Reviews and Ratings
My stay at the hotel was a mix of positives and negatives. The rooms were spacious with a small balcony and big wardrobe, but not soundproofed, which was a downside. The location was excellent, just a stone's throw away from Piazza del Duomo. However, the dining options were limited, and the service had its ups and downs.
My stay was a mixed experience. The room situation was a bit confusing as I upgraded to a double room but ended up in a single room without any extra payment. The room was clean but extremely small and felt a bit cramped for just one person. However, the location was truly a highlight, being right outside a tram stop and steps away from the Duomo square. The dining options were limited but satisfactory, and the service was friendly but with a minor issue during check-in. Overall, a decent stay with some ups and downs.
The hotel's location is unbeatable, just a stone's throw away from the Duomo, offering easy access to Milan's main attractions. The rooms were cozy but had some issues upon arrival. Service was friendly and helpful, especially with tips for exploring the city. The dining experience exceeded expectations, featuring a diverse and delicious breakfast. The place could benefit from renovations to match today's standards.
My stay at the hotel was a mix of positives and negatives. The location was superb, being within walking distance to most places of interest and shopping areas, right by the Dome. However, the rooms were tiny with very old furniture and a small TV, needing renovation to feel cozy. The service was practical and professional, although not very smiley, and the gluten-free breakfast was good but could use some improvement. The dining options were limited, and the noise from the tram stand downstairs could be disruptive at night.
My stay at the hotel was a mix of positives and negatives. The room I stayed in was on the top floor, tiny, and very hot, which made it challenging to sleep due to the street noises that eventually quieted down late at night. The room was outdated and in desperate need of a makeover. However, I appreciated that the charges were per room and not per unit.
The hotel offers basic rooms that lack comfort like eating while sweating can be a bothersome experience. The small size of the room is acceptable, but it needs renovation to create a cozy atmosphere. The bathroom amenities are limited to just soap.
The hotel is in a fantastic location just outside of Duomo square, right by the metro. The rooms were pretty small and not overly comfortable but clean; however, there were cigarette butts on the walls. The service was nice, friendly, and helpful, with staff willing to assist me up the stairs. The dining options were continental but varied in a tiny dining room. The location was excellent, close to major attractions like The Duomo and Gallery Scala di Milan, though some renewal works were needed. The hotel is very safe and lively, with proximity to the train station and sustainability aspects. The breakfast was considered sufficient but may not accommodate all guests. The facilities were acceptable but could be upgraded to provide a better experience.
The hotel is ideally located, just steps from the famous Duomo and a subway station, perfect for exploring main Milan attractions. The rooms, although a bit small, were suitable for one person but could be priced more fairly. The welcoming service, especially the lady at breakfast, added a nice touch to my experience. Dining options were limited but satisfactory, and I would love to see updates to the facilities to match current standards before considering a return.
I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The location is superb, just next to the Duomo, but the rooms were quite cramped whenever there were more than 6 people around. The service was friendly and helpful, especially the cleaning staff who came by for a chat. The dining options left much to be desired due to the limited range, but the facilities were satisfactory.
The hotel offers a convenient location near Duomo and great shopping, with small but clean rooms. The staff are helpful and cheerful, though the dining options could be better.
