Great location, really friendly and helpful staff, good beds and facilities in the dorms (and the other guests were well behaved - which helped). Great to have a kitchen and ability to cook ones own food, as well as to get breakfast, coffee or a drink at the downstairs bar. Short walk to the centre of the city. Great price and absolutely delightful.

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.
