I contacted Monica about 24 hours out from traveling to Milan and despite her being busy at work, she was very happy to open her doors to me. I too was busy in Milan so didn't have much time to get to know her, but from what I saw she's really nice, a great host and easy to talk to.
Beautiful and stylishly minimalist, early 2Oth century apartment with original tile work mosaics in a lovely building . Comfortable bed and amenities. And surprisingly, the entrance to the apartment was actually on the canal - not shown on the map.
I'd happily stay here again in the future!
