From start to finish, our stay at Nir's place could not have been more smooth. He was very quick with all communication, gave fantastically clear directions from the train station (the place is sooo convenient to Milano Centrale, btw), and was even waiting outside for us when we arrived (too early for check-in, I might add). He graciously stowed our bags for us, showed us around the neighborhood, and then let us check in hours early. We enjoyed talking to him - he is so genuinely friendly and hospitable. The place itself is well appointed, with fast wifi, a comfortable bed, bottles of water, a host of toiletries, and it was very clean. It is very close to a very central subway stop, as well, which made it easy to get everywhere in the 24 hours we were in Milan. Highly recommend!
