Our first visit to Milan was memorable and very enjoyable due to the considerable skill of Andrew as our Airbnb host, and the truly exceptional accommodation he offers. Andrew was considerate and efficient, providing everything we needed and then some in terms of communication and amenities. His attention to detail ensured that our arrival and stay were well-supported and problem free. His proficient staff, especially Marco the English-speaking doorman, gave us all the guidance and answers we could use. Andrew's apartment is elegant, well-maintained, and very comfortable. As he mentions, this isn't just a "rental", it is his home, and he is rightfully proud of it. Additionally, there is a sense of history here due to Andrew being a member of one of Milan's founding families dating back to the 1400's. All of these add up to a truly unique experience.
Andrew's description of the apartment being "super-central location" is completely accurate. Milan is a vibrant and dynamic city of 1.3 million people, and though it mellows out nicely in the evening, it never really sleeps and the hum of the city is ever-present. The location couldn't be better for access to restaurants, historic sites, transportation (a car was never needed) such as the Metro and train station, and the best gelato ever at "Massimo's" just around the corner on Corso Magenta.
Thanks, Andrew, for the type of experience that people like us travel the world to find. If we're fortunate enough to find ourselves back in Milan some day, we would hope to find your apartment ready and waiting.
