The place is close to the tube. But if you decided to walk from Milan Central train station, it would take about 20 minutes walk plus the stairs to the fifth floor, which would be a disaster, especially when carrying a luggage. The downside might be the cleanliness of the bed as we felt a bit itchy when we woke the next morning. Though the communication to the host was not good as we got a late response from the Airbnb app. But overall, it is good.
