Our train was delayed arriving and Felipe and Elizabeth kindly waited for us to arrive--along with a bottle of champagne! He and Elizabeth welcomed us to the apartment and explained in detail how to feel at home. They also recommended restaurants to eat in the neighborhood, and places to visit.
The apartment was exactly as it was listed: charming and quiet. The building itself was centered around an old courtyard, which was a pleasure to walk through. Inside, the studio is laid out well to accommodate the kitchen, bathroom, washing machine, and large bed. The art and books made us feel welcome and comfortable. Finally, it was hot that weekend in Milan, but the fan worked well to keep us cool.
We were in Milan for a wedding, so we didn't get to do a lot of sightseeing, but we loved what we saw of the neighborhood, especially its bustling nightlife and amazing food. We were also able to quickly move to the other areas of the city we wanted to see, in about 10-15 minutes.
