First Class - why stay anywhere else!
We had a great stay at Milano. From the friendly, helpful owners to the immaculate unit. Everything was first class and the little extra nibbles, soup etc., were appreciated. The motel is in a very convenient area, supermarket, within a great mall is nearby, as is the bus into the city right outside. Even a lovely garden to sit in and enjoy.

Travelled with family and small children
Disliked: Staff & service
Location was good but service was very average. The owner told me that I had got through a loop hole with my booking as he had blocked everything out as he was so tired, but somehow my booking had very inconveniently come through Expedia. He rang me at lunchtime to see what time we would check in. I said we were easy with time - he said that 3pm would suit him.. but unfortunately our plans changed and we couldn't get there until 5.15pm. When I rang him back to advise him of this he was very rude with me and asked me just to come and get the key now as he was going out. This wasn't possible as I didn't have our vechile to be able to do this my husband had taken it with our children to do some city stuff! When we arrived at 5.15pm he made it very clear that our whole booking was an inconvenience! When we got to the room the place was freezing, no heating had been turned on and bathroom window couldn't shut.Empty toilet roll on the holder & the place had a very strong scented smell. I was very pleased it was a one night only!
