This hostel is in a quiet neighborhood, yet it is close enough to the Duomo Cathedral area to walk. The staff was super helpful when I had some unexpected technology issues! The dorm rooms were super clean and spacious. The "atmosphere" of the building was simply charming....from the marble steps and adorable old wooden-door elevator to the subtle music playing from a piano down the street. It truly captures the atmosphere of Milan.

The place is about 7 mins walk from the no 9 tram to Metro Centrale. Quiet neighbourhood. Safe. Clean. Best part of the stay is going on a Lake Como tour with a smart funny guide called Emanuel. He’s good at reading the room, attentive, catered to our every need and knew not to tell us too many boring history. We have had so many animated entertaining conversations; alleviating the outing the most enjoyable one I had in Italy. Highly recommend Emmanuel to anyone who wants to see Italy. Thank you Emmanuel. I’ll never forget you.

Five star hostel

I’m on a 2 week trip in Italy and started in Milano for 3 nights. The hostel was very clean with lots of extra shower and bathroom space. That was private which was nice if you didn’t feel comfortable showering in the rooms bathroom. Also the location is great as well. Short walk to the Doumo area and a bunch of other things as well. Plus they had lime scooters all over the city. So for the valve it’s great compared to the hotel prices!

It was close to everything but also out of the way enough that it was quiet at night. The beds were great but and the bathroom was fine was well but looked like it could have done with a slightly more thorough cleaning, but it really wasn’t that bad. I would definitely and stay again if the opportunity came up! The breakfast was simple but very good as well
