The hotel is OK--rooms are clean and beds/bedding are nice quality. Room overall is decent size, however the lighting is dark, room was warm and I could not seem to regulate temperature myself. There are no "extras"--no shampoos or creams, no robes, no water bottles, no mini bar....not even a glass in the bathroom. The shower is tiny and barely large enough for one person. No closets or luggage rack and no channels on the TV that were in English-not even CNN or BBC. The WIFI is good but you have to log in again every time you leave and return to the hotel and the password is obscure and not memorable so you must rely on a very small piece of paper with the user name and password. The front desk staff could be helpful or not depending on who was on. One fellow who was there most of the time always acted like he was doing me a favor by acknowledging me and answering my questions or getting me a bottle of water (1 Euro). Breakfast was pleasant and the dining room is modern and nicely appointed.

Disliked: Cleanliness
The hotel was in a good location for us. The breakfast buffet was adequate, and I applaud the hotel for being ecological by using soap/body wash/shampoo dispensers in the bathroom and shower and using large containers of jams/jellies and nutella and a honey comb, rather than individually wrapped servings at breakfast - they need to do so with the butter now too! The room was very small, so small that the bed took up the entire room and we had to climb on the bed to get in it, there was no room on the sides of the bed. The bathroom was nice, the shower had great water pressure. Our biggest complaint was how absolutely dirty and moldy the floor of the shower stall was. I also find it odd that the photo presented of this hotel is of the fussball game, which is indeed there, but a photo of the breakfast area would be much nicer to show. To sum it up, I will likely not stay here again, it was very expensive, the room tiny, shower moldy, and breakfast not extraordinary. We like the location because it is near restaurants on the waterfront and is walkable to the Dom and The Last Supper.....but I would seek out another hotel in the area if I were to visit Milan again.

Wifi does not work properly
This hote would receive near perfect score from me if it weren't for the horrible wifi. The wifi goes away within 2-5 minutes of receiving a signal. One keeps getting disconnected and one has to wait for the signal to return. Previous commenters have made the hotel aware of this, and it was obvious the hotel staff was aware. There is no excuse in 2018 for a hotel of this stature to have bad wifi. I have stayed in lesser quality hotels than this all around the world with better wifi. Fix your wifi -- or stop advertising that you have free wifi. You don't have free wifi if it doesn't work properly.

Basic Modern Clean & Great Location
staff are super friendly, super easy check-in, great for business trips and its location is just perfect - 20 mins walk to Duomo and 15 mins walk to Navigli Canal. The only down side (which isn't major for short stay) is the bathroom, they are tiny and handles little rusty. Other than that, perfect and really friendly staff.

Great Location! The hotel is in the city Centre, and within walking distance to really good restaurants. I found the staff to be welcoming and friendly. I spoke only English and that was fine, they understood me. The breakfast selection was small but delicious. I was a little surprised by the room size, it was very small. Trying to fit more than 2 people in their standard room is not a good idea. Overall, if you are just staying a couple days or overnight in Milan, and you are looking for convenience in the Centre, this a good hotel for that function.
