We stayed at Carlo's apartment in central Milan during our honeymoon in Europe this past June.

It is very accurately described as an "elegant apartment" - everything in it seems to have been selected and arranged according to Carlo's impeccable taste, and we found ourselves wanting to live there permanently!

The apartment is also very conveniently located on Corso Italia. Whilst the nearest metro stop isn't too close by, you will not need the train system as Piazza Duomo (the centre of Milan) is a short tram ride or walk away.

The tram departs immediately outside Carlo's apartment building, which is an extremely well-preserved Art Nouveau (it appears) building with an internal garden.

In terms of internal facilities, Carlo's apartment had everything we required, including an air-conditing system that was much needed during a heat wave in Milan!

Carlo had kindly left us some suggestions regarding the local area, which were helpful as - although we know Milan quite well - we were unfamiliar with the location of the closest supermarket and bar for morning cappuccini.

Also very useful to us, as we were travelling for a long period, was access to Carlo's wi-fi. This really assisted us in checking up on future bookings, and also in planning our days in Milan.

We cannot review this experience enthusiastically enough, and very much hope to be back!
