The artists’ space is a perfect place in which to enjoy a truly artistic milieu. It is also an excellent base from which to appreciate the treasures of Bologna. The flat itself is graced with the striking paintings and sculptures of the host, Ian. In addition the spacious interior is full of genuinely stylish furniture and fascinating ‘objets d’art.’ The unconventional and original space benefits from high ceilings, a large open-plan living area, the proximity of a pedestrianised zone - as well as the atmosphere of a friendly and vibrant local culture. Set in secure accommodation and enjoying certain open views the artists’ space presents an ideal location for getting the best out of a visit to the wonderful city of Bologna. I have no hesitation in very strongly recommending Ian’s flat.
