We had a fantastic stay here, everything was great! The apartment was modern and very well equipped with good quality items. Everything was clean and with little extras, such as cheese and crackers, chocolate biscuits, hot chocolate, and good coffee with milk. The owner was really friendly and super helpful. It was fairly quiet, so we had a good sleep. I would definitely stay here again and would totally recommend.

First Class - why stay anywhere else!

We had a great stay at Milano. From the friendly, helpful owners to the immaculate unit. Everything was first class and the little extra nibbles, soup etc., were appreciated. The motel is in a very convenient area, supermarket, within a great mall is nearby, as is the bus into the city right outside. Even a lovely garden to sit in and enjoy.
