Valentina is a warm, welcoming, gracious host. You feel right at home as soon as you step in her beautiful house which is in a really peaceful and safe neighbourhood, only steps away from the closest subway station.
We kept our communication alive from the time I booked until we stayed at her place and despite delaying our arrival for two days she offered to extend our stay at no extra charge, something which was over and above her responsibilities as an Airbnb host.
Our intention for this trip was to book at least five months in advance due to the high demand for beds during the biannual 'Euroluce' & 'Salone Del Mobile' exhibitions. Booking our stay proved to be a difficult task as everyone seemed to be eager to raise their prices when they realised our stay coincided with the event. Valentina was the only one who accepted our booking and did not resort to a last-minute price change. That was very professional of her and we are very grateful for that.
The room is just perfect with a comfortable bed and with more space than you'll ever need for your stay. It overlooks a park and you will be waking up to the sound of chirping birds! She provides tea and a kettle in the room and, most importantly, en-suite facilities! With an optional €5 extra you get to enjoy fruits, yoghurt, toast, tea/coffee, corn flakes, jam/Nutella and biscuits for breakfast. If you are lucky you also get to taste her mum's delicious cake.
I would not hesitate to stay with her next time I find myself in Milan. Valentina is everything you can hope to find in a host and much, much more. Thank you for everything!
