Aladin Hotel

The room was very clean, the shower was good, and everyone on staff was kind and helpful. Breakfast was good too. It’s a bit away from Milan’s main tourist sights if you plan to walk, but there’s a bus right outside and a metro station less than five minutes away. For the price, it’s a good hotel.

Nothing seemed like too much trouble, and I’d definitely come back :))) It’s a lovely family-run place, well located for town and the tube station.

The staff were incredibly friendly, which was about the one bright spot. They greeted me with warm smiles, maybe to distract from how awkward it was to move around the room sideways. The room felt like a sardine tin, and changing my mind would’ve required stepping outside. I’ve been in broom closets with more room to breathe. If the walls were any closer, we’d be dating. I wouldn’t recommend it to anyone who’s claustrophobic, over 5’6”, or bringing more than a fanny pack. It’s an airless, expensive little playhouse. Book at your own risk, unless you want to relive childhood in a playhouse. ★☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆ (Negative 9 Stars)

The beds were soft and comfortable, everything was clean, and check-in went smoothly. Breakfast was standard hotel fare and had everything we needed. It’s a 25 minute walk from the train station, and you can reach the center by bus or by metro with a transfer. I do wish they’d sort out the sockets and wires in the rooms, since they looked dangerous. Still, it worked well for a couple of nights, and thanks especially for the birthday surprise!
