Valentina's apartment has all the charm, character and quirkiness you would expect from an older building (and as you can see in the photos). Everything was spotlessly clean. I travelled with my sister and one of us took the double bed and the other the sofa bed downstairs, which worked well as we also had privacy. The air conditioning was also great to have in August. The terrace is a lovely spot to enjoy a morning coffee. The hustle and bustle of Naviglio Grande is gone as soon as you reach the courtyard of the building but it was nice having it close, especially when it was time for an aperitif. The location also means it's easy to get around by public transport. Valentina was very friendly from reservation to departure and easy to contact by WhatsApp or text. The check in/out was easy even though we didn't meet.
