A Wonderful Base in Bologna
Review Submitted: November 13, 2008
Date of Stay: October 2008
This apartment was our third stop on a very focused tour of the Veneto and Emilia-Romagna. We have stayed in many such apartments in the past, but few have been as comfortable, convenient, and as welcoming as Michelle's flat in Bologna. Everything in the description is completely accurate, but does not do justice to the small details that Michelle provides to provide both a personal touch and practical comfort. Fresh breakfast food, home-made jam, a personal laundry service to name a few. Michelle goes to extraordinary lengths - from first contact- to ensure that your stay in Bologna and area is as good as possible. In our case for example, she found someone willing to provide lessons in hand-made pasta and she provided many helpful hints on wonderful places to eat, shop, and tour. All in French, Italian, or English ( or all 3 at once in our case) - your choice. This apartment is a real find and we look forward to future and longer stays here. Bologna itself is a somewhat under-played city to visit in Italy. From a base like Michelle's flat you could easily pursue cooking classes, language classes, and enjoy life in a truly wonderful Italian city.
