Apartment Obici
This two-bedroom apartment is located on the top floor of a building in the historic center of Spilamberto, a small town between Modena and Bologna in the Emilia Romagna region of Italy. The town is located about 5 kilometers from the Modena Sud exit of the A1 Autostrada and is about a 30-minute drive from the Bologna International Airport (BLQ). This location offers the charm and convenience of being in the center of a small town, yet is centrally located in the region.

Spilamberto has a lively, well preserved historic center with stone streets, covered walkways, an ancient clock tower and fortress. Shops, restaurants, cafes, banks, bakeries, markets and a pharmacy are all conveniently located in town, within easy walking distance of the apartment. There is a weekly market on Wednesday mornings and numerous festivals throughout the year.
There is free parking in various streets of the center with no permit required. Although a car is recommended for getting around the region, there are buses to Modena and other cities and towns from Spilamberto. The closest train stations are Castelfranco Emilia and Bazzano, but the Bologna and Modena stations are better served.

The apartment, which measures about 80 square meters, is bright, fully furnished and has everything necessary for a comfortable stay. There are white walls and characteristic flooring throughout the apartment. It has an open living room with a kitchen, a balcony, two bedrooms and a spacious bathroom. The living room has two sets of French-doors that open to the balcony, which overlooks the square and La Rocca Rangoni, an ancient fortress. One of the bedrooms has a queen bed, while the other has two twin beds. The spacious bathroom has a large shower.

Recently renovated the apartment offers modern comfort and amenities. The modern, fully equipped kitchen has a dishwasher and there is a washing machine and a hair dryer in the bathroom. There is air-conditioning in the living/kitchen and the larger bedroom (with queen bed) and screens on the windows and French-doors. The owner provides free Wi-Fi. The apartment is on the third floor with no elevator, but the bright rooms and view from the balcony are worth the climb. English (and Italian) speaking owners are available to assist guests if/as needed during their stay.

Très beau séjour!
L'appartement était très confortable et pratique. L'emplacement en Emilie Romagne parfait pour graviter dans la région. La climatisation fort appréciée en période de canicule. Seul bémol, la petite chambre à deux lits que je partagerais avec ma fille était très, très chaude puisque non climatisée et les ventilateurs fonctionnaient mal ou étaient très bruyant.

Best Location in Emilio-Romagno
The property is located in the middle of Spilamberto, a classic small Renaissance village. The apartment was very well furnished with a recently remodeled kitchen. Sandro, the owner was a gracious host who notified us in advance of the festival which took place while we were there. The balsamic museum and surrounding balsamic artisans were worth the visit. We used the apartment as a central from which to explore most of the Emilio- Romagno, we visited all of the major cities from Parma to Ravenna, its proximity to the autostrada made this possible.

Excellent stay in Spilamberto
Excellent, quiet location in the pretty historic centre of Spilamberto. The apartment is modern and comfortable (though for those less mobile there are lots of stairs to climb, and no lift). Sitting out on the balcony and looking over the square to the old castle is a joy. You cannot park outside the building, but we had no problem parking just round the corner. Spilamberto is well placed for visiting several beautiful towns and cities around the region (eg Modena and Bologna). Sandro and his family are very good, and responsive, hosts. We would definitely recommend the accommodation and use it again ourselves.

Petit bijou d’appartemement situé dans un quartier au cachet particulier.
Nous n’avons pas rencontré les propriétaires qui étaient à l’exterieur du pays mais ils se sont assurés que notre séjour se déroule le mieux possible. Ils avaient demandé à la lumineuse Silvia de nous accueillir, ce qu’elle a su faire avec générosité. Une dame très chaleureuse qui a vite résolu un petit problème et qui nous a conseillé quelques idées de balades dans la région. Le logement est vaste, très propre, aménagé avec soin et très confortable malgré le fait qu’une des deux chambres ne soit pas climatisée. Un ventilateur mis à notre disposition a suffi pour nous rafraîchir la nuit malgré la canicule. Les lits simples ne sont pas d’un grand confort pour des adultes. Ils conviennent probablement mieux pour des enfants. Logement bien équipé pour cuisiner, laver les vêtements, repasser etc. Bien situé, on trouve tout à quelques pas: pain, pâtisserie, pâtes fraîches, bar, resto et surtout la fabuleuse gelato. Nous avons apprécié le cachet de Spilamberto et les petites attentions laissées par les proprios et la belle Silvia. On recommande sans aucune hésitation!
