My boyfriend and I stayed at Linda's cozy, quirky apartment for just two nights before having to leave by train. It is conveniently located diagonal from the train station which Linda gave detailed directions to get to from Milano Centrale station. If you're not wanting to go by train, you can also take a taxi or Uber which is less than a 15 minute drive to Milano Centrale.
Communication was wonderful and easy with check in and check out times being flexible; We mainly used WhatsApp and when my boyfriend and I were delayed checking in and had to wait a couple hours for Linda to get off work (which we knew from the beginning and did not mind waiting), Linda kept communication flowing the entire time which we were grateful for. She even met us at the nice little dog park down the street of her house. The park also had wifi!
The apartment is on the 4th floor but the stairs are truly worth it once you're at the top and are able to see the stars from the big skylight windows which you can easily open. The description and pictures depict the apartment well, but does not capture the full atmosphere or Linda's extremely accommodating and thoughtful personality. Every little detail is well thought out and we felt right at home. Linda also provided us with European plug adapter and had many outlets around her home which became extremely useful. If I were to criticize anything, I would just have to say that if you are a taller person you may find it hard to shower since the bathroom is on the smaller side, but it fit us pretty perfectly.
The cat really was a sweetie and kept to herself for the most part; an independent spirit. She slept at the end of our feet which we did not mind at all since she reminded us of our cat back home who does the same thing. I was a little worried with my allergies with the cat since I'm usually allergic, but had no problem at all! Everything was very clean.
I would definitely recommend this place if you enjoy cozy artsy places. You are even allowed to smoke if you wanted to, but don't think the place smells bad or like an ashtray or anything because that is far from the case.
Everything was clean, the bed was comfy, it was close by enough to everything, and Linda was absolutely a wonderful, gracious host who did not hesitate to answer any questions we had.
