We traveled early May. This apartment is about a 10 minute walk from Milan Centrale, which was an easy straightforward walk. The apartment was very easy to find. Carlo's daughter actually checked us in. She was very informative and gave us everything we needed to get settled in the apartment. There is an elevator so we didn't have to worry about taking our bag up 9 flights. The apartment was very clean - small, perfect for 2 people, but very clean and completely worth staying here for the view. There is availability to the terrace that is accessible from the apartment. You are able to see the alps from the terrace which was beautiful. The bed is a sofa bed, but I thought it was a good sofa bed as it did not dip in spots and is firm. There is a train station right across the street, Sondrio, which was very convenient. It is just a train ride to the downtown area and the trains were very easy to navigate. Since we also booked a late afternoon train out of Milan, Carlo actually held our luggages. This apartment is a great place to stay and I would stay here again if I was back to Milan!
