I wish I could give this host and family 10 stars. On our way into Milan we were victims of a tourist scam where a scooter drives up and slashes your tire, and then they rob you while you pull over. Martina kindly delayed her weekend travel for 3+ hours to help us file the Police Report and was available to make calls for us and translate the first few days. She went over and above to help us. We are grateful. The apartment is wonderful - very big with lots of light and we loved being in a local neighbourhood on a tram line and with bars & restaurants. The proximity to Parco Sempione was a bonus to walk through a nice garden to the historic centro, or walk our dogs. Well equipped kitchen and nice hot water for a bath. Having the secured parking also helped to keep our minds at ease. Grazie Mille!
