Granny Smith Milan, Lombardy

Holiday Rental Description

This stylish, lime green pad is in a great position, behind the historic Porta Monforte – with both San Babila and the Duomo less than a couple of kilometres away. That little bit of distance makes the area much quieter and more residential than if you were staying in the true centre of the city – you're removed from the flocks of tourists here. The flat itself is large and light-filled, despite the scarcity of windows, the living space and mezzanine bedroom are bright and colourful, creating a playful home to return to each day. The furniture is more functional than luxurious, but the Mondrian-style prints, chic decor and clever layout more than make up for it. Modern and minimalist in nature, the apartment is a real breath of fresh air – it's a clutter-free and clean space to show off your most recent purchases from the Galleria Vittorio Emanuele II shopping centre, only a twenty-minute walk away. You're also in the "district of food", with a restaurant located every twenty-five metres within the area, so you'll be spoilt for choice when dinner time arrives.

Home truths:
*At capacity, two people will be sleeping on a sofa bed and one person will be on the single bed – both in the living room
*There's only one window in the whole flat, so it lacks a little natural light
*As it's on street level, people walking past will be able to see in
*As it's a mezzanine bedroom, there's not as much privacy
*If you're bringing little ones along, the host provides a baby cot
*Building staff will be able to let you into the building 24 hours a day
