I had a 3 nights stay at paolo's place and the flat was great, very comfortable. Didnt do much research before the trip and paolo's place got map and guidebooks that are very helpful.
On the night we arrived was a rainy days and because i wasnt familiar with milan so it makes me a little worried for not being about to find his place. But after the first night we are good. The place from milan central train station is about 20mins metro then 10mins bus, then 5mins walking from bus stop.
