Clean and comfortable
My single room was small and not at all fancy, but it was clean and comfortable. The common areas and exterior for the downtown Milan location do not match the photos on this website--the real thing is actually nicer than what is pictured. The current photos must be from another location. We found the staff helpful and we loved a few of the details like free refills on sparkling water in the lobby.

This hotel has very convenient location in walking distance to the major attractions, Duomo, Sforzesco Castle, shopping, etc. Easy transportation, train and Metro also close by. Small rooms. Good for a couple of days.

This Hotel was wonderful. The location was excellent and the staff was fantastic. It was easy to walk everywhere. The castle, cathedral, and tons of shopping. The breakfast buffet was excellent and gave us a great start in the morning. Made for a great stay in Milan.

The bathroom is dated and needs renovation. The sinks are blocked and the drains create a lingering smell. Otherwise everything else was great
