DECORIALAB APARTMENTS, Bologna

The location balances easy rail access with proximity to the historic core - the main piazza, Quadrilatero, and MAMbo are all within a 10-15 minute walk. Bus stop No. 11 is right outside, providing direct routes to the city centre. A large Coop supermarket, several cafés and restaurants (Niji Sushi, Pizza Amore, Nuovo Caffe del Porto) are within a 3- to 5-minute walk. The airport is 9 km away; walking to the station for the Marconi Express shuttle takes about 10 minutes. Rear-facing apartments overlook a quiet courtyard garden, keeping street noise to a minimum.

Units come as either a one-bedroom apartment (living room, separate bedroom, bathroom) or a studio, both with garden views. The one-bedroom layout offers generous space with parquet flooring, a seating area with flat-screen TV, a washing machine, and a well-equipped kitchen (stovetop, refrigerator, microwave, kitchenware, electric kettle, tea/coffee maker). Beds are exceptionally comfortable. The apartment is quiet even on a main street, especially in rear-facing units overlooking the courtyard garden. Central heating keeps the space warm in winter. Windows open to the rear side, and the building is older but clean and tidy.

A full kitchen - stovetop, refrigerator, microwave, and cookware - is provided for preparing your own meals. Nearby dining options within a 3- to 5-minute walk include Nuovo Caffe del Porto, Sorsi & Bocconi, Niji Sushi, Pizza Amore, and La Lanterna. Several cafés (e.g., La Republica) serve breakfast within a short walk, making a morning meal convenient even without a hotel restaurant. A large Coop supermarket is adjacent for groceries.

The apartment itself does not feature a pool, spa, or gym. For outdoor activity, rafting opportunities exist in the wider Bologna area. The property's central location makes it easy to access the city's cultural sites, parks, and walking tours instead.

All apartments have free Wi-Fi, air conditioning, heating, and a lift. Luggage storage is complimentary before check-in and after check-out, enabling a full day of sightseeing for late flights. Reception offers private check-in/out and express services; staff speak French and Italian. The property has 24-hour security, key access, smoke alarms, and fire extinguishers. Parking is not available on site. Cots can be provided on request. Bicycles must be taken into the apartment or locked on the street.
