Quick summary: great location in Navigli neighborhood. Spacious, fairly accurate to the listing but a little more dated than it looks in the photos. You’re in an apartment building with actual residents, so it does give it a true feel for “living” like a local while you stay in the area. If you’re into that.
Pros: Location to really good bars, restaurants, and cafes. Very walkable. On a quiet street just around the corner from the busy canal area. Short walk from Metro station. Check in at the Central Station office was quick and easy, staff was nice. Has a full kitchen, AC in bedroom, big shutter windows in living space. We were given the option to drop off luggage at the unit early before check in if needed which made our early arrival much easier (we hung out in the neighborhood while we waited and didn’t have to drag all of our bags around).
Cons: Closer to check-in and right after, host became unresponsive. We had a bad experience upon arrival to the AirBnB unit (previous guest was still there hanging out for a few hours well after specified check-out, and I notified the host immediately but they still haven’t responded to me or followed up since). Cleaning service people were nice and helped us get them out before our 3pm check-in. Because we were given the option to leave our bags before check-in per the host, this felt really unsafe and weren’t expecting to run into this problem. Fortunately nothing happened. Could be a guest issue, but we still expect the host to be on top of it for smooth check outs/check ins so situations like this don’t happen.
Overall: a convenient stay if you don’t expect to be in the apartment for a lot of the time. Was good enough to rest, sleep, and go about our day exploring.
