“The location proves ideal for easy access to transportation, especially the nearby Loreto station, simplifying trips to Milano Centrale and the Duomo. Rooms are generally clean, and the staff earns high marks for their helpfulness; just be aware that some amenities, like air conditioning, might involve an extra charge. For budget-conscious travelers who prioritize location and service, this could be a practical base.”
