My husband and I stayed here for two nights in May and were horrified by the snobby hotel staff, something we didn't run into anywhere else in Italy. Their "double" bed isn't double sized, more like a large twin that doesn't fit two pillows wide. Since my hubby is over six foot, we were pretty cramped. The AC is a window unit, and ours made a terrifying racket. After it warmed itself, it sounded like it was falling out of the window every 15 minutes. But it was 90º outside, so we needed it on even at night, though it scared us awake. We got used to it, however; we'd shut it off, then wake stiflingly hot and turn it on again for another hour until it freaked out, repeatedly through the nights. Other than the AC issue, everything worked fine, though fixtures were old and spare. Hotel puts out a good breakfast and things were clean. The overall cost is far too high for the age of the rooms and furnishings, and the staff is dishearteningly unfriendly. It is a quick walk from the train station and easy to find, but the neighborhood is a bit sketchy, especially at night. I wouldn't stay here again.

It is a good hotel with confortable and clean rooms, employees are very polite, brekfast is good, price is low for a Italian hotel and is located very closed to Milano Central Railway Station. A very good choice!

I have scarcely ever had a more unpleasant stay in a hotel. I was a woman traveling by myself. I asked specifically for a very quiet room, as I was extremely tired and coming down with a cold. I went to dinner, came back and went to bed. A few minutes later someone started dumping glass bottles for several minutes in the bottom of the area right below my room. It was very noisy and kept me awake until about 11 p.m. I then went to sleep. at about 3 a.m. a person started hauling around paper and garbage in the same area directly below my room, and continued to do so for over an hour. I called the desk, asked them to stop it, and they did nothing. I finally yelled out the window to stop. The man said it was his job, and kept it up. At 5:30 I finally showered, and went down and asked that the desk person confirm my return flight. He could not get the airline on the phone, nor could he print out my travel documents. I asked for an early breakfast since I'd only gotten 4 hours of sleep: "No , we serve at 7 a.m" so I went to the train station, got some food, went to the airport, waited another 3 hours, then went home. It was my worst hotel stay ever!

This hotel had really deserved its 3* in the past. Unfortunately, the last visit was a nightmare. To save their money on your health and comfort, the management was so "clever" to put so called "centralized airconditioning"! Beware such hotels during the summer time, which have this type of conditioning. First of all it did not work well at all, no cold air arrived to the room, but rather slightly warm airstreams. After the 4 hours of activity my room still had the same temperature as it was outside, about 28! Second was the noise, that made this device. Such approach for their clients is absolutely inacceptable for the 3* hotel, so I downgrade it to the ordinar 2*.
