Barbara was unable to meet us upon arrival so we met with her nephew outside the building. He was very kind and helpful and gave us all the information we needed. The apartment was small, but had all the amenities we needed. I was very grateful to have a washing machine, especially after a long day of traveling. Noise was never an issue and it was very quiet at night. We greatly appreciated the information book with city guides, recommendations and other useful info. Barbara also messaged me a long list of other suggestions on where to eat and things to do in the city. This is a great place to stay if you're looking for something within walking distance to the Milano Centrale train station.
