A few friends and I were visiting Milan for a weekend adventure away from Rome where we were studying abroad at. It was easy to book the room and a decent distance away from the expensive housing within Milan. When we arrived we took the metro to the bus station and out to the apartment. We had some trouble finding the apartment's exact location, but we called and Gaia spoke with us letting us know where to go. The apartment is secure and very homey. Gaia even made us baked goods and left us cereal, milk, yogurt & water! It was truly a wonderful stay outside of Milan and we are all so satisfied with our experience! It was a short bus ride from her apartment to the duomo (15-20 minutes).
