My room at Marina's completely matched the description. It was comfortable and clean. The room faces an inner court and is very quiet. I was very happy that I could easily adjust the heat in my room as the weather turned cold and rainy. When I arrived Marina was out of town but had arranged for her delightful friend Francesca to meet me. She not only showed me around the apartment but also showed me how to get around Central Milan. It is a 15 minute walk to the Cathedral and centro and if you are tired of walking you can take the tram which stops within a half block. I am a single senior woman and felt very safe here even walking home from town or from the tram in the evening. Marina arrived home during my stay. She is an interesting and gracious hostess. I would definitely stay here again should I return to Milan.
