This was probably the best experience I've had using airbnb.
Firstly, Giovanni could not have been more helpful, communicative or polite. He was an excellent host and went out of his way to help.
The apartment was immaculately clean and had great style. Lovely and light with plenty of space, it is far enough away from the tourist traps to make you feel like a local. It is close to all amenities, with a huge supermarket, great bars and cafes as well as the metro nearby. Giovanni provided me with the most comprehensive tip list as well. I did not nearly enough time to explore all the suggested places. Each one I tried, was fantastic!
I look forward to staying again if I return to Milan, could not recommend more!!
