I am not a demanding traveller. Give me a bed (this one was a great one), a shower, internet and a little place to boil some water for a tea or a cup of coffee and I am a happy camper. The location might not be really central but it's close to the public transport (a 10 min walk to the closest metro station or a bus just few steps from the house). The area itself is very calm. Don't get fooled by maps. The famous Navigli area is not that far.
I spent my days exploring the city and Luciano's place was a perfect hideout to take some rest and recharge.
Even if I did not meet Luciano, I was on touch with him all the time, as he was a really caring host.
