We stayed at Richard's apartment for a week in April during the Milan Furniture Fair.
We were greeted by a friend of Richard, who helped us with the luggage.
The apartment is in an old courtyard and in a typical old milanese settting.
It is on the first floor, on two levels and the bedroom is on the second level. There is no elevator.
The bathroom is small and on the lower level.
It is a very quiet and charming setting, and close to all facilities and to downtown.
It definitely has lots of character, and being close to the canal area you are in the middle of the action and at the same time in a very private and tranquil setting.
We found the rate high, compared to other larger and more modern apartments offered, but not available at the time.

We found the apartment was not very clean

There is a washing machine in the apartment but during our stay it was not working.
