In brief

What works, what to weigh

+

Strengths

4 reasons to book
  • Unbeatable central location — Right in the heart of Milan, a 10-minute walk from Missori metro and a 20-minute stroll to Galleria Vittorio Emanuele II. Guests say it's a short walk to the Duomo and main attractions.
  • Outstanding staff and service — Staff consistently described as friendly, helpful, and going above and beyond—from helping with lost documents to offering walking tours and local tips.
  • Free breakfast and dinner — A generous complimentary meal plan that guests rave about. Reviews mention made-to-order breakfast, diverse dinner options, and free snacks all day.

Worth weighing

4 to weigh
  • No on-site parking — The hostel doesn't list parking facilities, so guests arriving by car will need to find public parking nearby—likely at an additional cost in central Milan.
  • Check-in starts at 14:30 — The check-in window opens in the afternoon, which may be inconvenient for early arrivals. However, luggage storage is available.
  • Dormitory living is not for everyone — Many rooms are shared dorms (up to 10 beds), so light sleepers or privacy seekers may find private 'Elegant Rooms' limited. Noise from the lively bar and social spaces is part of the experience.
  • Smoking is restricted to non-smoking rooms — All rooms are non-smoking, so smokers must use outdoor areas (terrace, garden furniture) which are available.

“This hostel blew me away. The location is unbeatable, right in the heart of the city, minutes from the Duomo. Staff went above and beyond to make me feel at home – they even offered a walking tour and served great breakfast and dinner. The rooms were surprisingly spacious and well-equipped for the price.
