Our stay (my fiancé and I, 5 days) in Milan at Antonino's place can be best described as PERFECT in every sense.
As for the host: Antonino gave us a cordial welcome, even though we were 20' "late". He showed us around and explained a few things (fridge, tv, wifi code, etc.). On Day 2, we asked for a warm(er) blanket and got it immediately; Antonino kindly offered even having the room cleaned on Day 3 (which we declined as we didn't really need it).
As for the place: Antonino's place is charming!! A must-see!! It has a separate entrance and an own bathroom; everything in state-of-the-art, attractive design, ultra clean and really-really cozy. Antonino even provided sample shower gels - it really felt like in a 5* hotel.
As for the location: perfect connection (Tram line 19, with vintage kind-of wagons, really nice) in front of the house but since the window is facing a side street, the room is absolutely quiet. Just a few steps to a café and a few stops to delicious restaurants (which Antonino recommended - they're really great!!) and to the driverless (!) purple metro line, which rapidly takes you to the red line to arrive at the Duomo.
RÉSUMÉ: whenever we had questions or needed info, Antonino replied promptly, gave us advice (e.g. on how to buy tickets or get around in town) and was super friendly throughout our entire stay. Also, the price/performance-ratio is just perfect.
We will surely come back one day and can only warmly recommend both Antonino and his place, as they're simply GREAT!!
We hope to be able to return Antonino's hospitality one day.
GRAZIE MILLE, Antonino, sei fantastico !! :-)))
