Our trip began with a late arrival to Milan - our first predictions were that we arrive at 2am. For our surprise, it was totally OK with Maria and she welcomed us by the door at our arrival, giving us a very warm welcome.
The taxi could not drive to the front of the house, because Navigli is mainly a pedestrian area, but the flat was just around the corner from where the taxi stopped.
The fridge was full of food and Maria also left as a bottle of wine and some drinking water - this was super, since we arrived in the middle of the night.
The flat was as promised - very homey and comfortable, very clean with lots of storage place.
On the balcony it is certainly very nice to enjoy evening drinks and morning coffee.
In our opinion, Navigli is the most beautiful area of Milan, full of life and art. It was also the best area to eat out - the quality of the food was super and the prices very OK.
A superb gelato shop is also located next door :)
The metro station was around the corner and the city center with all the tourist attractions in a walking distance.
Thank you, Maria, for having us, we had a very nice stay with you!
