Liked: Close to metro station - basic but adequate room - friendly and helpful staff.
Disliked: It was quite difficult to find the hostel as the number given in the listing actually belongs primarily to a museum which is next door.

Liked: The hostel is located in a park wtih other buildings in a calm neighbourhood. Although it is far from the center, it is very close to the subway station if you know the way. The breakfast is OK and there is a restaurant with good food in the next building. The room I stayed is quite big and has a lot of space.
Disliked: The reception is closed at 8 pm and the main entrance gate of the garden is closed before 11 pm. Therefore, I used another entrance and walked through the garden in return. If you do not discover it before, you have to find your way in the dark while you are returning.Other problem I have faced is the description of the access to the hostel only fits when you leave the subway from the right exit. If you leave the subway from a wrong exit, it takes too much time to find the hostel as you do not know the environment and ask to people while there is no map.

Liked: The staff are very friendly and do all they can to help. When there was an issue with another resident, they acted quickly and got the situation resolved. They also held our luggage for us all day after check-out so that we could explore Milan for the day.The breakfast is also nice, but is only served after 0830. We could only take advantage of it on 1 day of our 3 day stay as we needed to be away by 0800 in hte morning to get to the World Dog Show.Not too far from the centre of Milan and price is quite reasonable for accomodation in this city.
Disliked: The property is still very much a hospital, even down to the bed sheets and there are no soft-furnishings or carpets so noises seemed louder and everything echoes.There are still some former hospital patients who live in the hostel and, when we stayed, it was one of them who had drank on his medication which caused him to shout constantly in his room (the room next to us!) for over an hour. I managed to find a member of staff who did get someone to speak to him to resolve it. Shortly after, everything was quiet and we got a decent night's sleep. It was still quite worrying for my wife, although the next morning we saw the person and they were fine.Also, the TV in the lounge area was not working during our stay.

Liked: neighborhood seemed to have lots of children, and they locked the main gate at 8pm, so it seemed pretty safe
Disliked: The first night I stayed there, a live band was playing on the hostel property until about 1am, and I did not know this was scheduled until my arrival; I was a bit annoyed since the walls were very thin, and I had intended to get a good nights' sleep before an early wake-up. There was very poor lighting in the rooms, and the shared bathroom kept turning up dirty...
