If you are looking for a not so expensive but great place to stay in Milan, I would definitely recommend Elizabeth's flat. Even though the flat isn't directly situated in the city centre, the nearby bus and metro will take you everywhere. The flat was clean and rather big with all the necessary tidbits you might enjoy (tea, coffee, croissants etc.). The owners are very approachable and nice. In the nearby area you will find bars and supermarkets. We enjoyed out stay a lot and would come back again.
