Over the decades, we have decided that being close to a city's main train station is an important criterion for choosing our lodging. This place is an easy walk from Milano Centrale -- but it could be missed if you don't know exactly where to look! Once we got there, it was a nice stay. Even when using Google{R} maps and standing literally in front of the entrance, I had trouble locating this place, simply because the entrance is a door used by several businesses, and only a relatively small sign identifying that AV Hotel as one of those businesses. To get to that door after exiting Milano Centrale, (1) cross the main street in front of the stations's plaza, (2) turn left and walk on the sidewalk until you get to BPM (Banco Populare Milano), (3) turn right at this intersection to get on Via Recante, (4) you'll soon come to a door on the right, next to the cafe and across the street from the pizzeria, labelled ”a da recante 2” -- you should see a sign for ”AV Boutique Hotel” next to this door, (5) press the door button for this hotel, (6) tell the person that you're an arriving guest to get ”buzzed in,” and (7) ride the elevator up to the hotel. This sound FAR more complicated than it is, but knowing exactly what to do is a lot better than our feeling lost when standing in front of that door! Our room had a half-bath, phone, AC, hair dryer, free wifi, and TV with over 100 channels -- but none in English. It was clean, quiet, well-maintained, and had a great view of the station. Staff was friendly & professional. Since Milano Centrale is a five minute walk away, you can quickly get to all major tourist stops via Milan's mass transit system. For a wonderful continental breakfast, go next door to the Street Bar, and enjoy a cup of coffee with a pastry & a wonderful owner / server. Even in my short time there, I could tell a lot of regulars come in for their shot of caffeine along with some conversation. Just enjoy the real Italian experience! There are literally 100s of place to eat in this area, but the pizzeria across the street is a good place to start. A mini-mart is just a couple blocks away, where you can get inexpensive cold sodas, juices, and breads. If you want a good place close to Milano Centrale, this is a good choice.
