Antonio was very responsive and friendly. His parents actually checked us in, but we subsequently met Antonio a few times. We had issues with the elevator and wifi being out for an extended period -- none of which had to do with the apartment. But, he found out when the elevator would be fixed. He contacted the wifi people several times and then went above and beyond by obtaining a different wifi portal for us to use. The cooking facilities were very good. We loved the washer and separate dryer. We were there during the hottest weeks on record. The A/C was sufficient. But, the temp was between 98 and 103 every day we were there. I'm sure the A/C would have no problem in less severe temps. It's about a 20 minute walk to Piazza Maggiori, which was a bit far in 100 temp, but normally not a problem and a nice walk. The apartment is close to grocery stores and wine emporiums. Of importance is the apartment is close to several very good restaurants. In addition, it is a 5 minute walk to the train station. We really enjoyed our time there and highly recommend it. Thanks Antonio.

It was conveniently located, only a 10 min walk from the train station. There were plenty of restaurants, grocery stores, banks, etc. nearby and a great place to stay when staying in Bologna! There were 2 bedrooms & bathrooms with a door that we used to "close-off" the second part of the house to allow the air conditioners to operate more efficiently. The kitchen was nicely appointed with a refrigerator, microwave, coffee pot with coffee and filters, (which was greatly appreciated)! We met the owner, who showed-us the property, though didn't speak English -- we were able to figure-out what he was trying to convey. This is the most secure property that I've stayed at any VRBO! The entry into the building is via 1 lock & key, the security door in front of the house is via another lock & key and the door to the property is via another lock & key. The Internet was sufficient, Speedtest.net reported 8MB download speeds so it was fine for web browsing and email, but then again you're on vacation so get off your device and explore!

First off it's about a 5 minute walk from the train station which was amazing after traveling all day. The apartment itself was beautiful, clean lots of space. I was able to cook a meal with fresh products from. the market a short walk away. There are 2 restaurants and Cafes on the same block which are amazing. the apartment is very quiet at night even with windows open. Shopping district is walking distance and Bologna itself is so close for day trips to Milan, Parma and Florence. Lovely stay, Antonio communicated what was necessary but didn't bother me at all. I even met his lovely parents as I was checking out. I would deffanitly stay here again if I returned to Bologna
