Our hosts made us feel very welcome both in manner and also with a bottle of sparkling wine and some local 'foody' delicacies. They also gave us a list of local restaurants and advised about events and places to visit. The apartment was beautiful, spacious, comfortable and
well equipped not to mention ideally located for all the city centre attractions. However, it is also very quiet as the apartment faces a private courtyard. Within less than a 100 metres there was a cafe, Carefour shop, which albeit small had a very good selection of foods, wine and whatever you might need. There are 3 or 4 restaurants within less than 5 mins walking distance many of them offering a 'happy hour' - drink and eat as much as you can deal at very reasonable prices. All in all an absolutely wonderful place to stay in Milano.
