Good value for Milan

The hotel/guesthouse is easily reached from the centre of Milan by metro followed by a short walk (past a nice bakery). Il Girasole looks unconventional, being a converted factory building. A nice courtyard is hidden behind a metal entrance door. Matteo and his brother are extremely nice hosts, who can provide enthusiastic advice on sightseeing in Milan. Our room was one of the two behind the courtyard which, unfortunately, the WiFi signal from the main building didn't reach - but was fine if you sat outside near reception/breakfast room. Room was clean and comfortable and spacious enough for chairs and a table. Bed was too firm for me (not my wife) so just luck of the draw. No tea/coffee making facilities per the property description, but also no glass for a drink of water (complimentary bottle of water for the first night). Nice breakfast: tea or coffee, a glass of fruit juice, a croissant and a salami and/or cheese roll.

Perfekt

Das Hotel war hervorragend. Ich hatte einen sehr schönes Zimmer mit Ausblick auf den Hinterhof des Hotels mit der schönen Terasse. Das Frühstück war sehr lecker und alles sehr frisch, der italienische Kaffee war toll. Das Personal bzw. die Inhaber waren äußerst nett, man hat sich gleich sehr wohl und persönlich willkommen gefühlt. Dieses Hotel wird meine Adresse sein, wenn ich nochmal nach Mailand komme. Sehr angenehme Entfernung zu Fuß zur Universität Biccoca.

This is a really nice place, run by two brothers who are charming, kind and filled with good energy. The place is not easy to find if you are using public transport: look for the image of a sunflower on the building, it does make it easier to spot. Also you may wish to ask for rooms facing the inner courtyard and not the street; not because of noise (the streets are quiet), but because the building across the street keeps its light on at night, and that can be disturbing for sleep. The area is very nice and they were kind enough to direct me to the nearby canal, ideal for jogging.

Una struttura a 3 stelle con un personale a 5 stelle. Nicola e Matteo sono estremamente cortesi e disponibili. Le camere, molto spaziose, sono pulitissime e arredate con molto gusto, e il cortile interno consente relax e silenzio. Penso sia difficile trovare un rapporto qualita' prezzo migliore di quanto offerto dal Girasole. Assolutamente consigliato, anche per la posizione, a soli 100 metri dalla metro. Io ci ritornero' di sicuro :-)
