Vacation rentals in San Donato-San Vitale, Bologna

I would highly recommend this Airbnb to anyone visiting Bologna. We stayed for 3 weeks and felt right at home from day one. The location is brilliant very walkable into the centre or to the local shops. It is very peaceful and you feel in a real community. The apartment likewise had everything you would need for longer stays and we felt upset to leave. Great host who is really responsive.

Almost everything was great, especially the kitchen and bathroom. Since Italy has stringent recycling and garbage disposal rules, it was unfortunate that the apartment did not have presort bins. Worse yet, the previous tenant lost the key card needed to dispose of miscellaneous waste (i.e. stuff that isn't simple paper, plastic, glass, or organic - which is more than one would think) so we needed to be rather creative about that. It would have been better had we been told about it ahead of time. The other oddity was that the dining table had only one chair, making it an awkward arrangement for two people. The kitchen counter had two stools but we needed that space for makeshift recycling bins. The apartment faces the courtyard which avoids all street noise but not air conditioning unit noise should you want to leave the window open. It's a 15 minute walk to the train station but 25 minutes to the old city center. However, bus service is plentiful. All in all, we would stay here again.

We had a lovely stay at Ilenas place! The apartment was nice and clean and location was perfect for us. We needed a place close to the airport but it was also very easy to take a bus to city center! Neighborhood was calm and safe. Ilena was a lovely and helpful host. :)

Wonderful hospitality, beautiful and functional house. A place to come back to!

Alessandra is a great guest. She is very eager to make your stay as pleasant as possible. The apartment is very spacious and cozy and has a nice wood-burning stove, where we liked to sit in the evening. The views and the nature surrounding the house are beautiful. We enjoyed the stay very much and would come back any time.

Vittorio and Rosa Maria were the perfect hosts and couldn’t do enough for us. Vittorio provided great recommendations for restaurants and places to visit including a winery and cheese making factory. Also we had a fantastic meal cooked by Rosa Maria. It is a good base to visit other cities such as Modena and Parma (and others) by road or by train. The house was spacious, well equipped and felt like more like a family home with books, comfortable sofas a lovely sitting room and bedrooms. We very much enjoyed our stay and had a great holiday. Thank you Vittorio and Rosa Maria!

A place where I would definitely stay again! Excellent service from everyone and the place is wonderful!

thank you for your hospitality, everything was perfect and as described, you were very kind
