I just spent 3 nights at Il Girasole, and can't think of anything negative to say about it. The hosts went out of their way to help me with any and all questions.

Brothers Nicola and Matteo were the most welcoming hosts and insured our time in Milan was most enjoyable. Would highly recommend this gem of a b and b/hotel. In a city were accommodations are extremely expensive this place was very affordable. Would definitely stay here again.

We loved the hotel. Everything from comfort to service and location was exceptional. The hotel is beautiful overlooking.Staying there was a memorable experience. I would definitely choose this hotel when returning again to Milan. February 2012
