Hotel Aspromonte - Milan

Really nice hotel, good breakfast and close to Metro and with a view over the park.

Aspromonte is located on Piazza Aspromonte, a charming park used by locals to play Bocci, children to play, as well as a dog play area. This gives the whole area a safe neighborhood feel. The hotel itself is well worth the money with fairly large, clean rooms and comfortable beds. The staff mostly speak English with varying degrees of competence, but all are helpful and friendly. Breakfast is rather skimpy and repetative by our standards but guests can order freshly made espresso, capuccino, etc. There is no elevator but the staff gladly hauls guests' luggage to the rooms. Mine was on the second floor (third floor to us) and had only a roof window, so I was unable to look out but I was able to open and close the window electronically. Nearest metro stop is Loreto, convenient for red and green lines, and only a few blocks away. As a single woman I felt safe walking in this neighborhood and staying at this hotel. I recommend this hotel to anyone seeking a value-priced hotel in pricey Milan except those who have a problem walking steps. As I said, there is no elevator, which is the big drawback for this hotel.

I spent three nights at the hotel with my son and I will certainly return there if I'll need it again. I strongly recommend the hotel, very clean, nice common areas,kind and competent staff.

The rooms were good for the price that i`ve paid

Very helpful staff, good breakfast, room was nice and clean but small.

Three days here. Evrything quite shabby and uncomfortable. The bathroom (and in particular the shower) was expecially uncomfortable. Quite unfriendly people at the desk.

Hotel nicely situated, facing a park. The staff was helpful and friendly, and when we were looking for a florist, found one on the internet. Ground floor rooms are a bit noisy. The directions say that the Loreto metro station is nearby, which is true, but do not say that the No. 33 tram, which goes to the Central Station, stops 30 meters away from the door of the hotel.

Nice place. The complementary breakfast was really good as was the coffee :). The presence of the bar is a bonus but we didn't really use it much. Rooms were clean and functional, but the triple we had could've been a tad larger. The bathrooms need to be better maintained - showers in both rooms we had didn't drain quickly enough and the shower cubicle doors took some effort to close correctly. Staff was quite helpful with directions etc. Location is good, walking distance to the Metro and the Buenos Aires shopping area is a huge plus.

The hotel was adequate for our needs, easily accessible by tram to the train station. It was basic but extremely clean. Breakfast was plain but again, adequate. For the price, there were absolutely no complaints. Would I stay here again .... the answer is certainly if I wanted to visit Milan and stay in a budget hotel in a decent location which serves my needs.

Very pleasant if brief stay. Was nice to be so close to where our flight departed.

We´ve been to Milan for the first time. The hotel is located 3 minutes from the Corso Buenos Aires and the metro station. It is modern and pleasant. Breakfast was not very extensive but okay.

The hotel is a bit away from the city center (2 or 3 underground stops, or 30ish min walk), but the room was very good, very quite, clean and very good bed, and ensuite bathroom. And with the winter offer the price was excellent for us. The stuff was very friendly as well and recomened us a close "tratoria" where we had a gorgeous t-bone steak. Very good hotel overall.

We were delighted with our stay at the Aspromonte. It's hard to pick out of hundreds, but the Aspromonte was a little gem. Overlooking a small park to the front, our rear room with small balcony overlooked a small external breakfast area and was extremely quiet. About 45 mins walk from the Duomo, although out of the centre of Milan, it was an interesting walk back and forth and we did not use public transport once. Nice breakfast with warm croissants and proper expresso/cappuccino setting you up for the day. The staff were extremely helpful, especially Anna, who had lots of good advice and tips and speaks very good English. We would go back anytime we were in Milan to stay at the Aspromonte as it was good value for money and an ideal base.

The room was very small and not so clean. It was quite old-style and very expensive....

Not so far to metro station. Hotel is close to a park, with quiet rooms. Room rate is reasonable compared to those of downtown.

I stayed in Milan with my boyfriend and some friends, was the best part of our trip around Europe, the hotel was amazing, the hospitality, the attention...everything was super good! the hotel is clean, the breakfast area is super cute and comfortable.. totally worth it to stay if you are gonna stop in Milan!

We stayed in this hotel for only 1 night but were very confident. The Hotel is small and nice, the people are very friendly, rooms are small but clean, bath ok (we were two women!) and for the price you cannot say anything. Best thing was breakfast in the little backyard. Beautiful underneath the pergola. We will come again!

Located in a good location in Milano, But the bathroom was constantly hot, and the square adjacent to the hotel was not as beautiful as decribed.

Mostly ok, but inadequate and noisy air-condition.

The hotel was very good for the price. the staff were very nice and the smoking/breakfast area in the back was peaceful. However far away from the middle of town when metros stop at 12 and then taxis get dare.

We are a couple in our early 60s from London, England. The staff at the Aspromonte were genuinely welcoming and friendly, and always willing to help in any way. Our room was fine and the bathroom excellent. Breakfast was something to look forward to with serious coffee and a good spread of food. On a warm day we could have it outside in the attractive back garden. Our only whinge is that the price is on the high side, particularly from Thursday to Sunday, but we would happily return to the Aspromonte.

We stayed for two nights. The location was good - a short walk from a major metro station, which is a couple stops from the Duomo on Line 1, and several stops from the Centrale station on Line 2. Both the outside and inside seemed quite nice for a hotel at this price range in an Italian city (e.g., automatic front door and some stylish furniture) - but it does not look as warm and romantic as in the photographs (which was fine by me). The property looks smaller than in the photograph - the buildings in this are are generally like townhouses, and only the middle part of what you see in the photo is the actual property. The outside impression was not amazing, but once inside we were happier. The hotel is located on one side of a small square (which is a park), along a line of small hotels like this one. The street running in front is a two-way street, but it is not too loud overall. The room was very decent (again, for this price - simple and clean) and equipped with everything it claims. Our room had a decent-sized bathroom (with shower, not tub), double bed, TV, desk, closet, night tables, and suit hanger. The place would have been quiet, but there was a loud customer in an adjacent room - and considering that the walls are not particularly thick (i.e., the structure is like a house), it woke my fiance up. Breakfast was a pleasant surprise compared to a couple other places we stayed in this price range. It is a small buffet in the hotel's cafe-bar area, which had coffee, juice, yoghurt, cereal and milk, various jams and nutella, cheese, bread, and pastries. Front desk was efficient and nice overall. The mother (?) spoke beautiful English, and initiated a conversation with us on our way to town, to make sure we had a map and knew the best ways to get around (and where to see!). She also discussed with us at length concerning the best way to get to the airport. The son and daughter were more reserved, but were both efficient and precise in handling

I enjoyed my vacations at hotel Aspromonte. Great atmosphere and service! Thank you!

Very friendly,helpful English-speaking staff. They arranged a taxi for 04.30 to take us to the airport shuttle! Hotel very clean and well placed (5 minute walk) for the Metro into the centre of Milan. Several local restaurants 5 minutes away. This would be my first choice hotel when visiting Milan again.

Ottima colazione!

El aire acondicionado de la habitación no funcionaba y considerando que estabamos en pleno verano esto fue un problema serio. Los empleados del hotel no hicieron nada por resolver el problema. Además que es un caso que es básico e manteniemiento y que un hotel no puede fallar en eso.

I've been staying at Hotel Aspromonte for almost 2 weeks and I had a very pleasant time there. The employees are very nice and well-manered, they welcomed me very warmly, the room was clean and exactly what I needed for my business trip. What I liked best was the terrace in the back where I could have the coffee in the morning. Thank you!

An excellent stay. Clean, neat, comfortable and hospitable place. Wonderfully friendly staff led with great efficiency and warmth by Signora Anna. Excellent location - close to really good public transport, particularly at Piazzale Loreto. Plenty of good shops, food and places of interest nearby. Great value too. Very easy access from Linate Airport or the central railway station.

We stayed at the Aspromonte only one night. It's located in a pleasant-enough residential neighborhood, but not really convenient to anything major. The metro stop is about a 5 - 10 minute walk and then it's only about 15 minutes to the Duomo. We found a nice restaurant (Nuovo Convento) near the hotel, but there aren't a lot of choices. The hotel itself is nice and there's a lovely garden for breakfast or a drink. Breakfast buffet was very good. Room size was decent - certainly adequate and the bathroom was ample. Although it's a 3-star, there is no elevator. Staff are competent in English and are helpful. It's only about a 15-minute cab ride from Linate Airport.

The hotel is good, but a little old

Nice friendly staff, it was no problem to take our breakfast to our room, so we could 'sleep in' ;-)

Really well cleaned, small but hospitable room, bed not comfortable (mattress warped). Molta pulizia, Stanze piccole ma accoglienti, letto scomodo (materasso deformato).

It was a very nice stay at Hotel Aspromente. The staff was very friendly and offered help whenever I needed some. My room had a beautiful view to the garden. This small garden with blooming trees seemed to be a little paradise in the midst of the big city.

Ottima permanenza, come al solito d'altronde.

Friendly, excellent value for money

Of all the Milanese hotels I have stayed in, Aspromonte rooms are the largest. Even though it is not in the city center, it was only a short subway (Loreto) or tram ride away (although the subway is not as close as you'd like it to be - it's not terribly far, but if you're doing a lot of shopping on the nearby streets or coming back late at night, you sort of want some place a little closer). The rooms are large, including bathroom/shower. The breakfast isn't anything special - bread, cheese, ham, and coffee/cappuccino. The hotel's staff seems young, helpful, and professional. It would have been a perfect stay, but I think most of the people staying in the hotel were smokers during our stay, as the hotel had a "smoky" smell permeating it. We really couldn't sleep during our short stay. We just kept the window open (during the middle of winter).

Great value, small room but clean, nice people and good breakfast

Hotel was okay - nothing special. Quite a distance from the centre though-even for two physically fit males it was a long trek back every night on foot. Also the park that the hotel is on has a few ladies of the night hanging around in the early hours. Average value for money.

I thought this hotel was one of the best values we had on this trip and would have no reservation about staying there in the future.

We had an excellent stay, the staff were very helpful and pleasent. The room was clean and basic but very good value for money. The breakfast was simple but good for the price paid. Would recommend this hotel and will book again.

Clean, very good value, helpful service, everything worked

Good budget hotel in perfect location to all public transports.Breakfast is forgettable but compensated with helpful,friendly,efficent staff./No lift in the 2 floored building so people with walking difficulties or heavy luggages be recommended to book ground floor rooms/

For the money in Milan, our stay was fine. The room we stayed in, (steetside, no windows, two skylights, was in need of some upgrading, but was clean and everything worked. The bathroom was rather current. The sheets were clean and the shower hot. The noise from the hall at all hours of the night was a little distracting. The hotel staff was very helpful and pointed us to a great nearby neighborhood restaurant where we ate two nights.

ALbergo tranquillo e accogliente, ottimamente collegato con l'aereoposto (1bus+metro). Su una piazza silenziosa con una grande giardino alberato.L'accoglienza è stata cordiale e simpatica, c'è una confortevole sala per la colazione. La stanza è pulita e ordinata. Il bagno è OK e funzionale. Anche se ero senza macchina è facile parcheggiare nella piazza. Ottimo albergo in relazione al prezzo e consigliabile senza riserve.

This is only formally a two-star hotel, but it's actually a 3-star; in fact, it's easy to find in Italy a 3-star hotel worse than this one. Breakfast is excellent. Best choice for quality / price ratio. Quest' albergo è solo formalmente un due stelle, in realtà potrebbe essere classificato a tutti gli effetti come un tre stelle; anzi, si incontrano molti 3 stelle decisamente peggiori. Ottima colazione. Un unico piccolo appunto si può fare sulla mancata esplicita menzione sul sito del fatto che l' aria condizionata è a pagamento.

A very positive experience! The staff was excellent and the rooms much better than I had hoped for. The only disappointment was the shower, which was more like a drizzle... Breakfast was plain, but good. Overall, we were happy enough with our stay to book rooms for our return-trip two weeks later.

This hotel was fabulous. it was similar in price to other comparable hotels in other cities. the staff was extremely helpful and sweet as sugar. they spoke very good english, helped us book a hotel in another city and got train schedules for us. it was great. the location is outside the city center--a few minutes walk and a few minutes on the subway--but was still great b/c it's outside the very 'touristy' areas. if you really want to see italy--leave the city center for a bit-it's wonderful.

The hotel absolutely is value for money. Room is clean and exactly shown on the photoes. Good location, close to the metro station Loreto (5 mins walk from the hotel) and only 2 stops from the termini. Decent food is served for breakfast and staff are very helpful.

Great location. Easy access to Metro,or you can walk all over the city. Very friendly staff who speak English well and were most helpful. Great value. Would stay again

The staff were very nice and the rooms were always very clean. The breakfast was good but you didn't have a lot to choose from. The hotel is very nice although some of the things were broken or seem like they will break anytime, like our bathroom door which we were unable to close. Overall, it was nice and simple hotel for a good price and I'd go there again. A really big plus for the nice staff, they were really helpful.

Ottimo albergo, con un eccellente rapporto qualità/prezzo.

Quality vs. Price is Excellent+++. Hotel clerks speak English very well. Close to Metro and not too far to walk to Milan historic center. Standard continental breakfast. Quiet rooms. I was able to park the car on the street across from the hotel front door. Easy to get to from the Autostrada. Excellent choice, and we would definitely stay there again.

The first night was very cold and there were no more blankets in the room,so we used towels. The breakfast was minimum standard,included only one cappuchino.The following must be paid. The rooms are very loud.A normal conversation ( and more) could be heard in all details. The shower was nice, but the not flowing off not.The second person was able to use the bathroom in standing on a chair.

Good basic hotel with very friendly people

The staff were very welcoming. The only problem we had was finding the hotel. Not all streets were marked on the map.

When we come back to milan one time, we would take hotel aspromonte definetely again. we enjoyed the days in the hotel, it was great. thanks to all the employees, greetings from germany

Hotel "utilitaire" bénéficiant d'un bon rapport qualité/prix ... avec les prix promotionnels ce qui constitue à mes yeux sa qualité première surtout à Milan où l'hotellerie est chère. Personnel et environnement banal ...

A good choice! The rooms are not very spacious but quiet, clean and in good nightborhood and close to City Center and Train Station.

The accomodation was exactly what we were looking for the staff were friendly and spoke very good English. The rooms have Air con in the Summer months and Central heating in the cooler months the rooms are comfortable and quiet. Location is in Piazza Aspromonte which is a big square with a park in the middle we found the accomodation quiet peaceful and really easy to get to everything via cheap public transportation such as metro, tram, bus or walking as there is a very long main shopping street close by. Very happy with our stay, Highly recomended.

Very friendly and helpful staff. Twin room was small but adequate for a short stay. Our only complaints were noisy wooden floorboards and early morning alamrm clocks in the surrounding rooms.

Near the old PoliMi and Metrostation. Friendly reception and quiet surrounding. So a good place if you need a place were to sleep in Milan for work. And the pubblic garden just in front of the Aspromonte can be a bonus if you have children.

The employees are really helpful and have an excellent level of english. For a 2 star hotel the breakfast is fine. You can find the same in a 4 star hotel. The rooms are very small but clean. They should change the beds, are not so confortable. The hotel is really close to the metro station, 5 minutes walking, you don't need a car nor taxi. The surrounding area is calm, but not very attractive in winter. The hotel is quite close from the city downtown from metro, only 10 minutes from the metro station loreto. What i mostly appreciated was the simpaty of the reception employees.

This was my 3rd time in Milano, and each time I stay in Aspromonte. It is easily accessible by car, not far from the center and close to several good restaurants. The staff is efficient, the breakfast is good. What does one need more?

The entire Hotel consists out of hard materials so it´s loud and you hear every move next door. Tried to charge me too many beers

The hotel was in a really good location, within 5 mins walk of the corso buenos aires. The only complaint really was that we had a the downstairs room next door to the breakfast bar and it was very noisy into the late hours of the night. Otherwise room clean, basic and breakfast OK.

The small park of Aspromonte was not easy to find. Got lost when I gotta out of the nearby metro station...since there were many exits and many intersections. But as long as you have a detailed map of the neighborhood, I think it's ok. 5~10 mins walk from metro exits. Staff are all English speaking and very kind. My room has a balcony facing the street and park, which is a little bit noisy, but ok since it's generally a quite neighborhood (some young people talking loudly in the park one night..) Walking down from the Corso Buenos Aires to Notre Dame is nice (20~30mins)...you get to see all the shops....

Some of the friendliest staff I've ever come across anywhere.Arranging tickets to see Inter Milan for 20 Euros at 3 hours notice(in the most exciting part of the stadium)was reason enough for staying there.4 mins from the metro station which is 4 or 5 stops from The Duomo.I paid 40 euros a night for a single with bathromm in December.Bargain.

We wouldn't stay there again. The staff are NOT friendly at all. Breakfast was included but poor. We stayed on the ground floor and it was extremely noise (near the stair).

For an airport hotel, this was a superb deal, both price and location. I would not recommend it for those wanting to "site-see" in Barcelona since it is quite a distance from the city proper, however, for transit accommodations, it is excellent.

The free parking outside the hotel is such a great thing, a quiet neighborhood. The should do something to keep the noise out of the rooms. Decoration and breakfast can be improved. The Metro station is close the hotel

Je voulais enmener ma copine en voyage à Milan mais je ne savais ou dormir. En cherchant sur le net j'ai opté pour cet hotel. Mon avis est très positif, le patron " pepe" est d'une gentillesse formidable. Ses Conseils pour sortir ( restauration, shopping, culture ) sont trés pros. Quand nous retournerons à Milan c'est dans cet hotel que nous irons. Il est idéalement placé. Si vous êtes bien avec "pepe" il vous recomandera le meilleur ooso buco de milan. L'avis de ma copine est: " c'est plus que de l'hotellerie c'est du réel tourisme !!!" Vincent et Cécile. ( 27 et 23 ans) Merci à eux.

I wasnt sure what to expect seeing as the price was so reasonable, but we were warmly welcomed to a spacious, clean, quiet cosy room and were delighted with our choice.The staff couldn't of been friendlier recommending everything from great cheap local resaurants to fun lively bars and night clubs to all the worthwhile must see sights!It was perfect and we couldn't of asked for a cosier, fun and friendlier stay!

This was a comfortable small hotel, with a warm, welcoming and helpful staff. room was adequate, breakfast was very good (cheeses, meats, pastry, toast, cereal, etc), and the property was clean. the location was a bit far from the center, but extremely close to the metro and other forms of public transportation, so the distance as not such a problem for us. the hotel was able to provide us with tickets to the inter vs milan football match, which provided us with the highlight of our vacation. definitely recommended.

In comparison to other hotels we've been in in Italy, this one was the cheapest and best in facilities, cleanliness, breakfast and our overall feeling.

Sehr nettes Personal, spricht prima Englisch ( im Gegensatz zu den meisten Italienern !!!). Die Lage top in der Nähe von U- Straßenbahn, aber nicht zusehr in der Innenstadt, also gut über die Autobahn zu erreichen. Die Parkplatzsituation ist - wie überall in Mailand - etwas problematisch, aber man findet irgendwo immer was, halt nur nicht direkt in der gleichen Straße ... Wir werden beim nächsten Mailand-Besuch bestimmt wieder hierher kommen ! For the only-english-speaking : a very friendly stuff, good placed, parking not so good, but possible - and i will comme again

First off: nice stay. The Aspromonte is a #1 address for travellers with little money. The rooms are clean (some spiderwebs at the ceiling which has ~3.50m[11ft] - who cares?). Personnel is friendly and helpful. Breakfast is... - well, I'm german, we have quite a different idea what a breakfast (especially bread) should look like - so... breakfast is ok. The walls are a little thin, so you need neighbours who are not too loud. During our stay the walls got new painting. The hotel will look better after that. All in all the Aspromonte is better than you might expect for that price. The next underground-station (Loreto) is ~250m away. You better leave your car at home, you won't need it, unless you have too much money for your shopping tour...

Got an airconditioned double at this place with shower and toilet and tv for 60 bucks, nice room, and the a/c made all the difference. not a great location if you plan to travel by foot. staff was very helpful. room would probably be much more expensive during peak time.

Uitstekend hotel voor redelijke prijs. Zeer behulpzaam en vriendelijk personeel. Prima verbinding met de metro naar het centrum. Minpuntje: in de omgeving van het hotel staan 's avonds hoertjes op straat.

The attic room we had was a bit dusty and very hot, we had to keep the airco on all night. Furthermore it was quite good value for money, we had better hotels in Italy but those were more expensive.

The Aspromonte was a great choice, we were very pleased with our stay there. We stayed at the Aspromonte twice, at the start and end of our tour around Italy. Both times we had the same room, one at the front with a small terrace overlooking the (quiet)piazza. The room was clean and spacious with a powerful shower (always apppreciated!) and colour T.V. The breakfast here was the best out all the hotels we stayed in throughout our trip and to be commended. The only negative point that my partner experienced was late night noise caused by other guests returning (although for a heavy sleeper like me, it caused no discomfort)

Nicely situated in a quiet area opposite a small park. Easy to reach on tram route 33 from outside the central station. Room was small but very clean and air-conditioned. Breakfast is basic but can be taken in the back garden. Staff speak good English.

Staff molto gentile, aiutano in tutto (consigli, orari, prenotazioni, ecc) L'hotel e perfettamente raggiungibile con mezzi.

Best brekfast ever!!! really close to the metro and train station. Great value for money accomodation for the time of year the price we paid was 70 per night which jumps to 140 in the high season.

We stayed at the Aspromonte Hotel between 7th July and 10th July 2004. We located the hotel with ease, but parking was difficult as the streets are incredibly busy with cars parked all over the place. The Hotel actually asked for a neighbour of theirs to move their car so we could park right outside, very helpful. The room was as described - 2 single beds, head to head with a cabinet in the middle of them. The room also had air conditioning and a tv. We were at the back of the hotel facing the garden/patio area which was quite quiet. The breakfast was very good with coffee and tea, orange juice, cereal and toast, or croissants. Located about 20 minutes walk from the centre of milan, there is also a metro stop which is just near by, about 100m away and this only cost us 2 Euro each for a day which was very good and the service of their underground is good. Their did not appear to be much around the hotel, except a small park in front. I would definately use this hotel again as the value for money was great. The only downside is the rooms can become noisy at night if your nieghbours are loud. The hotel staff were execellent and were very helpful, giving us advice, directions, and booking us in to see the Last Supper.

There seemed to be a slight mix up with the nights booked but the hotel was very accomadadyting and sorted it out. the rooms we changed into (2 on sepearte floors) tended to have a high noise level from the steps. Close to 2 metro lines, very accessable to city

Very nice employees. help you with everything. clean, big rooms

Excellent hotel for the price paid with all staff very friendly and most helpful.

Kleines, angenehmes Hotel für Stadtreisende. Kleiner, ruhiger Romantischer Garten zum Frühstücken. Der Blick auf den Park ist ein wenig unruhig.

Super place. I just hope the secret doesn't get out or I won't beable to get a room next time!

Das kleine familär geführte ASPROMONTE ist ein sauberes und gemütliches 2-Sterne-Hotel. Der Empfang ist ausgesprochen freundlich und kompetent (mehrsprachig!). Die nächste Metro-Station LORETO ist nur fünf Fuss-Minuten entfernt und man erreicht mit der Bahn die City in weiteren fünf bis zehn Minuten. Ein großer Supermarkt ist zehn Minuten zu Fuss entfernt. Gegenüber dem ASPROMONTE befindet sich ein großer Spielplatz und abgetrennte Hundeflächen - hier ist noch bis zehn Uhr was los. Fazit: Ein idealer Aufenthalt für flexible und mittelständisch orientierte Pärchen oder Kleinfamilien. Empfehlenswert!

Great welcome! Great breakfast - cereal,toast or toasted sandwich,ham,cheese,croissants,yogurt etc.Handy for underground.Not a lot to do in the area in the evening,although the pizzas in nearby "Grog" were the best we've tasted!Take a mosquito plug-in and repellent - we all got very badly bitten overnight in the hotel!

The staff is very competent, helpfull and friendly. Next visit to Milan, I will stay in this hotel again, for sure.

Very good small hotel for couple of days stay. Location is good, metro station very near and also main Railway station not so far away. Personnel very helpful and corteous, frendly. We were very satisfyed and I can recommend this hotel to my friends.

The Aspromonte is definately worth recommending. A cosy hotel with good hospitabel service and great coffee. It is not located in the citycenter but the neighbourhood is nice and friendly and there is easy access to all destinations with the metrosystem. The two best things about our stay at the Aspromonte were the small outside breakfast dining area, and the great service provided by the reception employees in the retrievement of 4 pairs of forgotten shoes. Thank you!

Close to main station, friendly staff, good breakfast. A/C in room didn't work. I can definitely recommend this nice little hotel to anyone going to Milano!

There was no parking despite of your description. The hotel needs an urgent renovation.

Hotel Aspromonte rates very highly for helpfulness of staff, who speak excellent English and are very willing to give advice, look up information, and make you feel welcome. Breakfast was excellent, and the location convenient to the train station and metro. The area seemed quite safe, and there is a very good Asian/Italian restaurant nearby. The only problem was with poor soundproofing of rooms.

Staff were friendly and helpful, but I reserved a single room, and it was tiny and dark. ON check-out I could see the double rooms were much larger. On next trip to Milan I will probably stay in a 3 or 4 star hotel.

Very pleasant little hotel, convenient for getting into the heart of Milan. Only minor problem was the sound-proofing between rooms.
