I came to Italy for study and stayed at the Massimo's apartment. This is a small accommodation, but very cozy and comfortable. I really like it, you will find everything you need for a convenient stay. Location in my opinion is excellent, this is a quiet area, not so far from the center, with shops, cafes and a large selection of public transport - tram and bus stops, 2 metro and 1 train stations and all of it is 5-10 minutes walk. Also you can find an beautiful area ("Сity life") near for walking or cycling. But most of all I would like to mention the owner of the apartment. Massimo and his wife Maria are very nice, hospitable and friendly people. You can rely on them, Massimo helped me with a lot of problems that you can face when you come to another city. It is very pleasant to have such kindly people near. I absolutely recommend to stay in this cozy place.
P.S. Don't forget to try one of the best ice cream in Milan, which is located near - Il Massimo del Gelato.
