Set in a residential area on the western side of Milan, this place is a retreat from the city centre. You’ll find bakeries and cafes within walking distance, along with green spaces for a relaxing stroll. For many of the city’s attractions, though, you’ll need to use public transport or drive, but the area has excellent transport links. After a busy day, there’s a small balcony to relax on at this apartment. The large open-plan living room also has a sofa bed for guests three and four. Here, you can live life like a local.

Home truths:
*At full occupancy, two guests will be sleeping on the sofa bed in the living area.
*You won't find an oven here – though there is a hob and microwave.
*There are only two seats on the balcony.
*There's free on-street parking available here.
