Valentina was a wonderful host, making the stay so very easy. She offered a fantastic introduction to the city with a list of Milan's cafe's, restaurants, bars & shops, all of which were great & not at all touristic. The apartment was perfect & just as it had been described. As was the surrounding neighbourhood, with a beautifully local feel that was safe & a short (and beautiful) walk to central Milano. If I could help it, I wouldn't stay anywhere else- Isola was a truly gorgeous part of the city.
