This property was terrible, I’ll try and stay constructive. The address of where the room is on Expedia is correct, however it’s a converted office block and has no reception. The reception details on Expedia are incorrect and when you arrive at the rooms there are no directions… you will need to go into a neighbouring shop and ask. The hotel telephone number is incorrect and when you finally get into the room, it’s not worth what you paid. Staff were friendly and have heard the issues before, however clearly nothing changes. I wouldn’t recommend staying here, I’d rather sleep at a bus shelter.

Loved the location in the upscale Brera district. Central to everything for visiting all areas. Location in a piazza was lovely. We stayed in the platinum city suite and it was large, upscale & modern. Breakfast at the hotel in the morning was fantastic. We were spoiled.

We take blame for not reading the fine print on this property. There IS NO hotel at this location. It's an abandoned office bldg with 4 suites on 2 levels renovated into lodging of sorts. 1) Cab driver's GPS and our 2 mapping systems couldn't find this address. The actual hotel is 3 blocks away. 2) This property advertised "laundry" which didn't exist and we were in desperate need of. An offer was made to "outsource" our belongings which was not going to end well. 3) The only accessible power outlet was above the bathroom sink which prevented any device recharging. 4) Each floor and the bldg itself are electronically locked requiring a button push for passage. That means if there's fire or power outage, you're trapped. Security? We'd call it a CODE VIOLATION in the US. 5) Trip hazard. Polished marble floors and 3 steps up to the bathroom was an accident waiting to happen and I've got the bruises to show for it. I'd ask for a refund, but I'm sure I'd be advised...... "you didn't read the fine print". Other than that and the 9.2 rating, how'd you like the show Mrs Lincoln?

Our family of four stayed for just one night and had a great experience! Our room was about a block their main hotel, which was fine, as we were escorted across a beautiful piazza to our clean and up to date room! Great walking distance to Duomo, shops and restaurants.

Spacious room with a big circle bed. Very quiet area but still about 15min walking distance to touristy stuff. The 4 rating is due to the lack of privacy of the bathroom. It’s a glass door that see through and doesn’t provide much privacy (visually and sound wise). Also the staff was mixed. Very friendly female reception in the morning and in breakfast room. The bald gentleman in the afternoon was ok.

Nice but strange

Friendly staff, weird hotel. We checked in and had to walk to another building across tbe street to our room. There were numeros locks to enter the building, then more locks to enter a strange reception area with nobody there. There were several rooms that opened up to reception area. The room was nice and clean but the A/C shut itself off in the middle of the night
