Annalisa gave me info about the neighborhood and was patient with me speaking Italian slowly and imprecisely. Una donna gentilissima. My room was comfortable and clean. It is in a corner so there are windows on two sides and there is a small balcony. I appreciated having a desk in my room, the opportunity to wash a few clothes, and to cook a bit in the very well-equipped kitchen. The handsome cat was shy and watched me from a distance. His box is outside on a balcony so there was no cat smell at all. I enjoyed my week in Milan at Annalisa’s apartment.
