Alessandro was an excellent host and was waiting for us when we arrived from the train station (15 mins walk). The newly renovated space is hip, clean and feels very cozy. It is very well equipped. The apartment looks on to an inner courtyard, typical of Milan, giving a quiet community feel in a big city. The metro stop is only steps away to access the city centre. Alessandro went out of his way to share deals with the nearby bar and local restaurants giving visitors an extra connection to Milan. He is very proud of his city and it shows. We would definitely stay again and would highly recommend it.
