We spent six weeks here this Spring. This is a lovely apartment in a typical (non touristy) middle class neighborhood of Milan. The apartment is tastefully decorated and very well stocked. It is larger and even prettier than the pictures online can do justice. The landlords, Luca and Claudia, are absolutely lovely, and they have given the apartment a lot of tasteful touches.
The only issue that we had in the apartment was noise. I am an urban apartment dweller, but I have never experience noise like in this apartment. Some of it was architectural (typical Milanese architecture is stucco surrounding shared courtyards, so every noise is amplified and carries). Some of it was locational. The apartment is located immediately above a cafe that opens before dawn and closes after last call, so early mornings are punctuated by security gates banging open and glass recycling being dumped in the courtyard and nights end with reveling at the outdoor tables below. The apartment is also located immediately below what I can only surmise is an all-night furniture-arranging school for elephants. Some of it is cultural. Rugs, tiptoeing, indoor voices and quiet hours just are not expectations in Italy. On multiple occasions there was hammering and other construction noises before 7 am and after 10 pm.
That being said, I suspect that the noise issues are pretty universal across Italy, and we actually adjusted to it pretty quickly. So, if you are a heavy sleeper, early riser, or own a good pair of noise-canceling headphones, dive right in. Otherwise, be prepared, but, overall, I would still stay here again.
