We really enjoyed our stay at Tadzio's apartment, we felt very comfortable from the moment we stepped in and Tadzio gave us a brief tour to show us where everything is. But it helped that everything was also in a very logical place and easy to use. I really like the modern design of the apartment.
The apartment is well designed and newly decorated. I don't think the photos do the place justice. It looks good in the photos, but having stayed there it's better in real life. I prefer the homely/cosy style versus that of a hotel and was excellent value for money!
This was my first time using Airbnb, but Tadzio's was a warm, friendly and approachable host. He gave me a welcome tour so I felt comfortable in using all the facilities in his apartment. He is very responsive at replying to messages (I think everytime I wrote him a message I had a reply in less than 5 minutes). His hosting has made me very confident in using Airbnb in the future.
The apartment is located near the central station and only a short walk (approx 5-10 mins), which was ideal for us as we came to Bergamo airport and got the coach to central Milan. I felt the area was really safe (we walked back at all hours of the day and night) and there were loads of nice bakeries within walking distance for breakfast and nice bars for an evening aperitif.
Milan has really good transport links, with the Metro, buses, and trams all nearby the apartment, but we didn't make the most of it and chose to walk around to get to know the city more.
It is unfortunate that I only stayed at Tadzio's apartment for 2 nights, as we really enjoyed our stay. When we come back to Milan, we will definitely stay at Tadzio's apartment again!
