L'Orologio Logistics
If you are here for more than 1 month, ask for the same price for 1 month of internet connectivity for your whole stay or it will be 8 euros/day after the month.
Get a monthly bus pass. It is for the calendar month, so time it appropriately. Get it at Porto Nuova near the Center.
Ask for a) a kitchen towel and b) a rack for drying your clothes (if you don't plan to use the very epensive service at 8 euros/blouse and much more for other items.
Ask Maurizia Gibbone at the Center to arrange transportation if you are flying in-out of Malpensa. It is far cheaper than a cab or the car service the Town House Hotel uses.
Try to stick to bus #12 at the stop at Vespucci. It runs frequently in the mornings. The evenings are more tricky. The 58 and 58b come to our stop, but not consistently and I haven't figured it out yet.
Share a cab with Carmela and Artur on late event nights. They are on your way home. Carmela will reimburse you for the fares and then she will be reimbursed by UNM.
If our contract is back on for sure when I leave in Feb., I will leave some things for you: decent knife, cutting board, tongs, veggie pealer. I'll leave them at the Center and let you know where to find them.
Work with Paola Sera at the Center. She is an angel and you will love her instantly. They don't speak much English here at L'Orologio so she can help you work through any interesting situations like a lack of hot water or lots of water leaking from underneath your tub. Don't get me wrong, it's a nice place. But, like most multi-tennant buildings, it has its challenges.
Ok, brain drain just set in...
