The location of this place is splendid. It is across the street (2 mins) from a newsstand where you can buy tickets for the tram that takes you straight into Milan city center. What we liked about this place was that it wasn't right in the center of the city/shopping with all of the tourists, it was about a 20 minute tram ride from city center. It is across the street from a grocery store. Being a little bit further away also meant we could park our rented automobile. This place has a parking spot within the gates of the compound. It is a very short walk (about 5 minutes) to the parking spot.
Omar was a fantastic host. He has a wonderful and optimistic disposition. Many things are "bellisimo" to him. He went above and beyond what an Airbnb host should do (I'll get more into that later). He met us in the courtyard at the agreed upon time and helped us check in. There is a flight of stairs to walk up in order to get to the place; through a gate that requires a key (if security is important to you). The place is also within a compound so at night you must have a key to get into the compound. He also showed us where to park our car (I let him drive my car since the courtyard was pretty small).
The place itself is somewhat compact, but overall met our expectations (the photos are representative). Upon entering, you will first see the kitchen. It is relatively small kitchen but good for 2 people. There is a flight of stairs (think loft style) to get to the living room. It is a bit narrow if you have large luggage, but not too much of a challenge. The living room is spacious and there is a comfortable sofa. The bedroom is up a flight of steps. The bathroom downstairs isn't very big and the shower feels like a phone booth, but it wasn't a bad experience. One thing to note, the bedroom is connected to the rest of their home, but it is separated by a locked door that has been insulated for sound. At times you can still hear the children talking and playing, but it wasn't really an issue at all.
Now to the part where Omar went above and beyond... during the drive into Milan there are toll roads. At the last stop, when inserting the credit card to pay for the toll, it did not return my credit card. After telling Omar what had happened, Omar helped by driving us all the way back to the toll station (about 20 minute drive), helping translate English to Italian, so that we could retrieve my credit card. Amazing!
