About

Appartamento 21

Appartamento 21 is a small aparthotel in Milan's Lorenteggio district, west of the centre. It sits within a 10-minute walk of De Angeli underground station, putting the city's public transport network within easy reach. It's a deliberately straightforward set-up: studios with kitchenettes, Wi-Fi, and parking, aimed at travellers who want independence rather than hotel formality.

The property is roughly a 10-minute ride from Il Cenacolo and around 12 km from Linate airport. The surrounding area is quiet and residential, with a supermarket a few minutes' walk away. Guests repeatedly mention the attentive host, who has helped with rebooking after flight cancellations and offered local tips.

In brief

What works, what to weigh

+

Strengths

5 reasons to book
  • Attentive, flexible host — Multiple guests describe the owner as 'helpful', 'friendly', and 'super helpful', with specific mentions of rebooking after flight cancellations and providing local tips. This is the most consistent praise across reviews.
  • Clean, well-equipped studios — Reviews repeatedly call the rooms 'clean', 'spotless', and 'exactly as in pictures', with kitchens, kettles, and towels mentioned. The property's 'Rooms' rating of 8.9 supports this.
  • Self-catering convenience — Each studio includes a kitchenette with a dining table, electric kettle, and cookware. Guests specifically praised the ability to cook and the dining area.
  • Parking available — Private parking is offered on site, a notable advantage in Milan where street parking is scarce. One guest called it 'a godsend', and another noted free parking in front of the building.
  • Quiet, safe neighbourhood — The Lorenteggio area is described as 'quiet' and 'super safe' by several reviewers, which is a plus for light sleepers or families. The property has a 'General' rating of 8.7.

Worth weighing

5 to weigh
  • Walk to the metro, not a sprint — The nearest underground station, De Angeli, is about a 10-minute walk, with some guests reporting 7–15 minutes on foot. The location is not right on the metro, so factor in the stroll each day.
  • No pets allowed — The policy explicitly states 'No pets allowed', despite the amenities list mentioning 'Pet amenities'. This is a firm restriction for pet owners.
  • Limited room choice — Only one room type – the Deluxe Studio – is listed, with a king bed and sofa bed. This may not suit larger groups or those wanting more space.
  • Breakfast not mentioned — There is no breakfast service or restaurant on site, only a coffee shop. Guests looking for a meal without leaving the building would need to plan otherwise.
  • Check-in window ends at midnight — Check-in is from 15:00 to 23:59. Late-night arrivals, such as after a flight delay, would need to coordinate with the host, as one guest experienced.

“The dining area and full kitchen were a real bonus – made me feel like a chef. Private parking was a lifesaver, no hunting for a spot. Free Wi-Fi too, which is always welcome.”

8.8Verified guest

“Good location just off the metro – about 15 minutes on foot – and everything was fine. Close to the centre and minutes from restaurants. Easy walk to Magolosa, about 5 minutes.”

“The whole experience was excellent. Quiet area, yet well-placed for the main sights and the centre of Milan. Everything was great; I would have happily stayed longer.”

8.8Verified guest

“Two things stood out for me: it's well placed for the airport – Linate is just 12 km away, which made transit easy – and although not super close to the metro, the 7–8 minute walk to the nearest station was manageable.”

8.8Verified guest

“We really enjoyed the comfortable accommodation. Clean rooms just like the pictures, and the location near the metro was excellent.”

8.8Verified guest

“I stayed a few days and found the apartment excellently equipped, clean, and comfortable. Spotless linens and towels, plus a nice touch of two umbrellas. About a 13-minute walk to the metro, but it's a non-touristy area where you get to meet locals. The host was always reachable and helpful. A great stay – fully recommended.”
