Annalisa and Michele have a wonderful flat located in a fantastic part of Milan. It is not too far from the city center (about half an hour slow walk to Duomo), but very close to Milan canals and in a very good part of the city. Via Savona is also a place where a lot of Italians hang out (there is a great bar Papagayo down and the Irish bar Murphys across the street and also one of the best pizzas in the world - Gino Sorbino around the corner), which was quite important to us, I like to be in the area where the locals are, not tourists. The only problem (and not really a real problem) with the location is when you travel by car - you cannot park for free anywhere close (the white lines). We spent 4 days in Milan and did not want to pay for parking so we had to park about 15 minutes walk away - but that was actually fine too. It´s not like you can park for free in the city center anywhere..
The flat is just about the right size for a couple, very cozy, clean, and very quiet (which also, was important for me - I like to sleep uninterrupted, and sometimes that can be quite a challenge in busy Italian cities). It also had a very good atmosphere and was nicely decorated. We also cooked one evening and there is anything you´d need to prepare food. Michele, who waited for us and gave us the keys, was very kind and helpful, and also flexible (we traveled to Milan by car and had to change the time of arrival several times). Any questions we had were promptly answered by either Michele or Annalisa. The price for a stay is not cheap, but for such a flat, location and time of the year absolutely reasonable. There are really no negatives, we loved the place and enjoyed both the flat, the street and the city. Next time in Milan, it is very possible we will choose the same flat, if it will be free.
