We stayed here for three nights at the start of a two week train tour of Italy. I’d never been to Milan before, but heard good things about the Navigli canal area. Ross E Lele’s place was a great location to experience this exciting district and the centre of Milan beyond.
Communication before hand was great and the welcome from Ross was warm and helpful. There is also a folder of useful information at the flat - I love it when hosts do this! The flat itself is a stylish well thought out space and quiet away from the bustle of the Navigli.
The flat was easy to find from Porta Genova metro and really well connected. We never had to wait more than a few minutes for a tram at the end of the street - this takes you straight to Duomo. Or it’s a ten minute walk to the metro, which takes you to Centrale station and onto the lakes or beyond. A bit less than ten minutes takes you into the Navigli, which has a great selection of bars and restaurants and a lovely atmosphere.
This will certainly be our first choice when we return to Milan. We found better bars/food here than the centre of the city!
