This place was PERFECT! Usually there might be something even a little thing that you'd find not quite right - but not here. This was such a great apartment! The location was perfect for exploring. It was so quiet for sleeping. It was clean and comfortable. We loved our stay here and highly recommend this beautiful accommodation.

We had high expectations for this apartment based on the listing information but we were a little disappointed. It wasn’t as clean as we hoped, especially the kitchen area, although it was acceptable I guess. The host was very responsive and prompt and tried to provide us with what we needed. It is well located and safe. Our biggest issue is that there are many many steps in this unit (for example, to go from the bedroom to the bathroom required us to step down, step up, step down - every time. And this wasn’t as clear as it could have been in the pictures or the listing description. This is not an appropriate apartment for anyone who has balance issues - which we had. In summary, it’s an acceptable property - not great, but acceptable.

Isaia Garden Apartment
A very nice apartment but a few niggles: the check in procedure was okay, however, when arriving at the property, none of the phone numbers listed in the instructions worked. I found another and managed to speak to someone who initiated the opening of the outer front door remotely. There did not appear to be any way to switch on the lights leading to the property through the garden, it was very dark! A couple of glasses were chipped and the only cork screw was broken. We replaced the corkscrew as we wanted to have some wine! I left the chipped glasses out and labled them as such. I did notify the owner/caretake who acknowledged this. From the description of the property, we were not aware that one of the bathrooms was on the ground floor, maybe our mistake. Regardless, we had a great time and the location of the apartment was really good. Thank you!

We had a wonderful time. The apartment was spacious, clean, and comfortable. The kitchen was well equipped which enhanced our stay. The location was excellent. The listing should include instructions about where to park.

Lovely, quiet place in downtown Bologna
Had a wonderful stay with family here. So quiet! And such a lovely street minutes from all the sites downtown. Bathrooms were nice and modern and we had a washer in the kitchen. There was also a hairdryer in the bathroom upstairs which I very much appreciate as I’d love to pack it but never do when we go to Europe. Very nice touch. The best was the garden where we could relax after a long day walking about.
Only thing to note during check in is if you’re a US resident, you need to enter 00 or the + sign when making the call to be let in initially. On our cell phones I couldn’t find the + and didn’t know you can also use 00. This should be stated clearly in the directions. Other than that, lovely stay and would come again!

Spacious and private
This apartment was very private and quite spacious for two. The garden is wonderful-altho rain prevented us from enjoying it. The location is a little remote from the historic center- about a mile, which is a lot for septugenarians. The bus system is excellent but you have to learn how to use it.The best thing about the location is the proximity to Rosmarin-a wonderful Trattoria with 5 star food.Few Italians spoke English in that neighborhood, which made getting around more difficult. Overall, we recommend this place for touring Americans but rent it with eyes wide open. We never met an owner- the entry directions were a little weird -
