BEL APPARTEMENT BOLOGNE ET ENTRE MODENA

The bed was very hard and the apartment was very hot, even with the fans running on full. Booked four days but left early as we couldn't sleep well.

My wife, son, and I stayed in this apartment for 5 days while visiting the area. Conveniently located in the small town of Gaggio, just outside of Modena, it's just a 20-30 minute drive to the Lamborghini and Ferrari museums, 45 minutes to Bologna and an hour to Parma. We also drove into Florence a couple days and that took 1.5 to 2 hours. Lots of trattorias, pizzerias and restaurants within 20 minutes of the apartment.

The apartment is comfortable and was plenty spacious for the three of us and it was nice to have a garage in which to park the car. The kitchen is stocked with cooking equipment and dishes, though, frankly, we chose to eat at local establishments most nights. No air conditioning, but opening the windows and using the fans suited us well during our stay in mid June. There is a bar downstairs that has pastries and coffee in the morning.

The apartment is situated right on top of a tabac and I was a bit concerned about smoke smell, especially because smoking is allowed in the apartment and my wife and son are very sensitive to the smell of smoke. But, the apartment smelled fresh and free of smoke, except when we would return from a day's outing when smoke from downstairs had drifted up, but a few minutes with the windows open cleared the smoke smell.

Walter and Mirella were responsive to our communications and were welcoming hosts.

Ho alloggiato in questo appartamento durante la il festival del gioco di Modena: la breve distanza e la tranquillità del posto sono state apprezzatissime.

Ci tornerò.
