My husband & I found this apartment on the Internet. We were very pleased with the accommodations and great location. Francesco maintained email contact with us from the time we made our reservations until our arrival in Milan. He gave us perfect directions to the apartment via the Metro & even met us at the Metro stop and accompanied us to the apartment. The apartment was very orderly and comfortable. The courtyard was quite picturesque with fragrant jasmine blooming and wisteria throughout. Francesco spent a great deal of time answering our questions & making suggestions for activities in the area. He was available to us by phone the entire time we were there. The apartment is located right on the Metro line and about a block from the Sforza castle & a few blocks down the Via Dante to the Duomo. Excellent restaurants just a few steps away from your door.
