A practical flat for visiting Milan, very well connected by tram, metro, and buses to the entire city, with tram 2 stopping right at the door and taking you to the Duomo in 12 minutes! The canal side is lively, but the sleeping side of the flat is extremely quiet with double glazing. The spaces are compact but with lots of storage space, and with just enough room on the balcony to see the fabulous view while sipping a coffee or drink. The flat has all the necessary comforts, while still retaining a certain Bohemian patina, a holdover from the days when the area was a favorite with young artists. Nowadays, some of the restaurants along the canal are pseudo-chic tourist traps, but Karin kindly gave us tips about more authentic places. She warmly received us on arrival, always a great plus, and made us feel right at home. Many thanks to her for a wonderful stay!
