Excellent location. It was our first International Air BnB and I was a bit nervous and my husband was extremely nervous, but everything was excellent. Close to public transit if you need it, but even my 6 year old was able to walk to the park(&play), trek to El Duomo/La Scala/shop, & have energy to play again in the park on the walk home. Also, grocery stores, bakeries, pharmacies, and restaurant are plentiful in the area.
