Elena'a place is right smack in the "golden triangle" fashion district. You're literally sleeping next to Fendi, Armani, LV, Prada etc...Elena is a great host and communication with her has been smooth throughout! She is proactive and will help you throughout your stay. Within 3 minutes walk you get great eateries both expensive and affordable, depending on your budget. For me, I enjoyed my morning run (10 -15 mins) to the park in front of the Gallery of Modern Art, after which I enjoyed a sumptuous breakfast at the gallery cafe. Also, you are 3 mins walk away from a metro train station, and within 10 mins walk from Duomo and the Emmanuele vittoria galleria! Highly recommended for any solo travellers or a couple.
