I fell in love with Milan and it's safe to say that it was, in part, due to staying at this location! The location of the apartment is like no place else! You open the gate from a busy metropolitan street with motor bikes and people buzzing by, and you are suddenly in an old, quiet apartment courtyard. Good local restaurants and shopping are located on the same street. Getting around is super easy from the apartment with your choice of bus, train, metro, or plane nearby. If you are single or a couple looking to explore the city for the first time, you need to stay here with Richard! He was an amazing host who helped us every step of our trip. With setting up trains and plane arrangements, to organizing our daily trips around the city, he was a huge asset to our trip. I truly feel that i made some great friends in Milan thanks to Richard's hospitality and friendliness!
