The apartment is located in a hostel. This allows for 24/7 reception service, which is nice. We appreciated a parking spot, morning cappucinos downstairs, and a great location. There is a Carrefour express 1 block away, and a great spot for restaurants a 5 minute walk away (Navigli). The apartment is exactly as it looks in the photos. The only thing is that the roads below are busy and you can hear the traffic much of the night. The people who work at the reception of the hostel are very helpful and friendly.
