Francesca`s flat is absolutely amazing - it possesses a unique charm, is fully equipped and provides a cozy accommodation to up to 4 grown-up visitors.
There is one spacious bedroom with a big double-bed and one living room with a comfortable sofa, which could become 2 single beds. 4 nights in and neither of us got any issues.
The kitchen box in the living room is fully equipped and we could enjoy all sorts of home made meals during our stay, without having to wash dishes by hand. There is a lot of food and spices left for the visitors (from us as well).
The bathroom has a tricky hot water supply but there is a hack to it - if you let the sink`s hot water dribble a bit and open-close-open again the shower`s hot water, you will enjoy a hot shower without the cold mix (personally tested during our 5-days stay).
Each room has its own balcony. The main one is spacious and equipped with a sink, a 2nd washing machine, chairs and a table for the warmer days.
The location is perfect - 5 min walk from Porta Genova station (metro,bus,tram) and approx. 40min walk from Duomo (excluding the shopping stops on the way).
Navigli is a superb neighborhood for tourists - many restaurants & bars, charming handy-craft shops and an occasional bazar. The flat is very quiet though.
Overall, we looked carefully and long for a flat in Milano and we can conclude without hesitation that this is one of the best choices. Francesca is a friendly host, who left written instructions in the flat and replied quickly to our questions. Her taste for interior decoration is one of a kind.
We felt at home, and therefore, highly recommend her flat. We also hope to be back again someday...
