Great location in Modena, comfortable for two couples, A/C worked quite well, especially in 90 degree plus heat. Good restaurants nearby, including one directly downstairs. It's about a 10 min walk from the train station. If ever in Modena again, will definitely try to book.

Nicely appointed apartment

Our stay was just one night, but it was memorable. Outstanding communication from host. Centrally located. Would stay here again if we come back to Modena.

Loved the location of the apartment- so close to all the attractions of the old part of Modena. Apartment spacious and airy, clean too. Alberto was most helpful especially when we arrived quite late. The only tiny issue was quite a few lightbulbs weren’t working which meant some rooms were dimly lit, especially the main living room area. Also we needed more usable cups- there are many antique tiny cups and saucers but a severe lack of big mugs for tea . These issues didn’t spoil the holiday though! Over all excellent!

Modern property in old town Modena

This is a beautiful property located in the old part of Modena. After unloading I had to park my car a few blocks away as this is in the no car zone. The payoff: close proximity to a very lively night life and impressive restaurants. The apartment is roomy with a modern, complete kitchen and bath. Excellent value.

Perfect!

This was one of 3 rentals we did on our trip to Italy, and this was the BEST apt we booked. We only stayed 1 night here as a side trip but this apt was beautiful. The hosts were amazing! The check in process was so easy, they remotely let us in, and they let us leave our bags a bit longer after checking out so we could see a couple more things before leaving. They were so gracious, just amazing! If you are planning to visit Modena Italy, Stay here at Orfeo's House. 10 out of 10

Great location. Walkable, safe, and perfect for our group of four women. We had a blast shopping, eating and touring around Old Town. And don’t forget to enjoy the roof top terrace! Highly recommend.
