I cannot say enough good things about Ale's hospitality and the flat itself. I have stayed in AirBnBs for many years all over the world, and Ale without question the best, most helpful, gracious and personable host in whose property I've stayed. He provided us with 2 full pages of personalized local recommendations, arranged taxis for us, provided us with metro directions and also gifted us with a lovely bottle of wine.
His flat is very well-located in an inner residential neighborhood, enabling one to be close to the center of town, but with the experience of a "local" rather than a tourist. There is an excellent patisserie next door to the building, and many great restaurants and cocktail bars within walking distance.
And as importantly, the flat was spotlessly clean, comfortable and very well appointed, with a fully equipped kitchen as well as toiletries in the bathrooms. It is located in a beautiful older Milanese residential building with a lovely courtyard, filled with greenery and bicycles. The building and the flat itself are extremely well-maintained and modernized. (It's quite cool that you can see how the elevator was inserted in more recent times.) Depending on the size of one's party, some might find the flat slightly on the cozier side - it was after all built >90 years ago - but this should not dissuade anyone from staying here. It was a pleasure and I would recommend it wholeheartedly to anyone who wants an extremely well-located but less touristy base from which to explore Milan.
