The location is superb - walking distance to the Duomo, Pinacotecca Ambrosiana, Sforza Castle, Santa Maria Delle Grazie, restaurants, shops, and all transportation lines. The apartment is clean and quiet and happily air conditioned. DOn't be fooled by the rough exterior, the place is a gem. Giusi is a wonderful host. She was ready to meet us anytime and was very helpful in all ways. We will be coming back there!!
