Summary of reviewsB&B Music enjoys high praise for its outstanding location near the Istria Metro station on the M5 line, providing guests with easy access to central Milan and various key city attractions. The tranquil neighborhood, marked by a good connection to public transport and nearby amenities, makes it a convenient base for travelers. Proximity to sites like the Niguarda Hospital or the Bicocca area, along with available parking options, offers added advantages for those with specific needs.
The breakfast experience receives mixed to negative reviews with appreciation for the inclusion of breakfast being offset by a lack of variety and quality. The offerings, limited to croissants, coffee and packaged juices, often failed to impress with some positive mentions about the freshness of croissants and the coffee's quality.
Dining becomes a delightful experience outside the hotel with reviews lauding nearby restaurants, especially a notable pizza place and other local eateries including Italian and Chinese options. While the absence of an on-site restaurant for dinner creates a minor inconvenience, the stellar local dining scene compensates well, delivering great value for money.
The rooms, appreciated for their cleanliness and spaciousness, come with daily cleaning services and sometimes additional perks like balconies and private bathrooms. Friendly and helpful staff significantly enhance the guest experience. However, inconsistencies in room conditions such as broken fixtures, poor ventilation and inconsistent maintenance hint at areas needing improvement.
Cleanliness is a toss-up with many rooms being spotless and well-maintained while some common areas and shared bathrooms seem to lag behind, marked by issues like mold and outdated facilities. The necessity for substantial maintenance and more rigorous housekeeping protocols is a recurring theme.
Staff interactions are predominantly positive, highlighting the team's friendliness and helpfulness. Round-the-clock reception services and commendations for specific staff members contribute positively to the guest experience. Nonetheless, communication barriers and occasional unprofessional behavior reflect a need for more consistent training.
Wi-Fi performance reliably disappoints with frequent complaints about weak to non-existent signals, particularly in rooms, suggesting a vital area for improvement. Parking is well-catered with secure options available for a fee, though the limited space and tight entrance could be a consideration for guests.
While B&B Music is well-situated for enjoying Milan’s nightlife and bar scene, the positives are countered by issues with noise both from street activities and within the hotel, detracting from the overall restful atmosphere.
Finally, bed comfort is a mixed bag with numerous reviews noting comfort and cleanliness. However, several guests reported uncomfortable experiences due to old, creaky or poorly maintained beds, impacting the sleep quality for some.
In summary, B&B Music offers a strategically located and well-priced accommodation option with commendable guest services and clean rooms. Improvements in breakfast offerings, Wi-Fi connectivity, room maintenance and soundproofing are suggested to enhance the overall guest experience.

Guest Reviews
Location
Guests appreciate the tranquil neighborhood in which B&B Music is situated, providing a peaceful retreat without sacrificing accessibility to key city attractions. The area is well-connected, not only via metro but also by bus and tram, facilitating effortless travel throughout Milan.
Moreover, the hotel's position is convenient for those with specific commitments, such as visits to the nearby Niguarda Hospital or Bicocca area. Parking options are also available, which is favorable for those traveling by car.
While not right in the bustling city center, the proximity to public transportation means that central Milan is just a brief metro ride away. The neighborhood itself offers small shops, various restaurants and cafes, ensuring that basic needs and culinary desires are easily met without venturing far.
In summary, B&B Music's strategic location near the Istria Metro station, in a quiet but accessible neighborhood, provides guests with an excellent base for exploring Milan.
Breakfast
Several guests highlighted the simplicity of the breakfast, often describing it as basic, minimal or even meager. Some reviews noted that it was more than sufficient for a budget stay with fresh pastries like croissants being a highlight for a few. Unfortunately, others found the breakfast poorly organized and characterized by limited offerings—often only a croissant and a coffee, sometimes served from a reception counter. Complaints included industrially packaged items, stale pastries and a lack of replenishment after 9 AM, leading to scarce choices for latecomers.
For those valuing a hearty start of the day, B&B Music’s breakfast may not meet expectations. Suggestions in reviews indicated improvements could be made by adding more drink options, some savory items and addressing the overall freshness and quality of food. Despite the occasional positive note about the coffee and croissants, the general sentiment leaned toward a far-from-adequate breakfast experience.
Dinner
Rooms
However, the experience can be inconsistent. Many guests have noted issues with ventilation and broken windows, leading to rooms being uncomfortably hot or poorly insulated from noise. Facilities appear to be aging with some elements such as shutters, TV and various installments not functioning properly. The shared bathroom setup also receives mixed feedback—while some find them clean and functional, others report issues with mold, broken fixtures and inadequate lighting.
For travelers seeking a budget-friendly option with essential amenities and a large room, 'B&B Music' may suffice. Nonetheless, prospective guests should manage expectations regarding room conditions and temperature control. The hotel's proximity to public transport and polite staff are strong points, but the general wear and tear, together with the need for better maintenance, suggests it may not suit all preferences, particularly for those sensitive to noise or seeking more modern comforts.
Beds
However, there were significant mentions of discomfort due to a variety of issues. Several guests encountered old, creaky and even broken beds with specific issues like thin mattresses, exposed springs and beds that were ruptured or had broken slats. In some instances, beds were described as small, dirty and unsafe, particularly the high loft beds without barriers. There were also concerns about the bedding quality with mentions of dirty bed covers, sheets smaller than the bed size and in some cases, mattresses full of mites.
Despite the presence of clean linens and comfortable beds in multiple reviews, the inconsistency in bed quality seemed to detract from the overall positive experience of some guests, making the comfort a hit-or-miss aspect of staying at B&B Music.
Cleanliness
Positive notes often emphasize clean rooms and bathrooms with some guests appreciating the daily cleaning service and fresh bed linens that smell good. The shared bathrooms also received praise for being kept very clean. The overall structure of the hotel has been described as clean and fragrant and attention is given to overall cleanliness.
However, there are consistent issues that cannot be overlooked. These include dirty common areas, mold in showers, dirty walls and bathrooms in poor condition. Specific problems such as cracked windows, broken bathroom fixtures, moldy ceilings and inadequate room soundproofing contribute to a less favorable impression. Instances of neglected cleaning services, dusty environments and old, worn-out facilities further detract from the positive aspects.
Guests have mentioned that the hotel suffers from inadequate maintenance with things like rusty showers, peeling paint in corridors and stained mattresses. These problems indicate a need for substantial renovations and improved housekeeping protocols.
Despite the daily cleaning service in some rooms, other areas appear to be in dire need of more thorough and regular cleaning. The consistent mention of mold and overall poor hygiene standards suggests that the hotel might need a more rigorous approach to maintaining cleanliness to meet guest expectations adequately.
In summary, while B&B Music offers several clean rooms and attentive daily services, potential guests should be prepared for varying cleanliness standards and aging facilities that might affect their stay.
Staff
Reception services are noted as being available 24/7 with night staff being particularly accommodating and courteous, even welcoming guests at late hours without hassle. Several specific employees, such as Mehdi and Marco, are recognized for their helpfulness and cooperative nature. This high level of staff availability and assistance is often seen as a standout feature of the B&B.
However, not all experiences are rosy. There are mentions of foreign staff struggling with Italian and English, leading to communication barriers. Some guests report encountering rude, unwelcoming and unprofessional staff members, which detracts from their stay. Complaints about the reception being unresponsive or non-existent at times and some staff being inflexible or dismissive are also present.
Despite these negative comments, the general consensus points towards a friendly and accommodating staff, making B&B Music a place where many guests feel well-treated and looked after. Issues like varying staff behavior suggest a need for more consistent training but do not overshadow the numerous positive interactions shared by many visitors.
Wi-Fi
Parking
For those who prefer other options, there is a garage close to the structure, providing additional paid parking. Some guests found parking nearby with relatively easy access. However, there were mentions of the underground parking being slightly inconvenient and the entrance to the parking lot being tight. Guests should plan for the parking fee, as there are no free parking options either on-site or on the street.
Overall, while B&B Music does provide secure and guarded parking options at an added cost, the limited number of spaces and the charge should be taken into consideration when planning a stay.
