Comments: they dont take credit card which we thought was weird and you have to be back to the hotel by midnight. but its only a few metro stops from the city and nice enough rooms and bathrooms although we were there for 3 nights and they didn't once clean our room.

Comments: a bit out of town, you need to catch a bus and then a metro but make sure you buy a bus ticket, unlike we did, coz if you dont its a 34euro fine each! Clean and fine but closes at 1am so if your up for an all night party not the best spot

Comments: Kind of run down, beds were unstable cots, seemed like someone threw it together. Sink wobbled. Just strange place overall. The staff was alright, but location also was pretty bad.

Comments: Our taxi driver warned us about people on the street around here so its in the Milan Ghetto a bit but other than that its fine. Safe once inside the gate, very clean. Cheap.

Comments: I booked a room thru trav that in fact didn't exist (a twin bed room with shared bathroom, they gave me a double). Staff were very unhelpful, blamed me for the error when its clearly trav/Hotel Brivio, and then refused to refund my deposit. Was not a happy bunny...

Comments: Beware, you really need to know the metro/bus system to find this place. Construction across the street, starts around 7am. I was given a room with a shower and toilet, but the room reeked of smoke. I was then forced to change rooms the next day; it still smelled of cigarette smoke, and faced the construction site. All in all, I would definitely NOT recommend this hotel. It's not worth the 2 stars and absolutely not worth the money.

Comments: It's a bit far from the main Milan station, 12 euros on a taxi ride.... However, it's really clean and the beds are really nice and comfy. The staff struggles to speak English, and it's paid in cash as they said card payments incur on a fee, other than that, it's a good hotel. Good value for money.

Comments: Dingy & in a dodgy area, though not unsafe because of the security gates. Online description misleading, stating 'Breakfast is served in the garden.' When we arrived we were told there was no breakfast, although they could make us coffee if we wished. 15 min walk to Metro station which has direct & very fast & cheap connection to centre (Duomo etc). Family-run, friendly staff (though they speak very little English). Not a highlight for us, but decent just to sleep at the end of the day.

Comments: You can hear other people on the corridor because of the door which has a glass painted window in it. Further a room for a single is smal, you can just walk beside 2 sides of your bed. No breakfast included. But nice owners.

Comments: transportation was not a problem but its not the safest place after it gets dark. the first night we were freezing since there was no heating in the room. second night they changed the room with a warmer one. having a conversation with the staff was also a problem.

Comments: Was alright for price point of accomodation in Milan. Very thin walls, door paneling made of glass which was painted over. Room a bit cold but it did warm up. Lovely shower. Family-run business so you have to deal with the pro's and con's of that. Would have appreciated knowing the following beforehand: owner didn't take credit card (only cash upfront) for payment; no receipt until checkout; breakfast not included and would have been very meager. Supermarket nearby with good selection of food.

Comments: The hotel staff were very friendly and helpful, the dog was very friendly and playful as well.. It was very cold first two nights but when asked to turn the heating on of a night and another blanket the staff quickly arranged it. Very noisey with single glazed windows, busy road not far and a building site directly opposite the hotel. Orally a good stay
