Alessandra's flat in Milan is a real standout. It is large and roomy, beautifully decorated, has everything that you could want and has a good location that is not too big a walk to the main railway station. However, the standout feature is Alessandra herself. She is a wonderful host who was so helpful with all our questions and even provided some wine and homemade biscuits. She kindly ordered us a taxi for an early start on a bus tour and was there to see that it arrived on time. We only wish that we had had more time to stay in this lovely flat. Alessandra is the kind of host that makes using Airbnb on your travels such an enjoyable experience.
