Amazing and Convenient

This was an ideal location to stay in Bologna, close to city center, wide range of restaurants, bars, and markets but also convenient to groceries and shops for other amenities. Check in and check out was easy and all inquiries received prompt responses. Apartment was clean and comfortable and also had laundry. Would definitely recommend!

Very nice apartment in a good part of town

This apartment is very clean and modern. The beds are very comfortable. The kitchen is well-stocked but could use a Better coffee maker. Better coffee maker The location is very good, being close to the center of town. So the apartment is on a busy street the bedrooms open up into the back so it is very quiet night. All in all, a very nice stay .

Great stay with family in Bologna

My family of 4 had a great stay at the Cavalleria Rusticana. The apartment was clean and ready for us upon arrival. The hosts provided a very thorough welcome document with answers to many questions and recommendations in the area. When we had a question, the hosts responded quickly. The location was quiet and a short 10-15 minute walk to Piazza Maggiore where there was lots of great dining, shopping and tourist sights to see. Highly recommend staying at this property.

Great for 5

This apartment was perfect for our family of 2 adults and 3 kids. It was particularly handy for the kids to have their own room with three beds upstairs. The keyless entry was convenient and the secure parking was great. Everything in town was about a 12-15 minute stroll away; this worked for us, but might not be ideal for someone with mobility issues. The apartment was close to piazza Santa Stefano, which had a great atmosphere with cafes and delicious gelato.

You needn’t look any further

We came for a few days before our cruise. The location was perfect as it was a short walk to the center of town. The people at the desk were so nice, helpful and very easy on the eyes. The apartment is perfect. It’s exactly as pictured. The kitchen and bathrooms are as clean as any hotel. The ac is better than expected with separate units in every room. The beds were very comfortable. The only negative thing I have to say is that the shower in the downstairs bedroom is assuredly tight. But the water pressure is just fine and I would not hesitate to come back or send my friends.

Perfect in every way!

We rented two properties from Francesca in Residence Opera, because our group was large. Both were absolutely perfect! This particular one has 2 beds and bath, and one of the bedrooms had 3 single beds, so it was perfect for our needs. The furniture and amenities, as well as the apartment itself are beautiful and modern. We had everything we needed. We came over Christmas, and there even was a traditional Panetonne waiting for us! We loved the location; close enough to walk to everything, yet very quiet. And we also appreciated the laundry room that was open 24/7. I would give this more than 5 stars if I could! Thank you!

Städtetrip mit Freundinnen

Es hat uns insgesamt gut gefallen. Zentrale Lage. Unkomplizierter Check in. Gute Ausstattung der Wohnung und Sauberkeit. Gute Betten. Auf Nachfrage bekamen wir problemlos eine zweite Bettdecke. Die Küche ist etwas spartanisch ausgestattet. Und das Geschirr war leider nicht 100% sauber.

Modern Apartment in Historic Building ~ A-plus!

We loved every facet of our 7-week stay at Opera Residence - the apartment, free laundry in the building, elevator (or stairs to keep in shape), coded entry so no need to carry a key, weekly housekeeping, outdoor space, and the neighborhood. The beds were very comfortable and kitchen area adequate to prepare meals with convection stovetop and microwave. Food is readily available around the corner ranging from a variety of small restaurants to fruit and vegetable stands, cheese stand, fish stand, pasta store with "to-go" delicious food, bakeries, Farmacia, plus more small vendors. The location is away from the tourist fray, yet a 10-minute walk to Piazza Maggorie. Within a mile are parks, museums, historic churches and sights, other piazzas, fabulous high-end shopping mall, and delicious gelatos stores! And, it is on a bus line. I highly recommend this property, and would definitely stay again.

Traumhaftes Apartment mitten in Bologna

Unser Apartment in Bologna hat uns sowohl was Ausstattung und Design (alles ganz neu und modern) als auch die Parkmöglichkeit sehr gut gefallen. Man konnte alles zu Fuß machen und musste das Auto nicht mehr bewegen. Wir kommen auf jeden Fall wieder.
