Pros:

Frukosten mycket bra, gott och fräscht.Lakanen var extra sköna. Fin inredning, lite Japaninspirerat och trevligt läge.

Cons:

Att vi fick betala extra för Espresso och Cappuccino till frukosten, borde ha ingått tillsammans med frukosten. Det fanns frystorkat kaffe som var kostnadsfritt.

Pros:

Die Lage war schön, am Wocheneden sehr viel los, aber vormittags und während der Woche sehr nett.

Cons:

Ich fand das Frühstück etwas mager, es gab zwar sehr viel Süßes (selbst das Müsli war süß), aber kein richtiges Brot, kaum Wurst- und Käseauswahl. Da bekommt man in Italien schon bei wesentlich günstigeren Hotels mehr und besser.

Lovely location in Milan, beware the nighttime noise!
Pros:

Great location close to metro and tram public transportation, beautiful views

Cons:

So so noisy at night even with ear plugs...a few hours of quiet then the early morning crashing of glass recycling. If we had known we would not have chosen a canal-view room. Also, the bed is very firm, good for some, not for us.

Cons:

20 Ekim.2026 kış ve yağmurlu olmasına rağmen dışardaki bar cafe'lerden inanılmaz YÜKSEK bağırışma sesleri içinde geceleri hiç uyuyamadık.Bununla ilgili otel sorunu bildiği için odaya kulak tıkacı koymuşmuşlar.
Pazartesi olmasına rağmen sesler 3.00'da kesildi ve uyuyabildik.
Oteli kesinlikle tavsiye ETMİYORUM.Kahvaltı çok vasat ve lezzetsizdi.Frozen kekler,crousantlar koymuşlar.Hiçbir şekilde memnun kalmadık.

Heel fijn en sfeervol, wel een eindje naar de highlights in het centrum
Pros:

Sfeervol gebouw met mooie inrichting, prima ontbijt met heerlijke verse cappucino, heel vriendelijk personeel

Cons:

De bedden waren heel hard, onze kamer minder mooi en fris dan op de foto’s.
De buurt is heel erg druk en toeristisch, vraag een kamer aan de binnenplaats!
Centrum is op 25 min ongeveer
