Sofia place is outstanding and was never what I expected through my many Airbnb experiences.
Here’s why:
Location: From Milan airport Malpensa,we took a “direct to Central bus that costs 8 euros 1 way. The apartment is 2 streets away from Centrale Station, not hard to find through Google mapping, please choose the exit near Mango, thereafter turn Left and walk along the station, crosses 2 streets (1 main road and 1 small road), you’ll see a shop call SATI (not the 1st shop but 2nd), then you’ll see the main gate to Sofia’s apartment building.
Sofia: She welcomed us at the main gate, then walk us into her apartment which is just at the 1st level. Genuine and heartwarming, she showed us around the apartment from the rooms to kitchen, re-assured if we have any questions, and answered all of them. We chatted and it doesn’t feel “transactional” at all!
The Apartment: 2 rooms, 1 with slightly lower ceiling, but it made it cozy and comfortable. Come together with a “walk in wardrobe and toilet. The other room has higher ceilings, but bigger space and its own toilet as well. Both rooms were very clean, neat and comfortable. All TVs, heaters, washing machine, stove were all in good working conditions. (We used them all.. LOL)
Accessibility: In Centrale Station, you’ll find their local trains (direct train to DUOMO), and we took trains for day trips to Venice, Florence, just a door step away to access the transport for people who loves day trips! Buses to outlets are also at the Centrale Station and even buses to airport!
Thanks Sofia for having us!
