The staff were wonderful, friendly atmosphere and helpful.

That it was close to a lot of amenities.

I found the pricing was a little high for what it was, considering I have booked other hostels for much cheaper.

Will visit again!

The place has an amazing vibe! The receptionist Alessia is such a nice and helpful staff! I got assigned to a very cosy room and a free drink at the bar downstairs. If I visit Milan again, I will definitely book a stay here!✌ Once again, thanks Alessia! 🙏

Exceptional!

Breakfast was amazing! We stayed only one day my husband and our twins. Location was perfect 👌🏻 so walking distance to all the museums and Milan Cathedral, shopping, great restaurants close by. We will be back and will stay more nights. We had a wonderful time. René at the front desk was so sweet and welcoming. Thank you for a great stay ! We love Milan and this hostel.

The rooms should be bigger. We love the private bathroom.

“Perfect location, friendly staff, and great amenities—an amazing first hostel experience, especially for a Milanista!”

“This was my first experience staying in a hostel, and it exceeded my expectations! The location is absolutely perfect—10 out of 10. The rooms are comfortable, with good beds, and there’s a kitchen available where you can cook. The best part? The hostel provides free grocery supplies, which is such a thoughtful touch. Plus, as a Milanista, I was thrilled to see they support AC Milan! I’d definitely recommend this place to my friends.”

A real hostel, with lovely atmosphere and cozy rooms, right in the centre of Milan

- Super-friendly staff in a cozy and welcoming environment - Perfect location, just a few steps from Milan city centre - Every night a different show (stand up comedy, karaoke, reading, etc) - Double room was very cute, with all essential furniture and lovely decor - Common kictchen with lots of free goods

Nothing really :) keep going!

Perfect for a solo traveller

The staff was nice and accommodating. There was a free welcome drink which was a nice surprise. Everything was unlocked through an app from the phone (quite modern). The location is close to Duomo (walkable). As soon as you exit the hostel, you'll find a nice street with different dining and shopping options. If you're there on a Sunday, make sure to book the brunch! :)

The water from the shower spilled over the floor, which made it a bit messy for the next person. It would be nice to have some kind of mop around so people clean properly after their turn.

Fabulous

Overall, it's a great place. I love the location and the vibe of the place, esp the bar/restaurant on the ground

Nothing negative, but areas that can be enhanced- I wish there are other separate toilet and shower that one can use when the ensuite toilet is occupied. Would be great to have curtains in the individual bunks for added privacy. Have more hooks or areas within the bunk bed perimeter to hang clothes/hangers/coat

Thoughtful hostel with all kinds of amenities - great vibes, good people, highly recommend!

Great vibes, excellent breakfast, staff aimed to be inclusive to events, lots of spaces to interact or chill on your own. Location was great - tucked away but still very central. Loved the welcome drink as well!

It's always nice to have a curtain with the beds to limit distractions and provide privacy, but that would require a big overhaul. And a wine opener in the kitchen would be great!

PERFETTO (means “perfect” in Italian)

Everything. Im not a share-ur-room kind of girl usually but this place gave me the BEST experience. I had booked it few times when ive stayed there because i wanted to stay more. The whole atmosphere, all the workers always smile amd responsive and have a laugh and helps u with EVERYTHING u need. Listen, as a princess that loves her Airbnb account-believe me-it is actually better then having ur own place, cause here u are absolutely feel at home. And in the female dormitory u have tampons and whatever girl needs so it melted my heart. And even when i had to book the mix dorms-they let me feel super comfortable after having a not so good experience with his and also that room was super comfortable. PERFETTO HOSTEL.

Nothing. I loved it all i swear.

Lovely staff and good location. There’s free tea and coffee etc which is a nice touch and I felt very safe

Not loads of space on the bottom bunk and couldn’t sit up fully without hitting my head, quite expensive for a hostel but think this reflects Milan prices

Lots of fun

The staff were so welcoming when I arrived. My room was comfortable and I met some nice people.

The hostel entrance opens right onto a lane where people drive up and there’s no footpath so you are stepping out onto a road. Just have to be careful!

Perfect for solo travelers to make friends or do your own thing. It was amazing

The ultimate standard of a perfect hostel with tons of activities all week with some meals included in the stay. Friendly staff and international vibes all around the hostel, best part is it is right in the centre of Milan and walkable to everywhere. ACs in the room and very new facilities.

That I missed out on lots of events happening in the hostel!

Fabulous

Location really close to Duomo and you have everything around the hostel. Reception very helpful. Each room has own bathroom.

Less choice on breakfast and everyday was the same, also if you came later there might be some food finished and they don't replenish the food when it runs out at the buffet.

Was nice stay

I stayed in 6 dormitories room it’s quiet small but it’s ok for a short stay, The location is great close to all what you need, it’s about 10 mints from Dumo metro station, the stuff were all really friendly and helpful, also in the 3rd floor there is a kitchen you can cook if you want, and they provide coffee, tea biscuits for free . At night it’s quiet noisy overall it’s nice place to stay at

It’s looks old building but very clean & the Room is small, the bed is not really comfortable
