Marco met us directly at the train platform and took my girlfriend's luggage straight away before walking us to his flat 10-15 minutes away - what a gentleman! He gave us some information about Milan along the way and provided lots of maps, leaflets and recommendations upon our arrival. His flat an amazing assortment of curiosities he has collected over the years - it really is fascinating. He gave us a drink and made us feel very welcome and comfortable in what is still his home, saying we could use his food and drink if we needed to. The location is ideal for Milano Centrale and Milano P Garibaldi train station, although a little further from the city centre, maybe 30 minutes walk. There is also a subway station very close by. One thing to be aware of - there is a nightclub on his street that is pretty lively, but it didn't bother us. If anything, we wish we had gone! When we left, Marco allowed us to store our baggage in his attic while we killed some time before our train. Overall, he was the perfect host and we wish we could have stayed for more than our one night.
