The apartment is located within walking distance from the canals at Navigli so that was good. Also its on a private street, so felt safer.
But the place is low value for money - we spent $84 for the night. But the beds were poor! Mattress was flimsy and gave me a back ache. Things felt cheap, bathroom fittings were cheap looking. Room tiny. Opposite room (not part of our rental) was super vlose and the host was there with another man liudly chatting and smoking, filling the apartment with smoke!
One big issue was poor communication by the host. Tardiness in response, many times not checking the messages in the app. We had a situation where she bad left for the evening and her sweet, large, old dog wandered into the room with us when we returned. Maybe because our room had air conditioning and the passageway where the dog sits was sweltering hot. Anyway we let it sleep inside, but just so the owner should not be worried, I sent her two messages on the app explaining how the dog wandered in, did not want to leave the room and that she is sleeping and fine. Even sent her a pic of the dog lying on a mat in the guest room. Several hours later, when fast asleep, we woke to banging on our door and there was the owner saying she is unable to find the dog! I told her what happened, showed her the messages and she said she did not check. The misunderstanding was cleared but ruined a good night’s sleep and we had an early start the next morning.
Did not enjoy the stay, will not recommend it to others.
