I am very grateful for Marinella's warm welcome, and a stay in her comfortable and centrally-located apartment. Marinella met me with prompt instructions about access to the apartment and internet, and helpful information about the local grocery store and excellent, reasonably-priced restaurants. The room and private-bath were clean and well-maintained. I especially appreciated the air conditioning during my summer stay. And I enjoyed every minute of getting to know Milan, attending an opera at La Scala, and participating in a conference at Universita Commerciale Luigi Bocconi a few blocks away. Many thanks, Marinella.
