You want to experience how local people live? This place is for you! I fully understand Airbnb nothing is perfect but that is OK. I stayed with Marco's place for 3 nights. I arrived very late due to my train running very late. Marco was very patient and able to communicate with me during my travel time and when I got to the address he was there outside the building waiting for my arrival. He was very funny and gives me a little bit of history about the building. This place has an elevator and very clean building overall. Marco walk me through all the way to make sure I will have everything I need and also to make sure that I will be able to use everything inside my apartment without trying to figure things out on my own (VERY HELPFUL) remember this is not a hotel, this is AIRBNB so you are staying at a place that is very different from a hotel setup. You have everything you need at this place. Americans aren't accustomed to small things so if you are looking for that kind of space and you can afford it look for a bigger place but that's money talking. This place is super close to everything and I've walked all day and seen majority of the places I want to see. Milan Cathedral was about 10 minutes walk and the most expensive shopping mall is just around the corner. You won't have any problem looking for places to eat there are tons of restaurants to choose from and shopping? Yes they are everywhere. Things to consider: This is a studio type. Like I said if you want to experience how local people live in Milan this place is for you. Bathroom: Sink, Toilette and Shower is not separate. You take a shower next to sink and toilette so everything gets wet. Planning ahead is important. It's not that complicated to do. There's a humidifier that you need to take care of while it's running to make sure your bathroom doesn't get stinky. There's no window in this bathroom so the only way to dry the area is to use the humidifier. When the tank gets full of water you just dump it to the toilette and that's it. Bed: Queen size bed. Very comfortable and I slept well. Kitchen: Very small but it was designed well. For me that's all I needed and I really enjoyed it. You have a washer where you can wash your clothes but no dryer. Planning is everything! AC: Air condition works perfectly but there's a loud noise coming from it. It didn't bother me because I was living like a local Milano:-) but I mentioned this to Marco and he will investigate more. Loft: There's an extra bed in the room you'll have to use the stairs to get to the main bed. Laying down you can touch the ceiling but very cute and helpful for those who argue...
