Giulia's apartment, just near the center of Milan but on a quiet street, is perfect in nearly every way -- spacious, very clean, well-equipped kitchen a welcome place to return to after a long day of walking and touring. It is not expensive when you compare it to hotel prices in the same area, in fact it is a good deal. Giulia is very easy to work with, and the concierge in the building, Luca, is one of the nicest people you will meet. Highly recommended.
