We had to book one (final) night in Milano at the end of our holiday so that we could be close to the station (and Malpensa Express). Carlo's flat was a good option as opposed to local hotels (which can be quite expensive). It was very easy to book the flat and Carlo (and his daughter) accommodated our arrival very graciously.

The flat is in a very busy area right by a metro station - but luckily it does not face the main road and is high enough to be away from the hustle and bustle of the city. It is a good option if you are traveling light - if you have more than a back-pack or carry-on bag, the stairs into the flat will be a bit of a challenge.

The flat itself is compact - but again if you just need it for 1 or 2 nights and are traveling light and just need a place to sleep (that isn't a hotel) - it is a good option. The amenities are very modern and sleek - and the roof terrace has 360 degree views of Milano.
