Milan Hotels with Balcony

"Overall, a good new hotel with unique rooms and a perfect location. However, all of that is overshadowed by the terrible soundproofing—or rather, the complete lack of it. It’s as if there are no walls at all. Earplugs saved us, and with them, everything was fine. It's better to choose a room with a balcony; thanks to ours, we had a wonderful four-day stay."

"Hotel location: The Milan HD8 Hotel is located directly opposite Milan Central Station, just across the road. It's also conveniently located for the airport express train, even more so than the regular train, as it's just a short walk across the road. Room space: Very small. Once a suitcase is laid flat, there's no room to walk around. Facilities and hygiene: The bathroom has a separate wet and dry area, and the air conditioning is very strong. It has a 6-foot double bed, but there were no toothbrushes, conditioner, slippers, or tissues. [Unexpected Safety Incident] On the second night of my stay, the power tripped twice in quick succession. When I reported the first outage, the male front desk staff member was surprisingly able to accurately state my room number. He contacted an engineer to inspect, and the conclusion was that it wasn't due to a problem in the room itself, but rather the main circuit breaker on the first floor where my room was located. After it was reset, the power was restored. However, less than half an hour later, the power tripped a second time. This time, the male front desk staff member didn't call an engineer; he came upstairs himself and attempted to close me in the room. I managed to hold the door open in time, and clearly informed him and pointed out the switch location inside the room, which prevented an unsafe situation! The male front desk staff member then went to the main circuit breaker, and the power in the room was restored in just 2-3 seconds (presumably by flipping the breaker). This male front desk staff member offered no comfort or apology, but instead asked, “Are you scared?” Because the power tripped twice on the same night, making it impossible to stay safely, I contacted Ctrip customer service representative L19742 around 3-4 AM China time. Ctrip handled the situation appropriately for me, and there were no further power outages after that. [In summary, even with a good hotel location, I do not recommend single travelers stay here.]"

"The hotel room looked very new and clean, and the front desk staff were friendly. Although the breakfast area was small, the food was good. The location is convenient, right across from the train station. The only downside was the lack of complimentary bottled water, and the tap water quality was concerning; I wouldn't even dare to drink it after boiling. Luckily, I had some mineral water left from the plane, otherwise I would have had to buy the hotel's overpriced water."

"The apartment is great. Everything is brand new, the house is nice. The neighborhood can look a litlle getto (as we were in august, many places are closed and covered in graffiti). The check in is very easy, you don’t have to find the key in the middle of nowhere. The service is little off cause we had a sink problem, left the application but nothing was ever done to it. Overall I would be glad to come bac I would be glad to come back!"
