Lella’s apartment is a perfect pick for a stay in Milan.
First the location is excellent. It is a short walk from the metro stop and it is just a few very quick metro stops to the Duomo (the center of Milan). There is a small grocery shop on the corner and restaurants/bars in walking distance. It’s a quiet urban neighborhood.
Once you arrive, check in is great. Lella or one of her partners meets you at the apartment. You do need to choose a meeting time during the check in window so they can arrange to be there. We were a little late for our time, but communicated with them about our updates and they were graciously accommodating. The person that checked us in was delightful. She was welcoming and gave us a quick tour and overview.
The apartment is very much as shown on the site. It is stylish with a mid-century mod design set in an older building. It has comfortable furnishings, a well appointed kitchen, and all the expected home amenities.
We are a group of 5 and stayed comfortably. Each couple had individual rooms, although one is smaller with a double sized bed. It was perfect for the younger couple in our group. There is a pullout sofa in the living room where our teen son slept. He was actually so comfortable on the sofa that he never pulled out the bed!
I highly recommend staying at Lella’s apartment. She is a fantastic host. Her apparent is lovely, well priced, and in a great location.
