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's a convenient location but I didn't find the staff very friendly. One night stay if you are in transition between cities is the only reason to stay here.

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

I know this is not a 5 star hotel but when you advertise that you have a/c you should have it and not say the government is regulating when it can be turned on.

Stayed here for two nights in Milan. The dorm was spacious and beds quite comfortable. Bathroom was decent, two showers but they had no space to hang clothes/place shampoo etc.? Very inconvenient. There was AC which was a big plus during the summer. No breakfast included which was a con. There are many great places close by, though. It is placed in a quiet and nice neighborhood within walking distance to the metro - approx. 15 min.

The hostel is incredibly well organized, from where the rooms are to the other facilities: laundry room (they offer a paid laundry service in which they do your laundry on one working day), kitchen, balcony, bar etc. The reception answers your questions clearly and objectively, they provide you with a chance to store your luggage in the basement when you check out early, the (paid) breakfast is very complete and well prepared, that's including both a coffee and a juice machine. The beds are the most comfortable I've ever slept on in hostels, the heating is neither under nor overpowered, just enough for you to feel comfortable but not have trouble sleeping. The bathrooms are well maintained and although shared, you can easily and privately take your showers without any intrusion or discomfort (I would however suggest the addition of more and perhaps hangers in the shower cabin). Each bed has a light spot and outlet plug, plus a couple of usb ports. There's space for you to store a bottle of water or a book above your pillow and the pillow area has a small covering so that people won't intrude in your sleeping. A curtain would have made it beyond reproach. Access control is safely done by card tapping so no unauthorized people have access to the dormitory area. Lockers are provided, they are spacious and safe. The bonus is the vintage elevator, which overloads class and cuteness!
