Even though it’s a bit expensive, nice overall experience. Helpful and nice stuff, easy to socialize, cool events. Beds are comfy.
comfy beds, a lot of activities, the bathrooms could be cleaned more often but still ok for a hostel 🙂
Very cool place to stay with a lot of chances to meet new people!
Monica, Ala, Luca and everybody make you feel at home. It feels like being in a friend’s living room at a party. Kisses and hugs ❤️❤️
The rooms don’t have many shelves, no closet, etc but the bed is comfortable, the shower is good and the hotel had a lot to offer. Free pasta dinner many nights, communicate kitchen and laundry, good location near Metro. Great staff. We would stay here again. We got a private room with bath, great value compared to other hotels in town especially during peak seasons
This week was special because of the F1 i hope I’ll come back and find the same vibe same service as in Florence 🥳
The hostel was good; the bed was comfortable, and everything was really clean. The position is also good, 5 minutes walking distance from the underground and near the Duomo.
Clean, extremely social, well kept, would absolutely stay there again.
For my first experience in a hostel, I have to say that I was perfect ! Great staff and areas
I stayed in the 8-bed dorm at this hostel, and while there are definitely some strong points, the overall experience in that room was disappointing.
• Room size: The 8-bed dorm is far too small. The lack of space makes it hard to breathe comfortably, and it feels overcrowded. I’ve stayed in a hostel in Bordeaux with an 8-bed room that was much more spacious and cost less. I understand Milan has a “city premium,” but this level of tightness ruins the stay. Honestly, it would be better to remove the 8-bed dorm option altogether and stick with the 6-bed rooms, which are more livable.
• Cleanliness & smell: With so little space, smells linger. Dirty clothes and shoes left around by guests made the room feel sticky and suffocating. More rules, reminders, or checks could improve this.
• Air conditioning: The AC made noise all night, disturbing sleep. A fix here would go a long way.
That said, there are positives worth mentioning:
• Location: Fantastic spot, making it very convenient to explore Milan.
• Staff: The team is friendly, welcoming, and always ready to help.
• Atmosphere & events: The hostel creates a great social vibe. The events and common areas make it easy to meet people, which is a huge plus for solo travelers.
Bottom line:
This hostel has a lot going for it – great location, friendly staff, and a lively atmosphere. But the 8-bed dorm is simply not up to standard. Until it’s improved (or removed), I’d recommend sticking to the smaller dorms or looking at alternatives.
All great, except for the mold in the showers. Please fix this and you will be a 10/10. Christina at front desk super helpful.
Well located, friendly and knowledgeable staff, top rated maintenance and cleanliness.
Everything was okay, i loved the curtain on the bed and i like that you provide soap and shampoo. Although the water pressure on the shower head is really weak.
