The alternative of staying in Milan and getting up VERY early to get to Malpensa for an AM flight is not at all attractive. There is another Marriott brand alternative @ MXP - the Moxy - and it is cheaper but requires taking a bus to get to the terminal. The Sheraton is by far the best choice.

During the walk make sure to stop and see the words inscribed on the walkway.

“tutti i passi che ho fatto nella mia vita mi hanno portato qui, ora”
“every step I have taken in my life has led me here, now,”
