A nice studio apartment, in the heart of Milan, walking distance from everything.
The place was easy to find, only 10 min walk from the train in from the Malpensa Airport. After some confusion about how we were supposed to connect with Alice when we arrived, we made our way up the 5 (or more) flights of stairs and were warmly greeted by Alice. She is sweet and clearly wanted us to feel welcome and have everything we need. The fridge was stocked with eggs, fruit, and bread for breakfast, etc. There is a nice terrace with a little table, which was a great place to enjoy breakfast and some wine in the evening. It was easy to walk to everything because of the central location. There's a little grocery store across the street with anything you could need. Check-out was super easy.
A few things to keep in mind when considering Alice's place:
1) It is directly next to/above train tracks. We could feel and hear the train as it went by--the train woke us up several times each night.
2) The apartment is on the 6th floor. It is quite a hike to climb the stairs.
3) The hot tub is a bath tub that is made by Jacuzzi. We only used the shower (which was nice), but when we attempted to use the "hot tub" we didn't see any water jets, just an ordinary faucet. (Maybe we were doing it wrong.)
4) Not important, but worth noting: the TV only had 2 stations when we were there (1 strong signal)--BBC World News and an Italian Tennis station.
