope to stay there again. Thanks, Julia!

Right in the old town off the main square. Lively with dining and shopping. Would have liked a bit more information on operating the stove, buying the correct coffee, restaurant recommendations, etc. Otherwise loved this place!

Quaint and beautiful
This apartment is located in the heart of the central city on a lively street where just outside of the door you can find restaurants, fruit vendors, food specialty markets and anything else you can think of. You are also close to taxis, buses and if you like walking, the train station is about 10 minutes away. The apartment is charming and the beds are comfortable. Remember that Bologna is an old city so the living quarters are small, but that is the beauty of it. You cannot go wrong staying here.

Charming Balogna Apartment
We have stayed at this property 2 years ago and was very impressed with the apartment and location. It’s city center and comveniently located around many shops, restaurants, and transportation. If you stay in Balogna and don’t rent a car this place is perfect. It was also clean and comfortable.

Perfect Place
We so enjoyed our 5-night stay at the apartment on the via Pescherie Vecchie. Very quiet for being so incredibly central, just off the Piazza Maggiore in a lively and fun location. The apartment was clean and nicely furnished, and very reasonably priced. Julia was helpful and communicative throughout the process. Great find!

Can’t beat the location of this place. 5-stars. My mistake for not reviewing the amenities properly though… this apartment does not have a washing machine.

Great Location in the Heart of all the Action
My husband, son, and I stayed at this flat for two nights. Julia made the whole check-in and check-out process super easy and was very responsive when I had any questions. All of the action of Bologna, restaurants, cafes, shops, etc. are literally outside the front door. With that, it can get a little noisy at night, but nothing that a white-noise app on your phone cannot drown out. It was super convenient for everything and totally worth the little noise during the late evening hours. The flat was very comfortable and we loved that it has air conditioning (we discovered not all flats do in Europe). The bed was comfortable, too. If we ever revisit Bologna, we will stay here again.

Everything was perfect
The location couldn't be better (Piazza Maggiore was at our feet), the building is interesting, so is the appartment. It is fully equipped, AC, spacious, no problem in the bathroom. Spacious beds, me and other 3 friends slept all right. Check in process very easy, self check in. Thank you Julia, recommend!

Perfect Location in Center of Market
This was a great property, and Julia provides all the info needed to get in. Be sure to read the communications thoroughly! I had some issues because I did not, and any difficulties were my fault, not the host’s. The apartment is perfectly located in the center of the market area, so you just have to leave the building and you are in the center of it all. The Piazza Maggiore is steps away, as well as a wide selection of restaurants. Highly recommended if you want convenience to the historic district.

Very loud nights
Central location, close to great food in the city center. Parking is difficult. Listing states check in is at 2pm, but we weren’t let in until 5pm. The apartment would be comfortable for a single visitor or honeymooners. The streets outside the windows are extremely crowded. I’d recommend bringing earplugs as none are provided (also possible to maximize your level of intoxication, if you prefer). Navigating the street to get to to the apartment involves much crowd finessing and a strong willingness to push through people. Once inside there are several things to know: the blackout shades are essential. They are the outermost layer and come down with a string on the righthand side. The hand towels are rolled inside your bath towel. The plates are in the bottom cabinet. The neighbors are kind and helpful.

All the action
In the heart of Bologna, you won’t need to walk more than out the front door for food and wine, a block from shopping and taxis, busses, or anything else you need get. Clean and comfortable with a great shower, even if it is a little small. Lift didn’t work when we arrived but was fixed within hours.

Better than expected!
The property could not be better located; however, it is extremely loud until the restaurants/bars shut down. The photos online do not do the place justice. Better this way than the other way around!! The place is spotless, great shower, good beds and linens, cute place and very roomy for 4 people. Soaps, shampoo and Kleenex provided (nice touch and greatly appreciated). Kitchen was well equipped and essentials provided but we did not use it. Huge television as well but did not use this either, but it was a nice feature to see. Overall great and if you are tired enough, you will sleep through the noise.

Bologna central
Property location was excellent. The apartment was very clean, well stocked, and comfortable. The door lock was really difficult and we struggled to get into the apartment every day. We also struggled with some of the appliances so would have appreciated instructions. But overall I would recommend this apartment as it truly was a delightful place to stay.

Great Place in a Great Location
It was about a 20 minute walk from the train station to the apartment. We went by roman ruins and were mostly in covered porticos for which Bologna is famous. The apartment is large and comfortable and you could not find a better location. It is on a narrow street filled with cafes, butcher shops, vegetable stands and a couple fish markets. That's just in one block! Everywhere we turned there were magnificent buildings -- the Piazza Maggiore, the two leaning towers, and of course, lots of beautifully painted porticos.
