Our stay in Annalisa's Milano apartment was wonderful! She was extremely thoughtful to include providing milk, cereal, juice, biscuits, coffee, jam, butter, and even some beer and water upon arrival. Due to getting lost in the train station, we were almost two hours late to check in. Annalisa met us at the street level and spent almost an hour at the apartment, answering questions and showing us around. She even called a taxi service for us which was helpful since no one in our group spoke Italian. She messaged several times during our stay to make sure everything was going well and was always prompt when answering questions.
The apartment itself is very modern, clean, and spacious. For families with small children: There are stairs with large gaps that present a fall danger. We put suitcases and chairs around to prevent our crawling baby from getting too close. Not a problem for anyone but small kids or people with mobility issues going up and down since the stairs are narrow and steep. Everything was clean and new looking. If I could suggest anything for the decor, it would be the occasional thick rug. The floors especially downstairs are quite hard. Again, probably only a concern for families with small children. It was nice to have three levels in the apartment so everyone had more privacy than usual in an AirBnB.
The apartment is very close to Porta Garibaldi which is an easy connection to Malpensa Airport via the Malpensa Express. (Pro tip: Malpensa Express usually leaves from track 13. Another pro tip for family with kids: If you turn out of the apartment and go left, you will see a glass covered entrance to the station. That is the closest ramp and it will take you the length of the tracks into the station. Pass the last set of stairs and you will see the lift. Lifts can be difficult to find in Italian stations.) Being so close to the train station made visiting Milan and also the nearby lake towns very doable.
Highly recommend Annalisa's apartment!
