I loved staying with Elena! They weren't kidding - if you love languages, this is the place for you! Phillip even helped me adapt my Spanish to communicate well in Italian. He also indulged my American-sized taste for coffee in the morning. They made great suggestions for food and for getting around. I appreciated the space, the advice, and the location immensely! It is an easy place to get to from Linate and so easy to make it downtown. Plus, there is great food in their neighborhood if you are tired and wet from the rain. :) I hope you pic this great place!
