Marina has been the warmest host I've come across. She and Mariella accommodated all my requests and made me really feel like home for the 5 weeks I stayed in Milan. Despite the language barrier that I didn't spoke any Italian Marina always made an extra effort to guarantee we had a smooth and quick communication with the help of her son. From my extensive travels experience and have worked in the luxury hospitality industry I can say Marina is putting a lot of love, thoughts and consideration into giving her guests an outstanding experience. I highly recommend to stay and experience the authentic hospitality of Marina. She is a true super host.
The apartment itself is simply beautiful with classy design, art and decor. When I entered the apartment it felt like I have time travelled to the glam era of liberty. On the same time the apartment is fully function, suitable and optimised for modern life style. It is designed and arranged with a lot of thoughts to accommodate every guest's need and provide maximum comfort and convenience. I love the big closet and that everything was perfect for my purpose of stay. I travelled to Milan for fashion design and fashion week. The apartment itself is in an astonishing historical Milanese building with an historical elevator that is remarkable by itself. It's perfectly located, 4 min walking distance to Arc della Pace which is right in the center of Milan. Huge park for exercise, super market and restaurants are in immediate proximity. I had the historical part on the left and the modern CityLife shopping district on the left. It's a central, beautiful and yet super quiet neighbourhood. Chinatown is also in 10min walking distance which easily satisfied my cravings for Asian food. The location can't be any better for me as it is combining the best of Milan. And of course the tram is just 4 walking distance away.
