So we are especially thankful to this wonderful hostess, Anita, as she saved our trip to Milan and made it really special! We had booked a group deal which included flights and accommodation through a different travel agency. When we arrived in Milan and made our way to the “Hotel”, it turned out to be more of a dingy dorm room in a not so great part of town.
At the last minute we found a wonderful looking place right in the centre of Milan on Air BnB, and got in touch with Anita. Less than an hour later we had received our booking confirmation and then checked in less than 2 hours later. We were truly shattered after our travels and Anita’s kindness and quick response allowed us to relax like we intended for our getaway!
The place is very central, minutes away from lots of things to do and see. Also less than a 5 minute walk away from the closest metro station.
The apartment itself was very clean, very modern, and very homely. The decor is very contemporary, with an all together upmarket feel. We settled in quickly, had dinner cooking on the stove top and some Netflix playing in the lounge area while we sipped wine and got ready for our night out walking the city streets.
There is a wonderful little cafe right next door which I recommend to everyone. Makes for a great coffee as you head out. There is also a Starbucks 500m away and a great place opposite Starbucks called Bianco Latte, delicious Gelato!! Not that it’s necessary, there is a great coffee machine in the apartment as well!!
All together I have to say a full 5 stars for this stay! Anita was great, the place is as advertised, and value we feel is spot on, and the location was as central as we would have wanted to be.
