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

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.
