Bologna is a wonderfully progressive and historical city in many ways; this flat is a cozy and artful space just a short walk from the center of town; you feel part of the city but also have a bit of space in a local neighborhood with tree-lined streets and a few little markets nearby; Annalisa is a warm and welcoming host and she knows the city well; she also has an artist's design background and so the flat is full of wonderful little touches as is her advice to navigating her city; this is truly a sky nest as the stars are visible as you go to sleep; it is a creative space and feels nourishing; it really became a "home" for me in Bologna.
