Maria's apartment was an absolute pleasure to stay in for my journey to Milano, and I stayed 6 nights. I am an artist and professor of art, so visually interesting spaces are a joy to me. This apartment did not disappoint. Everything is well designed, and there are small interesting lighting fixtures and fascinating books throughout the space.
The neighborhood is also an excellent location - very conveniently located in a hip area just north of Brera, the arts and cultural distinct near Milan center. There is a metro station literally 2 minutes from the door, so you can travel anywhere in town very quickly. There are many excellent shops, restaurants and bars also right outside.
I would stay here again any time - it was the perfect location for my trip.
