10 stars if I could give it that. Location is actually ideal (5 min walk to the train station to get to Florence, Cuomo, Venice, etc, as well as to the metro). One of the nicest apartments I have ever stayed in - this is furnished like someone's home and made for an incredibly comfortable stay (was here 5 weeks). Large new television with lots of streaming options, very nice couch, electronic blinds/blackout curtains for the bedrooms, large very nice dining table, kitchen is totally stocked with everything you can think of, just a super top place. No/minimal noise from outside as well. Beautiful view of the large local church from the master bedroom.
More on location - great coffee right next door (€1.50 for some of the best cappucino's you've ever had), a bakery a few doors down, and 5 minutes from the Mercato Centrale (several dozen high quality food stands). If you are using Milan as a home base, I can't express enough how advantageous it is to be 5 minutes from the main train station.
If/when I return to Milan, this will be my top choice for a stay. Thanks Giulio!
