Hotel Argentina B&b Milano (Milan, Italy)

Argentina B&B is situated just off Buenos Aires Street (Corso Buenos Aires), the street with the highest concentration of clothing stores in Europe which ends up at Duomo Square. Aside from the shopping however, there is a good assortment of restaurants in the area as well and the short walking distance to the metro station puts you no more than five minutes away by train to the city's top cultural and historical sites as well.

Milan can be an expensive city and the accommodation provided at this hostel is comfortable and has lots of perks for those on a budget just spending a few nights- such as the free Wi-Fi and parking at a location nearby (paid extra).

The free self-service breakfast is certainly a perk and previous guests have appreciated the variety, quality and decent portions on offer every day.

Depending on the day of the week and time of year, guests may experience some disturbances if their rooms are those closest to the busy street and the metro line. Having ear plugs on hand or requesting one of the rooms furthest away from the street has solved this guests in the past, though.

There are two shared bathrooms for the five rooms on the property and no ensuite rooms, which can be a deal-breaker for some. Guests have also commented that their overall maintenance and cleanliness could be improved.

Being above a restaurant, it can be confusing as to where exactly the hostel entrance is and how to get in. Since you'll need to call the reception on the intercom, it's best to inform them of your arrival time so check-in goes quickly and problem-free.
