Mmm, not bad.
I was actually hoping for a Starwood property near Malpensa for this summer, since I'll be leaving from there. I had to spend a few ICT points for a recently opened Holiday Inn Express. Anyway, back on topic.

Seems it will be a nice property. To be absolutely frank I don't expect much from a Malpensa-located hotel, since it's basically:
- very far from Milan (30+ miles)
- located far from main businesses (as opposed to, let's say, Rome Fiumicino airport area).

However, I have to say that having the airport within walking distance is definitely a nice plus, because by staying in other properties (as the holiday inn beforementioned) you're basically restricted to take a taxi due to the absence of sidewalks.. and spending 12 euros for half a mile, THAT bothers me.
