Chantal is a great hostess who loves her city, knows it inside out and will provide you with great hints on how to make the best of your time in a Milano. I enjoyed the quiet of her back bedroom along with the air con on a very hot summer. The mattress was too hard for my liking, but it's a matter of personal preference. The apartment, set along a busy avenue was noisy with all windows opened, but the location was convenient to shopping, dining and reaching the centre by transit. All in all, the friendliness of my hostess made it a pleasant and memorable experience.
