Reviews of Petronio Residence

The apartment was spacious, very comfortable and at the most central spot of the whole city. We really loved the convenience.

There was quite strong cigarette smell in the room we had on 3rd floor. The owner instead of trying to remove the smell was arguing with us there is no cigarette smoke.

Property was clean however the shower tray had quite a bit of mould on the corners which can be easily removed so showering wasn’t a pleasant experience.

Shower tray could’ve been cleaner. Milk pods could’ve been added to the coffee tray, and a tissue roll.

Excellent location and spacious bedroom. Air conditioning was really needed and appreciated. Easy access to washer and dryer on our floor. Also loved the keyless entry.

It was clean, brand new, great location and great service!

Nothing

Great location for exploring Bologna. Super cozy with everything needed for a short visit. Having a lift and washing machine (second floor) also made life a bit easier. Loved our stay here and would happily return. Also had great comms with the hosts.

Location great. Plenty of a nice Restaurants / Shops, virtually on the doorstep. Lovely establishment (Pizzeria Gingio) literally 20ft from the apartment entrance where we would have a morning Coffee + Croissant to start our day and also finish with a nice Nightcap. Due to the timing of our stay we didn't get to meet the Petronio Residence team, however we saw evidence of the apartment being cleaned / tidied after returning from our adventures. Keypad entry was great! No worrying about losing keys. Lift was available, so no problems with dragging luggage up staircases. We were on the 1st floor of the building. Bologna is a lovely place to visit; locals are very friendly and welcoming and the city is packed with both fascinating and beautiful architecture. There are also bus tours (with commentaries) that will give you an idea of where to visit. There are also many 'hidden treasures' to be found down narrow streets that are worth investigating.

Very small issue (that I'm sure the Petronio Team would have addressed if we had raised it) was the built-in safe did not work. One further issue that both my wife and I found awkward (but not insurmountable) was the size of the Shower Cubicle in the bathroom. The only way to describe it was 'very cozy'. Taking a showers were not the highlight of our days. The shower equipment was all clean and of a high quality, however the depth of the cubicle made it challenging to get into / move around in.

LOCATION! 1/2 block from the towers and 1 block from Piazza Maggiore. Clean and simple decor. Comfortable and close enough to drop off shopping bags or drop in for a snack mid-day.

The location is extremely good. Impero caffe is at one minute walk where you can serve a very good breakfast. Even you are on a very busy street, the windows isolate the noise very well.

A water bottle would have been nice.

This apartment is perfectly located, extremely clean and well fitted out.

The front door needs attention, as one has to slam it shut.

The location was very central- within easy walking distance of attractions and restaurants. The apartment was easy to access and felt safe. It was clean and comfortable and was a great place to stay during our city break.

There was a mirror in the bathroom and one on the inside of the shared wardrobe door (in hallway) but additional mirrors in the bedrooms would have been more convenient.

Location and very comfy beds

Perfectly located in the centre of the historic district and accessible by taxi and bus. It was such a pleasure to be able to walk to tourist sights. The beds were so comfortable (I like firm), the kitchen was nicely maintained and the washroom was clean and modern. The management was off-site but responded quickly to our messages. It was like having a friend around the corner!

My mother is 94 yo and does not walk too well. The entrance has a few shallow stairs, which I did not expect. Luckily it was well-lit so she could see where to step. A handrail on the wall would be very useful.

no bureaucracy or time for checkin - hosts extremely accessible via chat - couldnt think of a better location - appartments very isolated against outside noise

This apartment is in an amazing location in the middle of Bologna! We had a really comfortable stay and it was super handy being able to use the communal washer/dryer. Would definitely stay again.

The location is extremely good, the staff was very helpful and they surpassed expectations. The apartment was very nice, clean and convenient. I would strongly recommend Petronio Residence as a place to tour Bologna, it’s truly in the heart of the action!
