Guest Reviews
- Clotilde (8/5): -

- Josip (5/5): Fantastisk beliggenhed, men lejligheden levede ikke helt op til forventningerne - Lejligheden har en fantastisk central beliggenhed tæt på Piazza Maggiore, og værten reagerede hurtigt, da vi kontaktede dem omkring problemer under opholdet. Lejligheden fremstår flottere på billederne end i virkeligheden. Den er ret slidt og rengøringen kunne være bedre. Ved ankomst var lejligheden desuden ikke korrekt klargjort til 4 personer, selvom dette var bekræftet på forhånd både med værten og Booking.com. Der manglede dyner og sengetøj første nat.
Der er meget lydt, og området er støjende om aftenen og natten på grund af aktivitet på gaden. Det generede ikke os væsentligt, men både støjniveauet og de mange trapper op til lejligheden (99 trin) burde beskrives tydeligere i annoncen.
Køkkenet er sparsomt udstyret med service og køkkenredskaber, og temperaturen i lejligheden er låst og styres af værten.
Vi var desuden skuffede over Booking.coms håndtering af sagen efterfølgende.
Beliggenhed får 10/10

- Vincenzo (9/5): - The property was excellent. Communication with staff was challenging at times.
- Katalin (10/5): Csodálatos környezet, hangulatos szállás - Gyönyörű , történelmi épületben volt , a központban . Minden fontosabb látnivaló pár perc sétára 4 személyre foglaltunk és csak 2 személyre volt törülköző és ágynemű
- Sabine (9/5): -
- carolina (4/5): - Alloggio che sapeva di stantio, biancheria letto e bagno avevo un odore sgradevole.
Doccia buia, priva di luce.
Gli armadi puzzavano.
Direi negativo.

- Enrico (9/5): Wir fühlten uns sofort wohl in der Unterkunft. - Hervorragende Lage. Sehr liebevoll eingerichtete Dachwohnung. Gemütlich und für zwei Personen absolut ausreichend. Für 4 Personen wohl eher etwas knapp. Kücheneinrichtung scheint ok zu sein, wir haben aber nie gekocht, so dass wir das nicht testen konnten. Da es keinen physischen Schlüssel gibt, sondern nur eine elektronische Schliesskontrolle per Handy, muss man auch keine sperrigen Haus- und Wohnungsschlüssel herumschleppen. Der fehlende Lift hat uns nicht gestört, sollte aber evt. in der Beschreibung erwähnt werden. Auch das es nur Dachfenster gibt (und somit keine Aussicht hat), war für uns kein Problem, man sollte es aber halt einfach wissen.
- Marco (10/5): Nel centro di Bologna - Appartamento ordinato ed elegante.
Della struttura mi è piaciuta la storia che porta con sé.
Ottima la vista su Bologna

- Paola (10/5): Soggiorno stupendo in un posto fantastico - Tutto Niente
- Mark (10/5): - Our stay in jungle bijoux was extremely pleasant. The apartment was spotlessly clean, comfortable and the location is amazing, being only a few steps away from Piazza Maggiore Nothing
- Carlos (10/5): -
- Ward.k (8/5): A Lovely apartment in Central location - The apartment was very spacious and very comfortable. The location is in a good place, but this does also come with a few things people will need to be aware of, such as noise from the street below. Information on how to access the apartment was clear and the instructions in the apartment as well. As we were staying for a week, it would benefit with having a few items added to the kitchen. We did not have any chopping board, bread board to use for cooking meals. A pair of scissors would be very useful. Also there were no dishes to use to cook any food in the oven which would be have been a great help. It mentioned having a toaster, but there wasn't one in the apartment. The utensils were mainly metal, so we were afraid of damaging the frying pans or pots if using these. The location of the apartment is very central which we did present us with a lot of noise at night coming up from the streets from the restaurants and passing people. Also the dustbins are located right at the entrance of the apartment building and the noise from these being emptied in the early hours of the morning daily comes is quite loud, so you are woken up all the time. None of the windows are sound proofed so everything echoes right up to the top.
- Toffolo (1/5): - Room was dirty on arrival, as this property has a virtual check-in procedure, it was hard to get in touch with them. The number provided was answered by a bot, who continued replying "I am escalating this to property management" which did not happen. At 8pm we moved to a new location and the actual owner did not get in touch with us until the following morning. We stayed elsewhere. They went radio silent when we requested the tourist tax be refunded, as we had to pay at the accomodation we moved to. Would not recommend for risk of this occurring.
The room itself and location would have been nice, but the service was awful.
- Louise (9/5): - Lovely, large room with skylights with blinds on the skylights! A real highlight. Fabulous proximity to restaurants, cafes, shopping and train station. It is the top floor so there are a LOT of stairs. Shower a little small with no holder for shampoo, washes. Regardless, a fantastic stay.
- Anna Belén (9/5): Confort y encanto en el corazón de Bologna - el encanto que tiene el apartamento, y su tamaño super espacioso. Las vistas desde sus ventanas en el tejado son increíbles, al campanario de la catedral. Quizás la ducha, siempre es la zona más húmeda en habitaciones y apartamentos y necesita un extra de mimo para que esté impecable. Però en general, todo muy bien.
- Maria (5/5): Mejorable - La ubicación y la decoracion Hay bichos, más de veinte picaduras desde el primer día, aunque el propietario intentó quitarlos con una limpieza adicional, volvieron a picarnos, es necesario que se realice una intervención mayor.
No tiene ascensor.
- Marisa (9/5): Heerlijk appartement midden in het historisch centrum van Bologna - Heerlijk ruim en sfeervol appartement op een toplocatie
- Jeannine (9/5): - Charakteristische Wohnung -
- Aurelie (8/5): -
- Mateusz (9/5): Beautiful location in the heart of Bologna! - It is a wonderful apartment; I would love to come back in the future! The property is located on the top floor of a relatively tall building, and there is no elevator. While this wasn't a significant issue for me, it's good to be aware of.
The carpet would need a bit more attention. Overall, very clean and neat place!
- Roel (8/5): Leuke plek midden in Bologna! - Ligging, zeer centraal. En sfeervol appartement.
- Benjamin (7/5): -
- Carolina (8/5): - La ubicación. Cama cómoda, y habitación muy espaciosa Solicitamos entrar una hora antes y no nos lo concedió, es muy estricto con el horario.....y no sobligó a ir con las maletas al restaurante y daba la senación que nos podía haber ofrecido la entrada antes
No hay ascensor y subir esos tres pisos, tan altos es un problema y mas con el calor que hace
No hay tostadora para pan, y deben tomar nota para ponerlo cuanto antes.
Había 2 lamparas que no funcionaban,
- Robert (9/5): - Die Nähe zum Zentrum
- Lun (10/5): 开门的瞬间异常惊喜 - 地理位置方便 非常温馨 和朋友一起度过了完美的假期 非常推荐
- Kirsty (8/5): -

- Callum (8/5): Great location with comfort - Fantastic location in the heart of Bologna streets. Comfy bed including the sofa bed. Clean apartment. If you are self catering then kitchen utensils seemed limited. The wine glasses were not a full set (we were only 3 people too), all different sizes. Very very minor detail, but considering you are in a foody city, you may have wanted to bring back food and a bottle of wine for the evening.
Not a complaint but an awareness. If you are three adults and using the sofa bed, then you have to walk through the main bedroom to get to the bathroom. This could disturb sleep if you need the bathroom at night or if you're an early riser compared to the rest of your group. Not a problem for us as we were traveling as a family however, could cause issues for other parties.
- John (8/5): Very good - Great location, spacious, nicely furnished Water collecting in the shower tray
- Neville (7/5): Great location, beware of stairs and needing data roaming to access the property. 100 stairs requires high fitness leve - Quirky, self contained accommodation in the roof of old building. Very convenient location. Good facilities and having a washing machine and clothes horse was great. Electronic keys limited access requiring internet limited access to only one of us. The 100 stairs are really steep and require a good level of fitness given you want to use the location (and small bags!!!). Shower head needed repair and shower well filled with water. A chopping board is required as a microwave would be handy too. The garage instructions limiting to one small kitchen bag was not appropriate, particularly given stairs and our inability to find the refuse location mentioned.
- Chrysogonus (8/5): Very good -
- Florence (9/5): Superb - Absolutely beautifully furnished apartment in a fantastic location right in Bologna old town centre. The kitchen was nicely equipped to do cooking in house, very stylish interior design throughout, and the bathroom products were lovely local, natural items. Nice view of the tower can be seen from the attic style windows and the apartment stayed nice and warm overnight. We really enjoyed our stay here and the access in and out was nice and straightforward. Many thanks! The only downside is somehow the noise from the street echoes all the way up to the apartment - and the locals were a lively bunch from what we heard! Some double glazing would no doubt sort this issue
- Daniel (8/5): Stunning view, inside & put - Beautiful apartment, wonderful view out of the skylight, great location! Require Internet connection to access the apartment. We had a few moments without signal due to poor connectivity in the area, meaning we couldn't access the apartment until we got signal again.
- Oceana (10/5): Highly recommend. Grateful for the accommodations. - Excellent location and clear and easy instructions to checkin with code/app. Loft space was unique and comfortable. Host was quick to respond when we had questions. The history and wood beams were very cool. Netflix was a plus. Very comfortable sleeps. Washer machine doesn’t unlock on speed cycles (but maybe user error). We were able to run the 90 cotton cycle and it was nice to have clean laundry. You will need to take your trash and recycles out of the unit so add time to checkout plan. TV remote also doesn’t work well even after we swapped batteries.
- Shirene (8/5): Excellent apartment in a great location! There was plenty of space, great character and the kitchen was perfect. However - Excellent apartment in a great location! There was plenty of space, great character and the kitchen was perfect. The 101 stairs you need to climb to get to the apartment on the top floor (I counted) was a lot and had we known, we probably wouldn’t have chosen it as we had to carry a pram up and down each time. The electronic door system was quite annoying.
- Graeme (9/5): Superb -
- Suzy (9/5): Great location and nice apartment. - Great location So many stairs and no elevator. Quite challenging with big suitcases.
- Eve (5/5): Passable - Good location Owner left us with clogged shower drain (water overflowing in the bathroom ) for 3 days
Apartment is not soundproof : you can hear your neighbours in the bathroom and all the noise from the outside concerts at night
Ceiling is very low (if you are taller than 5 feet 8 , you will live with your head bent all the time)
101 wide steps to reach the apartment (think about it if you have big luggage)
- Clive (8/5): Very good - Location was ideal, right in the heart of the city centre just off the main road from the station (20 minutes) to the main Piazza. Clean and comfortable, it seemed to have everything we needed although we only used the kitchen to make tea. Bed was comfortable, and as it's located in the roof space of the building the air conditioning was much appreciated. Very convenient for restaurants for dinner and breakfast. Good communication with the owner although all done through the booking.com app. An interesting photo book about the apartment is on the coffee table. I had been concerned about using the door release system through a special website accessed on my phone but it worked well (as if by magic!). This opens the front (street) door as well as the door to the apartment. If you don't have a modern smart phone with data roaming, book elsewhere! Nightly cost reasonable (£130) bearing in mind location. Five flights of steps, 100 of them, was wearing when you are 'getting on a bit' and carrying cases (no lift). Mind the low beams in the apartment and note that all the windows are in the roof so the only view is of the sky!
- Sofia (10/5): Exceptional -
- Dennis (6/5): Pleasant - seems like the host is a fully bot operated system. Multiple automated messages received via the booking.com build-in messenger however no reaction received to a simple question.
- Eloise (9/5): Comfortable, with a great location and great service - Amazing location, perfect for 2 Lots of stairs!! But you are warned before they are not kidding I counted a hundred!
- Theodore (8/5): Great stay with perfect location in Bologna! - The location was amazing!!! All the stairs. A lot if you travel with a lot of luggage.
- Paige (10/5): Exceptional - The apartment was very comfortable and large. It was in a good location. The couch was comfortable as well. We ran the air conditioning at night, but if you did not you would probably have heard the street noise. Just know there are 5 flights of stairs and no elevator.
- Vasileios (9/5): Superb -
- Alexander (10/5): Exceptional - Superb location and a beautifully decorated appartement. A little bit of noise at night which is to be expected in such a central location. The location is outstanding though and we loved the view of the tower through the sky light. We are a family of 4 with kids of 15 and 12 years. We would definitely return and stay here again!!!
- Sergi (10/5): Great location and very nice and comfortable apartment - Great apartment: bigger than expected, beautiful, with natural light, clean... Also, perfect location. Everything was very easy and I would strongly recommend it.
- Marcelina (10/5): Place is beautiful, interior design amazing, very spacious and comfy. All kitchen equipment, bathroom,living room were - Everything - beautiful place
- Loren (10/5): Bright and fun historic nest near the cathedral bell tower - It is adorable, interesting and cozy! Fantastic views of the cathedral tower and the host provided information on the history of the city architecture as well as the apartment itself. The location is right in the center of town.
- Lewis (10/5): Exceptional - keys were on my phone, amazing location and beautiful apartmernt
- Giulia (9/5): Great location - Great location, the bnb is right behind Piazza Maggiore, inb the heart of city centre.
Spectacular view of the church bell tower from the windows.
Nice idea to use an app to open the doors, not needing any physical keys. Small issue if your signal is not great because the app works only with an internet connection (signal is not the best close to the entrace door).
Tha apartment is very nice, kettle and coffee machine available, hairdrier too.
Spot on for the towels, they were very soft! Bed is a bit small and the matress could call for a replace as it's bended in the middle. Pillows could be replaced too.
The bnb is on a third floor without elevator.
- Emily (10/5): Exceptional -
- Isobel (10/5): Wonderful stay, would come back - We had a great stay, the apartment was beautiful and clean. Loved the wooden beams throughout and all the furniture. It is in a great location in the centre of Bologna, so easy to get around and to and from the train station. The kitchen facilities were perfect for what we needed. We couldn't find any dish washer tablets, but not a massive problem for us as we didn't cook so it was easy to wash up. Other than that it was perfect, we had such a good stay and would be very happy to stay again when we come back to Bologna. There are many stairs to walk up to the apartment, but this was fine for us as gave us a chance to walk off all that pasta :D
- Philipp (9/5): Superb - The place is located in the heart of bologna and you are close to all the important sights. Everything is clean and nicely furnished and decorated. From window you can see two of the towers of bologna! The bed is comfy and the appartment very spacious. Everything was great!
- Christine (9/5): Superb - Nice apartment that is centrally located with an incredible view! Spacious and comfortable and good communication/instructions from the host. One downside is the amount of stairs you must climb to the top of the building so be aware of this if you have lots of luggage, stroller etc. The stairs were quite dark at night.
- Jameson (10/5): Perfect location - Amazing location and beautiful styling, would love to stay here again. Nothing, it was great
- Șerban (7/5): Good -
- Stefka (10/5): Simply magical - Excellent central location - close to everything, but still quiet! With antique, historical vibes, Torre Altabella Tower visible from the skylights... simply magical. Beautiful decoration, with everything you need for a stay. Completely self-servicing check-in and out which made it very convenient. It would have been great if the host was answering his emails... If you want to get in touch with them use What's App.
- Alex (10/5): Exceptional - Great location and friendly owner Everything was OK. The WiFi went off for two days bug it didn't affect our stay
- Lea (9/5): Great stay, would come back - The location was amazing - in the centre, easily accessible. The apartment was nicely decorated, very spacious, access was easy, clean and had everything you require. The shower temperatue was a bit hard to regulate. In the mornings they empty the bins outside and it can wake you up at 6:30am - easily fixed with earplugs.
