Really nice two bedroom flat for a family weekend in Milan (two adults and two elementary aged children). The neighborhood is great—lots of restaurants and an easy (straight line) 30 minute walk to the Duomo. When you first get out of the cab a block from the apartment (road does not allow cabs to drive on it) the area seems super sketchy with lots of graffiti. The actual apartment complex is quite posh—secure gate and upscale flats. Not ideal for light sleepers (very loud outside on Friday night) or if you want to spend a lot of time lounging in the flat (small couch for 2). Also, lower level bedroom stairs are very steep so not ideal for older visitors or someone with a very young child.
We walked all over the city and were very happy to be outside the main tourist drag and enjoying the funkier canal neighborhood.
