We didn’t notice anything that we were afraid of from the bad reviews. Noise can be at any hotel, room neighbors are unpredictable, just have your earplugs with you! We really enjoyed this cozy, comfortable, clean property, extremely friendly and caring staff, in the central historical location. 👌👍

Excellent location right in the heart of Milan, 1 min walk to piazza Duomo. Hotel itself is a bit outdated, but convenient enough. Breakfast area is very small and you might need to wait for a table in am. Staff is very polite, accommodating. Overall a nice stay.

I booked three nights at this hotel in central Milan but checked out about five minutes after checking in. It was grimy, dingy, dirty, pokey and sketchy. The woman on the front desk was sour and even more unpleasant when I told her I couldn't stay there. I lost one night's payment, but I just couldn't see myself staying there. I'm not that fussy a traveller ... clean, safe and affordable are my standards ... but this place was awful.

o hotel

The hotel is very old, it has no instructions of how to flush the toilet, the blonde lady in the front desk is not nice; breakfast starts too late at 7:30, when you travel tours start at 7 so breakfast is kind of useless, the day I did had breakfast in the hotel, was wonderful and the bed is comfortable, in general hotel is ok, not great but not bad

The hotel is not well maintained and the room I had was so small, I could barely walk around the end and one side of the bed. Curtains that would not close, had a hole in them, and a neon sign on top of an adjacent building could not be blocked out and was fully visible all night. Blond woman at reception in the afternoon and evening was very crabby, gruff, inhospitable. Woman at reception in the morning (brunette) was very pleasant, hispita

Hotel fine but there is a big difference in rooms. Our room was small, cramped, and poor lighting, while our kids room was much larger and nicer. It worked fine, but be aware not all rooms are similar

For the location and price it was great! I do not think I would do this again for more than a night or two. The room was a closet with a bathroom. The hotel is very dated but clean. The staff super friend just one man acted like he could not be bothered and he had the evening shift. Again, for the location it is really good, I would stay again just not or more than a day or two.

The room was small and there was noise from the street during the night (which one could, eventually get used to). The staff were excellent and this is one of the few hotels where I've stayed where (including 4 stars!), if anything was wrong they would sort it almost immediately. Continental breakfast was quite reasonable.It is so central that you can forgive the little sins (just about).
