The overall experience was great. We arrived and his mother let us into the apartment as Alessandro could not meet us. They let us drop off our luggage early, and cleaning was done while we were out for the day.

The place was clean, well equipped despite not having a full kitchen. A gracious amount of towels and toilet paper was left for our short stay. Alessandro was very responsive. Bed was very comfortable. The room is at the rear of the building next to a courtyard on the first floor. We liked having a coffee from the nespresso maker in the morning!

Brera is a nice neighborhood close to restaurants and shops. centrally located and a short walk from the Duomo and city center. Alessandro's guide for restaurants was helpful.
