Will stay again if the price is right, but best to book with a full understanding of the property.
Modern apartment in the center of Bologna. The building is very secure and safe and the location can't be beat. The unit itself was modern, clean and as described. Host was very nice and met us with the keys as soon as we arrived into town.
It's important to remember that this is an apartment rental - whether you're there for 1 night or 1 week, no one takes out the rubbish, changes the towels or cleans during your stay. We had to ask for additional toliet roll, which took about a day to receive. Also, the reviews are not kidding about how incredibly hard the bed is. The apartment building is also behind a hotel, so there is often activity and trucks in the early morning outside the window. So worth keeping in mind if you're hoping to sleep in.

Do not stay at properties managed by this entity.
Location was okay.
The apartment itself was clean. Unfortunately, my experience with the management company was so poor that I cannot recommend booking through them.
When I was searching for accommodations, this listing appeared to be exactly what I needed, including a sofa bed and a large dining table. What I later discovered is that the management company groups photos from multiple units together under a single listing. The photos you see are not necessarily for the specific unit you're booking.
After booking, the management company contacted me and specifically asked whether I wanted bedding left for the sofa bed. I replied yes, and they confirmed. At no point was I told that the unit I had booked did not actually have a sofa bed.
Upon arrival, the local check-in agent escorted us to a completely different apartment than the one I believed I had rented. It was much smaller, had no sofa bed, and no dining table. The agent contacted the management company on my behalf and even shared screenshots of our previous messages discussing the sofa bed.
The management company's response was that I had booked a studio apartment and that the sofa bed communication had been a mistake on their end. Rather than acknowledging the confusion or offering any solution, they told me they "could not make a sofa bed magically appear" and would not provide any compensation or alternative accommodation. I found the response dismissive and unprofessional, especially since their own communications had reinforced my understanding of what I was getting.
To make matters worse, the toilet seat in the apartment was not attached to the toilet when we arrived. I reported it immediately, but the management company never responded, and the issue remained unresolved for the duration of our stay.
Had the management company simply acknowledged the mistake, shown some empathy, or attempted to make things right, my review would be very different.

Uncomfortable, Clinical & Very Noisy
The Location
Bed was hard. No blinds at windows so if you opened shutters you had no privacy. No comfy area, like a sofa or armchair. Only the hard bed or 3 fold up chairs. Shower leaked across floor. Toilet seat broken BUT worst of all was the noise outside all night on a Monday. Ok the rest of the time but that 1st night, hotel workers from opposite were rolling cages up & down cobblestones all night. I am not exaggerating. I even recorded the noise. I complained the next day to the Agents & they said they would send me some air plugs. They never responded to my calls after that.

Missed the mark with the bedding
Self-contained apartment within the old town vicinity of Bologna. Close to all the main tourist spots. Very convenient. A 6 minute or 20 minute walk (if you can manage it) from the train station. A multitude of restaurants, cafes, shops and supermarkets as well as fresh market food stalls. It was superb in that respect.
Getting a little dated. Some marks and mild on the walls. While this apartment was situated in a great area the building itself was located behind the main shopping precinct. Access was via a gated alley and then into the building which overlooked the alley. Very noisy the majority of the time. Shop staff and other people going in and out of the gates and dropping rubbish into the bins. The bed in the apartment was horrendous. Super hard on one side and lumpy on the other. The pillows weren't much better. Sadly I didn't really get much sleep during my entire stay.

Beautiful, modern apartment in a fantastic location. The apartment had everything we needed for four nights. It was clean, comfortable and very quiet. The bathroom was big and the shower was wonderful with great water pressure. The host was very responsive and provided a great guide for the apartment and the area. Centrally located and within easy walking distance to so many fantastic restaurants, sights and shops. We would definitely stay here again.
