My mother and I booked a trip to Milan for a mothers day treat to ourselves and choose to stay in Aga's apartment, Studio Darsena. The reviews were all very good and we were not disappointed!
The apartment was very clean and well presented. It had everything you needed; twin beds, a kitchen, TV, and a brilliant power shower which is better than mine at home. There was even a load of very helpful tourist books which we used daily.

Aga's husband met us at the apartment, he was very welcoming and carried our very heavy suitcase up the stairs. He showed us all the amenities and how to lock and open the door, we felt very safe with the 4 way lock. The courtyard is adorable and one of the neighbours even had a fruit tree growing just above. At night time it was very quiet as the studio is situated at the back of the building.

The location was brilliant! We couldn't of picked a better spot. There was plenty of shops, restaurants, and bars, the food was amazing and cheaper than we thought! The tram stop was right outside and the metro was nearby.

The Duomo Cathedral was just a 45 min walk away or 10 mins on the tram, we walked there each day as there was lovely churches and shops along the way. We spent the Saturday at Lake Como which was a metro then overground train ride away, it was very cheap to get to and from and it's a stunningly beautiful lake, makes a perfect day trip!

We had a wonderful 4 days in Milan we would 100% come back and stay in this apartment again. Very happy indeed :-)
