The hotel is over 45 minutes outside of Milan. If you need access to the airport, it is a good choice. If you are looking for a city experience, it is too far away. The rooms are very compact. The staff are very young and not too savvy when it comes to dealing with non-Italian speaking guests. The breakfast was absolutely dreadful although a cost of 8 Euro is not excessive. The croissants were underbaked and gooey, the eggs were overcooked, the bacon undercooked. The fruit was sad. We came just after 9 am for a breakfast that should have lasted until 10 am. There wasn't a lot of food left, and the tables were not cleared. They charge 3 euro per person to get from the airport, which is literally 5 minutes away. It is better to take the 73/ bus for 1.5 euro although it does only run about every 1/2 hour. The 73 bus does take you not only to the airport, but on to the Duomo in downtown Milan, so that is useful, but it is a long bumpy ride. The picture shown of the hotel is misleading. The swimming pool is tiny and in an enclosed courtyard. It didn't look like more than a wading pool to me, although it was too cold out to tempt anyone to swim.
