Hotel Catalani e Madrid

You can hear the step and simple sound from the other rooms.

It doesn’t gave us a quiet night.

The property was near the central of Milan, easy to get to and easy if you want to reach The Duomo, Navigli and Central Station just one 10 mins ride of tube away.

The property is very old, you can hear everything that’s happening in the other rooms and on the other floors as there’s no insulation. In some rooms, like the one I was in, the heating is not working, so if you go during winter/autumn time, you freeze in the room. And as i could see, there’s no air con but just a fan which I’m not sure works, so during summer you’d melt. The rooms weren’t cleaned properly, especially bathrooms. I found a big chunk of hair in the middle of what was supposed to be a “clean” towel. The neighbourhood is good, full of people and bars during the day and afternoon but at night it empties out very quickly, so if you’re alone you need to watch over your shoulder a little bit more than usual let’s say. I’d say, whenever there’s a possibility, just pay a bit more and go somewhere nicer, with at least one star more. I, for sure, wont be coming back in this place.
