The range goes from the 15 sqm Small Single Room, designed for solo travellers, to 20 sqm double solutions with single beds or a large double bed.

Location & what to see

Villa Life is located in San Donato Milanese, a town on the south-eastern outskirts of Milan, in a residential area characterised by quiet streets, small neighbourhood venues and the historic presence of the Eni headquarters, which has made the area a business hub as well as a residential one. In the immediate surroundings there are various bars, cafés and neighbourhood restaurants, such as Caffetteria al Varco and Certosa Caffè, both just a few hundred metres from the property, ideal for breakfast or a quick lunch.
