Silvia's apartment is spacious with beautiful furnishings. The little balcony is nice to have overlooking Milan. Convenient to metro,bike rentals, restaurants,and shops in the Navigli canal. area. The Sunday outdoor market along the canal is a treat for antique buys, jewelry, new art and many treasures. Silvia's suggestion for happy hour at Mag and Indiana Post was fun. We came for the Christo art event in the Lake district. Silvia was helpful trying to give us a sense of how hard the transportation would be. We went anyway and had a great time. Only regret, we had 2 and 1/2 days to stay. Fantastic!
