We stayed at Jenny's place for a night but we loved the place. Jenny could not speak very good english so she had her son who helped with the translation. Jenny and her son explained us well about the local places around, the house was sparkling clean.
The tram station was right across the street and with Tram 14 we could get to the centre in about 25mins.
Overall we would definitely book the same place again if we visit Milan again.
