Excellent location. Walkable to the major attractions (Duomo /La Scala are 17-20 min away), metro station 5 min away, very close to lots of excellent restaurants, bars and cafes, yet very quiet and safe. The apartment is small (it felt smaller than in the photos :)) but filled with light, sparkling clean and beautifully decorated. The area felt very safe any time day/night. Elevator was a big plus as well. If you are driving, there is a convenient parking lot next door (21 euro/ day). Elena was prompt to respond to all our questions and provide the required information. We would highly recommend Elena's place! Only one small thing to consider - the elevator door can be a bit loud in the mornings, so if you are a light sleeper consider bringing earplugs just in case it bothers you.
