Staying with Donatella and her family is a wonderful experience.
You can have the best of two worlds, the privacy of an adult and the southing presence of warm hearted, family people close by.
The house is very clean [cleaner than you expect, really!] , all the utilities are functionable and accessible to you.
You 'll never be cold or feel neglected. Donatella is always available to help if needed, and although see doesn't have a habit of speaking in English, she can understand pretty well and she never fails to help you for whatever reason.
The rooms are located in a way that you'll feel you have your own space and time. You'll probably have a friend in the next room which does not disturb your experience at all.
Also the house is located very close to Metro Yellow line (fermata Macciachini) which is really a very good placement in the city because you can have access pretty much everywhere by feet or transport . There's also a big club located close by, if you wish to have a night out. But especially if you have to go from Bovisa to the Center every day, then this is the ideal place, being exactly at the middle of those.
All and all, a very friendly experience, with a touch o childhood nostalgia, perfect for new comers who wish to have a place that reminds them home, until they get used to Milan culture.
Thank you for everything Donatella, it was pleasure, privilege and honor to stay with you and your family!
