It is located pretty near to Lambrate station so you can use both train and metro, there are stores where one can buy food and drinks or take a cheap and good breakfast, the room and badroom was clean, wifi works good. The personal is nice and helpfull. I would totally stay again there. Good price! There are fans that cool down the room and make it possible to sleep since I went when the temperature was between 29-33 grades.

Didnt know I had the take a lock with me to close my locker but is possible to buy one there for 3 euro. The kitchen closes at 10pm so it is not possible to drink cold water if you are coming back late in the night.

I booked a 6-bed shared dorm for 5 nights from Nov 23-28, 2023. At arrival, the staff told me the first night I'd sleep in a 7-bed dorm, and the rest 4 nights in a 4-bed dorm, so I didn't ask any question since it'd end up like an "upgrade." Unfortunately the 7-bed dorm smelt like there was a hidden dirty dog. I was worried about the rest of the stay. However, the rest of 4 nights in the 4-bed dorm, the condition was good. Despite the 7-bed dorm smelled bad, it wasn't dirty. Both the 7-bed dorm and the 4-bed dorm had clean rooms; the beds, the walls, the floors, the bathrooms, all were well-maintained of the hygiene level. I especially want to praise the shower/toilet rooms, cuz I was at other hostels with better rating and higher prices in OTHER EU cities, BUT the shower rooms were horrible, where VERY OFTEN the water wouldn't drain cuz girls' hair stuck in the pipe, the water level went up after 2 mins of showering, I ended up taking a shower like a spiderwoman placing my feet on the shower-room porches. A clean shower room inside a female shared dorm like in this hostel where the water drains perfectly is like a dream! The staff were very warm and nice. They were mostly from Egypt. I'd like to thank the staff Ahmed, and everyone else working there.

The 7-bed dorm didn't smell good. I think it was a 6-bed dorm, somehow there was an extra bed. I forgot the room number.

The staff were great! I wasn’t aware of the €2 payment and I had no cash when I arrived. One of the staff paid it which is exceptionally kind🙏 It should be made clear that there is an additional charge as that could’ve been really difficult. Someone came into the room really late (it’s a dorm). I thought that was good they extended the time for her. Ideally there should be mattress protectors so these can also be washed but the sheets were super clean and excellent quality. There wasn’t a breakfast.

Very close to a metro stop and had a lot of restaurants and markets around. The staff was very friendly and helpful. The room was very spacious with its own bathroom.

Did not have a lot of plugs to change the phone in the room. And the ones it did have where mostly located on one side of the room. On my side there where only two plugs and their location was not very comfortable to charge my phone close to me.

The place is in a strategic location, near the Green line (that connects you to Milano Centrale train/shuttles station) and to Lambrate train station. The neighborhood seems quiet and easy, and there are some places where to grab something to eat. I found the hostel clean and comfy for a single-night stay. No air-conditioned in the room, but there were a couple of fans to move the air. In a room of 6, there were 8 different-sizes lockers, and you can use your padlock to close them.

I was on the upper bed, and I had no light and socket next to me - I had to use one next to the bed under me and pull the cable toward me.

Friendly & helpful staff.

The hostel signboard outside is not illuminated and most people arriving after sunset can have a tough time finding the place.

The staff was really really kind and helped with every question you had. They sold locks for the lo keys in the room for a cheap price. You could store important stuff in the lockers in the room. The room had 2 bathroom sinks so when the bathroom was occupied you could still use the second bathroom sink. The room was big enough and mostly tide. The location of the hostel was really good! There was a metro station in reach around 3-4min. Also there was a bigger train station (Lambrate) in reach of 5min. When you come from Bergamo, you could get off there and don't have to drive back from the Central station. The central station was in reach with the metro around 10min and everything else was also very good to reach with the metro.

I know it's not included (aircon) but it was really hot during the nights.

Very comfortable bed and very good PILLOW. The room where I stayed occupies 4 guests, but very big enough. Staffs are very friendly. There's big playing area on the ground floor, a TV and kitchen. A very nice play to meet other tourist/travellers. There's also nearby supermarket like Penny which is just around 3-5 minutes walk from the location. Underground station could also reach within around 10 minutes of walk.

The building is quite old and rest room's lock still uses the old key to open. Nevertheless, they are well maintained and clean. I hope they could modernize them in the future.
