The apartment was exactly as specified in the listing - no surprises. It is located conveniently around 15 minutes walk north of The Sforzesco Castle, with the new M5 subway line stations in vicinity (one just outside of the building - to be opened by the end of 2015- the other 5 minutes walk away). The windows outlook the patio/courtyard which makes it very quiet, we had great quality sleep. There is a very well stocked supermarket just across the street with great selection of local foods and also a small street market on Saturdays on the street. A few restaurants and gelateria within walking distance - make you not even want to go to central Milan!

Rita is a very helpful owner. She picked us up from Garibaldi station, provided basic alimentation to the apartment and was flexible in terms of check in/out times, lovely person indeed.

I couldn't imagine how our visit to Milan could be any better than what we experienced with Rita. It is my first experience with airbnb and she set the bar is really high.

I would surely love to come back and could recommend this accommodation to anyone!
