Alberto is a friendly host with a lovely, newly decorated bachelor pad, which has a comfy pullout/fold-down bed, all the mod-cons – and great views – in a secure apartment building. There's a bakery downstairs, a supermarket two blocks away, one of Milan's top pizza takeaways (Al Pizzetta), as well as a heavenly gelato shop, around the corner. Tram stop and taxi rank right outside the building. Fifteen-minute walk to Duomo. Great little find.
