This hostel is in a quiet neighborhood, yet it is close enough to the Duomo Cathedral area to walk. The staff was super helpful when I had some unexpected technology issues! The dorm rooms were super clean and spacious. The "atmosphere" of the building was simply charming....from the marble steps and adorable old wooden-door elevator to the subtle music playing from a piano down the street. It truly captures the atmosphere of Milan.
