The apartment
How many guests can stay?
Up to 4 guests: a double bed in the bedroom and a double sofa bed in the living room. If you are two and need separate beds, just ask: we set them up for a €30 supplement.
What is in the apartment?
A full kitchen with induction hob, oven and coffee machine; bathroom with shower; independent air conditioning and heating; Smart TV; fibre Wi-Fi; towels, bed linen and toiletries. Welcome snacks and drinks are waiting for you when you arrive.
Is the Wi-Fi good enough for work?
Yes: it is fibre dedicated to the apartment, not shared with other units. If you are coming for work, see our guide to a quiet Milan apartment to work from.
Arrival and departure
What are the check-in and check-out times?
Check-in from 3:00 pm, check-out by 10:00 am.
Can I arrive earlier or leave later?
Yes, on request and subject to availability: early check-in at a time we agree on and late check-out until 12:00 pm, €20 each. You can request them from your guest area or on WhatsApp.
How does check-in work?
It is a 24/7 self check-in. Before you arrive you receive the link to your guest area, where you enter your ID details (required by Italian law) and find the instructions, codes and videos to get in.
Is there a city tax?
Yes. In 2026 Milan’s tourist tax is €9.50 per person per night, up to 14 nights. Guests under 18 are exempt. You pay it online from your guest area.
Parking and pets
Is there parking?
Yes, a private parking space in the inner courtyard, uncovered, with an automatic gate, at €15 per day. Book it in advance to confirm availability. Everything is on the private parking in Portello page.
Can I drive there without restricted-zone problems?
Portello is outside Area C, the paid zone of the city centre. Area B, however, covers almost the whole city and bans the most polluting vehicles: if your car is recent you are fine, but check before you set off.
Are pets allowed?
Yes, dogs and cats are welcome for a supplement of €30 per stay. For large dogs or more than one pet, message us first. Practical tips in our guide to travelling in Milan with a pet.
Booking and payment
Where should I book?
You can book on Airbnb, on Booking.com or directly on our website. It is the same apartment, but booking here you don’t pay the platforms’ fees. We explain why in Airbnb vs direct booking.
Are there any extra costs?
