The hotel was built in 70-s, but well maintained. The size of rooms is closer to 3 stars, but the bed is very comfortable. The service is excellent. The breakfast was the best that we ate in Italy. 5 minutes walk to underground station. There are good pizzeries and trattories close to the hotel.

A visit to Bocconi University brought me to the Una Mediterraneo. It was a nice hotel, but I would never choose it for the neighborhood. There are restaurants nearby, but the general neighborhood leaves a few somethings to be desired.
It certainly caters to the business crowd, although its internet was not functioning when we were there (it did if you brought your own computer). It's not the place for an Italian experience: we were always greeted in English.
The rooms were small, but clean and quite comfortable. The bathroom was also quite small, but beautifully appointed. The front desk clerks were helpful in making dinner reservations and calling cabs, as well as arranging wake-up calls.
Breakfast was elaborate; they had everything from bacon & eggs to breakfast meats and cheeses, to pastries, toast, cereals, and, of course, cafe as you like it.
Perhaps its room rate is aligned with those in Milan, but it almost seemed unnecessarily high.

Very unpleasant, definitively not a 4-star (hardly 2)

Not a pleasant experience. Hotel is significantly overpriced, and service is very bad.
Arrived on Sat. Asked for an iron. Reception: "no iron". Were we supposed to bring iron with us to a 4-star hotel?
Breakfast is bad. Basic cheese, uninspiring ham. No juice - juice drinks taste like chemicals. On top of that, very small breakfast hall, difficult to find spare places (a couple, we had to sit at diferent tables!).
Staff never smiles. Nor speaks English.
Everything is overpriced. Tea in the evening? - 4 euros. An hour of Internet? - 10 euros. This services are for free in all hotels that care about customers.
Room was horrible for a 4-star. It was not much bigger than a bed. Aic conditioning is loud. TV has a single English language channel. Furniture is old and ugly.
Overall, as said before, we have a very unplesant stay, and will try to avoid Una hotels in the future.

A good 2 star hotel (maybe a generous 3 star)

A lot of hotels in Italy are overrated, and this is one of them.
Staff were nice, and breakfast buffett, though not incredible, was fine.
The room was unbelievably small and worn out. You barely had room to walk from the side of the queen bed to the wall, on both sides. We got a corner room close to the fire exit that I believe is a little smaller than most rooms. At least, it had nothing to do with the pictures you can find in internet. We complained, but weren't allowed to change.
Only one lift was working during our weekend stay, and we had to walk up and down several times. The bathroom was really tiny, and you couldn't even close the shower door, flodding everything every time you showered. The bed was ok, but the blanquet looked old and so worn out it seemed dirty.
Surprisingly, they had complimentary slippers in the room (only one pair though, thank god my wife brought hers along). Location is not great, about 5 minutes from the metro that will take you to the center in a couple of stops. About ten minutes by taxi. We only paid 86 eur per night on the hotel website, and you only get what you pay for. We used it just to sleep while visiting the city (shopping ), and it served its purpose, though I wouldn't pay more than that. It is defenetly not more than a very good 2 star hotel, maybe a generous
3 star. Don't go there if you plan to stay in the hotel more than necessary, if you need to get back to the hotel more than once per day or if you have 3-4 star expectations by international standards.

Un buon due stelle (forse, a essere generosi, un tre stelle)

Un sacco di alberghi italiani vengono sopravvalutati, e questo ne è un buon esempio. Il personale era molto gentile e il buffet della colazione, sebbene non fosse divino, era soddisfacente.
La camera era incredibilmente piccola e consunta. C’era appena spazio per muoversi tra entrambi i lati del letto matrimoniale al muro. Ci hanno dato una camera d’angolo, la quale credo fosse più piccola di quasi tutte le altre, vicino all’uscita di sicurezza. Per lo meno non aveva niente a che vedere con le foto che si vedono su internet. Abbiamo reclamato, ma non ci hanno fatto cambiare.
Siamo rimasti per un fine settimana e durante quel periodo c’era solo un ascensore funzionante, così siamo dovuti andare su e giù per le scale diverse volte. Il bagno era veramente piccolo e non si poteva neanche chiudere la porta della doccia, allagando tutto ogni volta che aprivi l’acqua. Il letto era passabile, ma la coperta era vecchia e così consunta da sembrare sporca.
Inaspettatamente, in camera c’erano delle pantofole in omaggio, ma solo un paio (grazie al cielo mia moglie si era portata le sue).
L’ubicazione non è fantastica: si trova a cinque minuti dalla metro che vi porterà in centro in un paio di fermate. Ci vogliono circa 10 minuti se andate in taxi.
Prenotando sul sito web dell’albergo abbiamo pagato solo €86 a notte e devo dire che quello che abbiamo ricevuto era commensurato a quanto abbiamo speso. Siamo rimasti in albergo solo per dormire mentre visitavamo la città (shopping) per cui ha soddisfatto le nostre necessità, ma non vorrei dover pagare un centesimo di più. Certamente non è più di un ottimo due stelle, o forse, ad essere generosi, un tre stelle. Non andateci se avete in programma di starci più dello stretto necessario, se dovete tornarci più di una volta al giorno o se vi aspettate un albergo che verrebbe riconosciuto internazionalmente come un 3 o un 4 stelle.
