Donatella's apartment was my first AirB&B experience and it exceeded all expectations. The apartment is on the 5th floor, has an elevator and two terraces. it is very clean, organized and beautifully designed. There is a supermarket 1 block away, a great gelato shop across the street and the navigli area is a short walk. The bus stops every 5-7 minutes in front and brings you to the center of Milan or the subway in 15 minutes or so it seemed. I can't say enough good things about the host Donatella! Not speaking Italian I was hesitant about being outside the center of Milan. However, she quickly explained how to use both subway and bus, how to get to areas of interest , including the Milan expo and recommended places tourists usually miss. She made me lunch and we had a wonderful conversation about art, politics and Sicily. She told me she is new to AirB&B but she has already perfected her role. Thank you for a wonderful trip to Milan!
