Simone’s place is in a really great part of town - a stone’s throw from the Naviglio Grande canal and it’s bars and restaurants, and just over a 20 minute walk to the Duomo.
As a host, Simone is stellar. Great communication, and lots of thorough recommendations. We went on his advice to the seafood restaurant Il Faro and it was a real highlight of our trip.
The walls are quite thin so there can be noise from outside, but this wasn’t really an issue for us. Also, because of the large size of the livingroom, it could feel quite cold in the morning but that’s understandable in freezing temperatures at this time of year and before the heating kicked in!
If you’re looking for a quirky place to stay, with plenty on your doorstep without the feel of a city centre, this is a great option!
