Gabriele provided quick and prompt communication both before and during our stay. A day or so before our arrival, we received a list of restaurants, cafes..etc which he suggested we visit. You can follow his advise with confidence! All his recommendations are spot-on!

Upon arrival, we were welcomed at the apartment by Ricky, as Gabriele and Ida were out of town. We were provided with fresh focaccia breads, a bottle of water, and a cold beer on arrival. The apartment was clean and immaculate on arrival - exactly as shown in the photos.

Once settled, we found the apartment to be nice and cosy for the cool weather we experienced during our stay. Being located in a relatively quite neighborhood, we found there was minimal noise from passing traffic. There was also minimal noise from neighbors. The park is also only a short stroll from the apartment.

The apartment proved to be a useful locale for both touring the city and attending the EXPO.

Moscova metro station is a 5-10min walk from the apartment (as per the listing) and allows you to get to the Expo (Rho Feira) in around 40 minutes. I preferred, on occasion, to walk through the park and make use of Cadorna station directly - particularly during peak periods.

We only met Ida and Gabriele the day we checked out. As I said above, they are great hosts. We traveled to Milano from Paris on the weekend of the tragic terror attacks. In this regard, Gabriele was very willing to accommodate any unforeseen changes, as there was plenty of uncertainty regarding our travel plans at the time.

In short: An awesome Milano apartment with fantastic hosts. Highly recommended!
