The apartment is located in the historic center of Bologna, in the most characteristic district of the city. In the immediate vicinity are the most important point of historical and artistic interest, such as the prestigious Academy of Fine Arts, the famous Teatro Comunale, the characteristic old Jewish Ghetto, the Garisenda tower and the Asinelli tower (less than 2 minutes) on foot, as well as Piazza Maggiore), while Via dell'Indipendenza, known as the Bolognese shopping street, is about 300 meters away.
In the area there are also numerous restaurants, taverns, bars and cafés of all kinds as well as pharmacies, tobacconists and bakers. In addition, exactly on the corner with via delle Pescherie Vecchie there are many shops that produce and sell handmade pasta and sell local vegetables, as well as fresh fish and meat. A true paradise for lovers of Italian gastronomy.
Public transport
The apartment is located in a strategic position thanks to its proximity to Via dell'Indipendenza, where buses pass allowing easy access to every part of the city, such as the Fiera, the airport and the train station (only 15 minutes away) by walk. The bus stop in via Rizzoli allows you to reach quickly the train station (where you can take the shuttle to the airport), the Bologna Fair and the hospitals; all the monuments and points of interest of the historical center are reachable with short walks.
Parking

This was an ideal location for walking Bologna. I received detailed checkin instructions and it made for a great trip. The only concern is that it could use a new paint job. The walls in the bedroom and kitchen looked pretty beat up. Other than that it was perfect for us.
Fantastic location! Super convenient in the center of Bologna great stay!!

Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, location
Incredible location. Could not be more central in the Historic district. The apartment was modern, clean and well laid out. Only issue was we expected there to be a sofa bed, as advertised, in addition to the bed in the bedroom, but there wasn't. Got by as the sofa was very comfortable and there was a spare duvet and there were only two of us. If 4 people are staying, it wouldn't work. Would definitely stay here again though based on the modern apartment and the incredible location. If you are looking to stay here, and there are 4 of you, just make sure to check with them first as I assume they must bring a portable bed to accommodate or something similar.
