Lovely apartment with awesome hosts!
Giuilo is the best host!! Every time I come to Italy, I always try to stay at Giuilo’s apartments!
Check in was super easy and the building is super nice! The apartment is really lovely and overlooks a nice courtyard.
It’s location is really near Centrale so it’s a perfect spot if you plan to make Milan your base while traveling to other parts of Italy/Europe.
The apartment was well stocked with a stove, full size refrigerator, oven, washing machine and hot water boiler, among other appliances.
For the American tourists, it’s good to note that there’s no microwave, but that’s pretty normal for Europe I think. But I find it just fine to heat things over the stove.
The AC is a portable unit where you stick the tube out the window. It did a good job keeping the bedroom cool.
Just down stairs from the apartment is a quaint Italian bar that serves really good pasta and coffee. I could totally see myself having lunch there almost everyday!
For transit, the apartment is walking distance from the Sondrio stop and Centrale.
Since Centrale can be really scary at night, as is with many main stations in any major city (mainly drunk looking people and hooligan loiters), I would recommend using the Sondrio (M3) stop when coming back late night. Giuilo recommended this to me and I never had any issues coming home alone late at night.
Lastly, Giuilo and Francesca (the co-host), went above and beyond upgrading the internet when I was there!!! My husband was having some issues with the Zoom calls cutting out, and Giulio and Francesca sprang into action and had it fixed in no-time!
If you are lucky enough to find an apartment available with Giulio, don’t hesitate to book! I’m already looking forward to my next stay with Giulio!!!
