I cannot recommend Paola's apartment more highly. Not only is the space carefully considered and inviting, she was a wonderful host. It felt almost more like staying in a friend's apartment than in a rented space. Paola gave thoughtful recommendations for activities and made herself available in the event that I needed anything. The apartment is conveniently located near the train station, a grocery store, restaurants and nightlife.
If my future travels take me to Milan, I would jump at the chance to stay at Paola's place again.
