I had a possibility to see the apartment before booking it and it was a good choice. It is well designed, very nice and well maintained; like on the photos. It feels warm and relaxing. Claudio was very kind, communication OK. When I came he showed me the appartment and made an espresso with his coffee mashine. A closest supermarket at 10-15 minutes walk, but with small shops around. If you look for a place close to University Bicocca, location is great. But also to reach other city locations is easy by metro or buses. WiFi was fast, cable TV with all available italian programs. I wish I had found Claudio's apartment already when I came to Milan, three months earlier. I recommend it.
