Where It Goes

Holiday Rental Description

Regular city-breakers will know that there's often a trade-off between a home's size and its location. Yes, it's true that this apartment is on the smaller side, but those opting for this address will have some pretty illustrious neighbours. The Ambrosian Library is only three minutes' walk away, while the mighty Duomo di Milano takes around eight minutes to reach on foot. If seeing Milan's most famous sights is your main priority, you will love this home.

That's not to say, however, that the apartment itself is completely devoid of charm. The contemporary kitchen is a lot larger than a lot of other studios we've seen during our time and puts you in good stead should you wish to take a night off the city's restaurants.

Elsewhere, the parquet flooring and cleansingly white walls are a classy combination, while the palm accent wall and print artwork add a sense of liveliness. To top it all off, the glossy white bathroom wouldn't look out of place in some of Milan's high-class hotels.

Home truths:
*There's a short flight of steps to take before you reach the front door of the first-floor apartment and there's no elevator in the building
*The building has no private parking space, but Missori underground station is only six minutes' walk away
*A cot can be provided if required
*A welcome basket including bottled water and Prosecco is provided, as well as a courtesy kit in the bathroom
*The host looks after two other apartments in the same building that can be booked out at the same time
*Though there isn't a dedicated desk here, the dining table doubles up as a laptop-friendly workspace
