My wife and I stayed at Mauro's place in Milan for 3 nights in May. From start to finish it was an absolutely fantastic experience. I'll begin with the host himself; Mauro was easy to communicate with, highly responsive and has it down to a well refined process. From check-in through usage we didn't have any questions or issues that caused concern. As for the property itself the location could not be more perfect. Overlooking Piazza San Carlo, you are only a 2 minute walk from the Duomo and Galleria. There are an abundance of restaurants, cafes and nightlife spots at your fingertips. On top of that you are also literally above the city on the fifth floor, so it feels almost like you are escaping the chaotic city life. There is still some noise at nights but nothing too disruptive. The unit is clean, well appointed and plenty spacious for a couple. The kitchen is limited in usage but that was clear from the pictures so it was not a problem. I doubt it would be an issue for most parties booking this property. It happens to be in sort of a sunroom setup which is pretty cool. The bedroom, living room and bathrooms all work great, no issues there. Shower was nice, towels provided, bedding clean and comfortable, etc. The neatest feature, however, has to be the garden terrace overlooking the piazza and in the shadow of the San Carlo cathedral; it is absolutely breathtaking. We spent many mornings out there drinking coffee and evenings with a bottle of wine. Overall this is a perfect property to base out of on a trip to Milan. If we are ever back in the city this will be our first choice for accommodations. A huge thank you to Mauro for making it a wonderful experience!
