I have stayed with Airbnb many times--in New York, London, Barcelona, Berlin and more. Paolo was the best host I've had. First of all, the attention to detail he has given to the flat is amazing. His design background is put to full use. The flat is small (perfect for solo travel or romantic couple) but Paolo's design makes the most of it. The beautiful terrace (a rare find in Milan city) is gorgeous and bigger than the flat! This too has designer furniture and well-manicured greenery. Morning coffee on the sun-drenched terrace is a must. When I arrived, Paolo met me at the Metro station, gave me a walking tour of the neighborhood and showed me into the flat. Later that night, I met him at his flat around the block and he prepared a delicious Italian meal and we chatted over wine about Milan, Paris, New York, advertising, interior design, and politics late into the evening.
