I stayed with a friend at Alessandro´s place for a weekend. It is located very conveniently close to the central station and Porta Venezia with its many cafés. The appartment is very well maintained, clean and funrished with everything one can ask for. The check in was super easy and the exchange with Alessandro was prompt and uncomplicated. He was very accomodating and helpful. I would not hesitate to return for my next stay in Milan.
