We had 3 days in Milan. We came in kind of late, and Bruna directed us to the Canal Zone for dinner -- a short walk across the park. Getting to the duomo is maybe a 15/20 min walk (as advertized) and there's plenty to see along the way. An open secret if you plan to stay a few days -- city bike rental. 6 eu for the week. Drivers are more courteous with bikes here than ANYWHERE I've been in America. You can set that p at the duomo.

The room - big enough for a table and chairs, bed is big and comfortable, balcony for morning coffee -- just great. The room is very private, so there's no discomfort from sharing a room in Bruna's house. Bruna is a fine hostess, and gives you information, conversation, or coffee when you want it.

All in all, the experience exceeded my expectations in every way.
