Rick's studio space is beautiful and well done. It took us a minute to figure out that it is accessed from the alley behind the house on Arthur St. The studio was well decorated, clean, and comfortable. Rick manages multiple properties and doesn't linger around to chat much, but told us he lives right in the neighborhood should we need anything. As a previous reviewer said, the studio is located in a historical, but less upscale part of town that seems to be making a positive turn around. It's nice to see people like Rick investing in the area and affecting change. We cannot attest to walkability to downtown Nashville, as we never did so, but I'd imagine it would be a 30-40 minute walk considering it is a 5-10 minute drive. Overall lovely experience and friendly host.
