Description

This studio is the result of a transformation from a former drying room into a traditional *altana*—a rare architectural feature of Bologna. It is a small, independent house, free on all four sides, nestled among the iconic red rooftops of Bologna *la Dotta*. This distinctive and unusual space embodies a unique urban reality, offering an exceptional perspective of the city's historic skyline. Discover a charming mini loft in the heart of the historic center, located on Via Riva Reno. Recently renovated, this property exudes tranquility thanks to its serene atmosphere and enchanting rooftop views. Its strategic location places it just a short stroll from Piazza Maggiore, while a pleasant walk connects you effortlessly to the central train station and the University. Situated on the top (third) floor of a classic Bolognese building (please note: there is no elevator), this cozy loft is the ideal solution for those planning a short stay in the city—from a minimum of one month up to ten months—and for those seeking independent living. Thanks to its comfortable sofa bed, it can also accommodate couples, though in my opinion, it remains more comfortable for a single guest. *Once inside the apartment, guests can manually close the access panel, making the surface completely walkable and seamlessly integrated into the living space.* The space features a fully equipped kitchenette with all necessary utensils, along with modern comforts such as a flat-screen LED TV and air conditioning. Experience the perfect blend of historic charm and contemporary convenience in this exclusive urban retreat....
