Giovanna and her daughter were wonderful hosts. From the moment they personally greeted us at the entrance to their place, we truly felt a warm welcome to their city of Milan. Their apartment was stylish with delightful design touches in a good location for getting around via public transportation and finding public parking. It was also nice and quiet inside the apartment, no real street noises. Everything was immaculately clean and in order with up to date appliances. The loft arrangement included curtains for additional privacy. They had even put out some fresh flowers and fruit/biscuits for us. It was such a welcome treat along with some refreshing drinks in the really cool retro red refrigerator. They readily provided helpful information about local public transportation and places to eat. Though our stay was short, we would readily come back and stay here again, when we come to Milan.
