Davide was a 6-star host to us, making our short, October visit to Milan very easy and very private at the same time. Amazing! On one hand, during the few nights he was with us, he's shared many tips, private stories and has given genuine attention to our plans. On the other hand, he has made ample room for us to enjoy his peaceful nest at the rooftop in bustling Milan.
The convenience of this location can't be overrated and one can easily get anywhere by metro, bus or tram. There are plenty of restaurants and groceries, too. (If you go for the burger in Old Wild West, choose one of their outlets in the center and not the one downstairs.) As soon as one gets out of the Zara metro station, the street-gate to the block's courtyard is just around the corner. (Never forget the blue key, and the only key you will need, when you plan to be back after 5pm. And watch your head when entering the gate after dark, tall lads and gals:)
Behind the wooden street gate, through the murky courtyard, and after a 4 high-storey climb (get fit in Milan!), a bright and spacious oasis with the sizeable terrace will serve you some peace, distant city purr and all the comfort you need to rest or work some in your room, or relax outside or in the shared living room/kitchen.
The tall windows let all the light (or air, if you choose to smoke) in, making the space bright when needed, while the blinds keep it private from the eyes of neighboring blocks of flats after dusk.
The high-ceiling bathroom is very comfortable and the size of the shower, co-shared with the host, is just about right.
All other, modern amenities, including the practically equipped kitchen, smart TV with netflix, and the entry door smart lock (no key) round the comfort of one's stay in this vibrant city.
