A ne pas recommander !!
Ayant déjà séjournée en auberge de jeunesse (notamment en Italie), je n'ai jamais vu un endroit si sale et peu entretenu.
L'auberge était sale, bruyante, malodorante et vétuste.
J'ai à peine osé prendre une douche tellement la salle de bain était sale. Je suis rentrée dans la douche en tongs, par dégout de la saleté.
Nous avions un protège matelas mais pas de draps, la couverture était parsemée de taches.
Les gens fumaient à l'intérieur même de l'auberge.
Heureusement je ne suis restée qu'une nuit, mais je ne la conseille vraiment à personne !!!!

awful
9 beds in a small room
no silence at night (only after 3 in the morning)
smell of sigarets in the hall way - and eventualy also in the dorms
only 1 sheet a bed
no confort in the beds

they use strange prices : some paid over 30 euro , others less then 20 - all in teh same room

Comments (English):
It is located quite far from the city centre (Duomo) and really far from the train station.

It's COLD and DIRTY. The bathrooms are disgusting and not suitable for taking a shower.
Rooms are dark and sad. Bed are equipped just with one thin blanket.
The kitchen is equipped just with a microwave - no cattle, not even a sink!
It;s not worth the money they ask you to pay!

The worts thing of Sweet hostel is to find it, there is a sign outside the building, but there is no sign to say you that the door of the hostel is not the main door of the building, we were 15 minutes disturbing the neighbur trying to find the hostel inside the building. You have to turn left just after go inside the first door, and go by the back door.

The rest was ok, the bedrooms were tidy and clean, the bathroom was very clean and new but with only a shower.

Beds were really old and with many strings left, so it was a bit unconfortable, but.. it was cheap.

The breakfast is in a cafe near the hostel, just a coffe and a croisant.

The square is not quite good, is really old and a bit sacary, but if you are a groups it doesn't matter; there is many really cheap kebaps restaurant just two minutes walking from the hostel.

The best: the metro station was very near. And in the hostel they don't have any problem if you eat or drink alcohol in the bedroom

i really enjoyed staying here. it had a very friendly vibe, and very easy to meet people. it was a bit far out of the center, but the staff here was amazing. marco was so nice and let me leave my stuff there while i headed back to rome for the weekend. he even let me kill some time there after i checked out before catching the train. they do have a little dog, jack, but hes harmless and super playful. i would stay here again

El hostel queda bastante lejos del centro. Marco es muy servicial y atento, de hecho, me fui una noche antes y me devolvio el dinero! El unico problema lo tuve con una cucaracha que anduvo merodeando el cuarto la primer noche.

Comments (English):
Milan is small, and has Metro system, so I think there is no much difference to where you live as long as the hostel close to any metro stop.
The hostel is decent and clean, but it's kind of small. I like the staff, they are friendly and are willing to assist. The only thing that I want to complain...probably is it's a little bit noisy, but, it's a small hostel, so it's difficult to avoid any disturbance.
