Perfectly positioned within 200m of Due Torri and 300m of Piazza Maggiore. For parking, book Garage Farini (Vicolo S. Damiano 3/3a, tel +39 051 266086, ~€45-50/night) or use free parking at Ex-Staveco. Host Vittorio shares his deep passion for Bologna. Rated 9.5/10 on Booking.com with Location score of 9.9.

Vittorio was extremely helpful with our stay, he told us where we could store our luggage very close by so we could stay and have lunch in town and walk around some more before leaving. This apartment is located in a perfect part of the historic district. Easy walking to all sites and restaurants. One of the best little gems in Italy.

Excellent apartment close to Piazza Maggiore, and all that Bologna has to offer. My only suggestion, would be a shower curtain or glass partition on the tub. Having to sit to wash off is not convenient. However, that said, I would highly recommend this stay without hesitation.
