Luca’s apartment was easily our favorite apartment that we’ve stayed at in Italy. It is clean, stylish, and homey. The walls were covered in tips on how to use public transport and sightseeing in Milan. I wish we stayed there for more than one night! Luca’s father checked us in and was very kind. The apartment also had air conditioning, a washer, and dryer, which was awesome.
It is a little removed from the tourist stuff in Milan, but there are bus stops with less than a 5 minute walk away. Little tip: download the Milan transit app and you can buy bus tickets on your phone! This saved me a lot of money and time and also helped me plan routes to where I needed to go. It made having to get to the train station by 6:45 so much easier.
Lastly, I read some reviews about people feeling unsafe. I did not feel unsafe at all and think that people only felt that way because there was not a lot of night life near Luca’s place and was very quiet. Just like anywhere else, one should take precautions, but I felt perfectly safe and would absolutely stay at Luca’s place again.
