Myself and 2 friends stayed at Elena's apartment. The apartment itself is beautiful and had everything we needed (extra towells, champagne glasses, basic pantry items etc etc). We all found the beds really comfortable also. Also important for us was to feel enough space for 3 adults, which it did w also the fabulous lounge and dining areas. The location of this apartment was also key for us- this particular area of Milan is a fabulous place to be. We could walk to the Duomo within 10-15 minutes at a leisurely window shopping pace. A couple of great night spots (navigli canals) and the beautiful piazza w Roman columns were a 5 minute walk. Elena met us at the apartment for check in and out. Elena was a fabulous host, who offered to help us with anything (including meal reservation, the best local restaurants, shopping areas-oh the shoes...). We actually liked the fact that there were a few flights of stairs so we could make room for the next meal! Stay here and you will be very happy!
