Location, location, location! The apartment was in the heart of the city and a quick walk to anywhere you wanted to be. We were warmly greeted by our hosts and they were as invested in us having a great stay as we were. They provided us a list of their favorites so that we could enjoy the city as a local and were very responsive to our questions. Bologna is a beautiful city which we enjoyed more than Florence. The apartment is clean, spacious and we enjoyed cooking and doing laundry! We had a fortunate meeting with our host at the train station. They chatted with us as we waiting on our delayed train made sure we boarded and sent us off with a heartwarming good bye. A nice touch to end a great stay. I highly recommend staying here and can’t wait to return. Ci vediamo!

Our favorite stay in our 3 week tour of Italy. Giuseppina put the other hosts to shame. She is truly a rarity in this day and age of kindness and hospitality. The apartment was beautiful, clean, comfortable, and in the perfect location to explore Bologna. She went above and beyond to ensure we had a smooth stay with no issues and it was very appreciated. We highly recommend!!!

My family and I had an absolutely wonderful time in Marco and Guiseppina’s place. They were incredibly helpful with understanding the area and offered plentiful tips to live like a local during our time there and were always available for communication. The apartment is fantastic - clean, spacious, good AC in the hot summer, absolutely fantastic artistic taste and well stocked so you can make pretty much anything you would want in the kitchen. The location is perfect, right next to the center, but tucked away from the crowds. We loved exploring the surrounding streets, so so much in walking distance. We spent every night on the incredible terrace that i miss so much already! We hope to be back. Thank you for a wonderful stay!

Wonder apartment, great host

The apartment was just as described online. It was immaculate. Everything you could need or want for a stay was there. The balcony was delightful for sitting out and enjoying free time. The location was so convenient for sightseeing and shopping. Giuseppina was a thoughtful and caring host. She sent information about the city and her offers to arrange dinner reservations or secure a driver were so helpful. I would highly recommend this location if you are going to Bologna.

Great host Great location

The Jasmine Terrace, a straight forward 18min walk to Bologna Centrale, and was our jumping off point for day/overnight trips to Florence, Milan, Rome, Ravenna and Venice, and a comfortable rest point in between. Even just walking around Bologna, window shopping, walking to various squares, and poking into nearby museums was enjoyable. The spacious apartment was well equipped and worked well for 2 couples. And we enjoyed the terrace whether for a morning coffee or evening dinner. Our hosts were welcoming and gracious, and we recommend!

The Red Door

Giuseppina & Marco are great hosts, met us at the apartment and made sure that we had everything they needed. They also organised a taxi/van to collect us from the airport and to return again at the end of our stay - this included a baby seat for our baby! They also helped with our itineray visiting sights of interest and a food tour and a cookery class. Plus Bologna is the best-kept secret for an Italian holiday, so much to do and such friendly people. Very relaxing. The Red Door is in a great location and the access to the patio area was a great bonus. OK overlooked on all sides - but this is genuine city living and amazingly quiet. Look no further book this place the hospitality industry could learn much from this experience!

Perfect location and most gracious host made our stay fabulous. The host provided an extensive list of attractions, restaurants, cafes, markets, museums, and gelato shops. A food market where locals shop is only steps away. There is also a pharmacy, and dry cleaners. The main piazza is very close. We would love to come back again.

The best place to stay in Bologna

If I could give Giuseppina one million stars, I would. The place itself was stunning. Beautiful art she has collected fills the apartment, making for a gorgeous place to return to after a long day. The apartment was incredibly clean and all amenities worked perfectly. The location was stunning, with beautiful frescos from olden days right outside the door. The recommendations she provided for food and activities were fantastic. Her kindness was immense, she has such a warm and welcoming energy. When we made the mistake of accidentally locking ourself out of the apartment, she solved the problem for us quickly and we were able to get back in without a hitch. If you’re looking for somewhere to stay in Bologna, definitely let it be here. This was the most positive stays my family has ever had. Thank you for everything Giuseppina, it was truly spectacular.
