This apartment is all about location. Set in the heart of the city, you'll find tonnes of top attractions, including the Parco Sempione and the Gallery of Modern Art, within walking distance. While the apartment itself may not knock your socks off, it is ideal for a fuss-free stay. And although the kitchen is on the compact side, it does the trick for light bites between your opportunities to try the many local restaurants that can be found right outside the door.

Home truths:
*If you're travelling with little ones, your host can provide a cot for free. You'll need to request it in advance.
*The kitchen is quite compact here. We think it is better suited to prepping lighter bites than large meals.
