Fantastic apartment, it is much more spacious than it appears in the photographs. Communication with Paolo was very easy, we were greeted warmly and with some nice touches such as some pasta, beer and coffee etc. to make on arrival after our journey which saved us wandering round looking for a supermarket immediately.
The apartment was super clean and had everything that we needed; I couldn't think of anything more.

The location is a 5 minute walk to the large park, many restaurants and shops etc. We walked through the park to reach the centre, the Duomo and other Milan main attractions. There is also lots of information provided and maps in the apartment. The noise from the road wasn't too bothersome most of the time but I am a very light sleeper, so probably wouldn't be an issue at all for most people.
