I was in Alberta's apartment for the whole month of January. The apartment is cozy, bright, well furnished and very comfortable in every way. It is very quiet, overlooking a beautiful courtyard, therefore you don't hear any street noise or neighbours. It feels very intimate and safe. Nicely decorated, very comfortable bed, large couch, nice little kitchen and a huge amount of storage space. For a person as obsessed as I am with neatness, there couldn't be a more perfect place: everything I owned was put away and there was still a lot of room left. There is also a storage room next to the aprtment where to put suitcases. A walk-in closet with many large drawers and another closet next the front door where you can put everything you need before you go out are very convenient and a real rarity. The apartment is a gem in a neighbourhood that is itself a gem. A perfect combination of a large metropolitan city and a sense of a village life extending for a couple of blocks, right in the center of Milan. An older building with the traditional Milan courtyard, a street with literally everything you need: from a small, but very well supplied supermarket two steps away from the main door (a real fabuolous experience!), a bakery with the best focaccia in Milan five steps away, and a myriad of little bars, restaurants, bakeries, even a frozen food store, hardware store, little boutiques, dry cleaning and pharmacies, etc, etc. You feel you are in a very unique place, a block away is the Navigli area, with the most dynamic nighlife in Milan, you are a 20 minute walk from Piazza del Duomo, and yet you are in this animated and vibrant two blocks full of little stores, with the feeling of being part of a neihbourhood's life. A very special experience. The location is excellent. Alberta is the best. Welcoming, patient, kind, professional and warm. She goes out of her way to help in any way possible. She is extremely responsive and friendly and available for any questions or issue you may have. The perfect hostess. I have been in many airbnb but none of them beat Alberta's apartment. A full A++ for the whole experience. Highly recommended.
