Le Dodici Porte - Porta Maggiore 9 By Bologna District

Posizione dell'appartamento, pulizia degli ambienti e dimensioni delle camere

Niente

It was a very comfortable apartment with large rooms and great furniture. It was very quite. We felt very secure in the property. It was awesome to have a washing machine in the apartment.

Some balcony furniture would have made our stay better as we like to sit outside and have coffee.

Great location, very close to the train station and a short 20 minute walk to the city center. New and very clean. Comfortable beds and fully equipped. Great value for money.

It would be great if there were more glasses, plates and etc (but it’s really not a big deal!)

The apartment was clean and had a large balcony. We were allowed to check out two hours later.

When you pay around 180 euros per night for an apartment with 3 beds behind the train station in Bologna, you can expect an almost perfect accommodation. This was not the case. From the balcony, you look out onto a construction site just a few meters from the building, where workers and craftsmen make a lot of noise on weekdays (check my pictures). On the day of arrival, the doorbell rang late in the evening. Four tourists were standing at the door, claiming the apartment. It turned out that the rental company had accidentally given the four tourists the same information about the address, the code for the front door, and the key box. This costed us half an hour of late-night discussions. Unbelievable! There was also room for improvement in several areas: Two rolls of toilet paper for three days and three people was just enough for us. For other guests, that might be tight. There were no dish towels or kitchen rolls in the kitchen. Three coffee cups is also a joke. Just like the three capsules for the coffee machine – in the nearby supermarket at the train station, exactly these capsules were sold out. If you want to do laundry, you have to buy a whole pack of tabs yourself, as none are provided. On the balcony, the only furnishing was one chair.
