Great location. Nice place. No complaints.
Traveled from the USA and when I arrived in Milan, I went straight to Marta's Place. She met me, showed me the apartment and made some restaurant recommendations. After that, she left, and I had the place to myself.
The location is great. On the edge of Chinatown, there are many affordable restaurants nearby. The Chateau Dufan, about one block north, has delicious chocolate gelato. Within a block, there are several places to get a cafe (coffee) or cappuccino, including a place directly across the street. And Eataly, which is about two blocks to the east, is filled with delicious food and drink (there are restaurants inside, as well as gourmet groceries, wine and beer). While in Eataly, I watched an artisan cheese maker hand stretch mozzarella. And then I enjoyed a great pizza topped with the fresh, hand-stretched mozzarella - magnifico!
From Marta's place, it is a delightful walk through Parco Sempione (Central Milan's largest park), past Castello Sforzesco (a big castle in the park) to the city center to see the amazing Duomo (cathedral), the Galleria (beautiful shopping mall) and many other delightful sights. Total walking distance from Marta's Place to the Duomo is about 1.5 miles (2.2 km). You can always take a cab or a bus, but it's a delightful walk.
If walking 1.5 miles to the Duomo sounds difficult, you might want to stay some place else. Marta's Place is up on the 4th floor (stairs only, no lift).
Marta was a very good host. Her English is great. She knows the local area. She was there for me at check-in (at 10:00 pm on a Friday night). Her place was clean and comfortable. I felt safe enough in the neighborhood. The price was much better than nearby hotels. When I return to Milan, I hope to stay at Marta's Place again.
