"This space has all the charm and quirks that make a city visitor feel a funky, fun vibe! The location was superb for walking to the historic sites as well as the most iconic shopping and food. Fell in love with the exceptional circular staircase and all the skylights ~ just added to the historic charm of the exposed beams and kitchen with all the modern necessities with an old school feel. Bologna was a blast!"
