We stayed at Alessandro's apartment for a month. It was our first home in Milan while we figured out the city and went to Italian language school.
The location of the apartment is great. Close to the tram 16 (which passes by the duomo) and metro (purple and red lines), supermarkets and a very good bakery. The neighborhood itself is not very desirable or particularly italian however this was not a problem for us we appreciate the connectivity and the apartment itself was nice.
The apartment itself had everything we needed for a long stay: oil, pots and pans, cleaning products etc. The apartment was stylish and it was great to have a washing machine. Being in the ground floor with a garden was amazing, and quite a rare find in Milan. The only critique was this it was not 100% clean when we arrived and like any house there a few things that didn't function well, mainly the sinks, but there was always a way to work around them. I think Alessandro is getting them fixed now so hopefully not an issue for the next visitor.
Alessandro communicated with us well and was there to check us in and out. He was kind and courteous.
At the end of our stay we didn't want to leave! It was a great first place to stay in Milan. While yh neighborhood wasn't chic the apartment was and the connectivity to th centre was excellent. I would stay again and recommend it for a long stay in Milan.
