A fine facility, until you realize how it values its residents
>
> There is a lot to like at Tribera Milan. The building is new and well kept, the gym, study rooms and rooftop are genuinely good, and the staff we dealt with were courteous throughout. On facilities alone, this would be an easy recommendation.
>
> The problem is how the residence values the people who trust it first. We booked our son's room in early July, before he had even seen Milan, at EUR 1,019 a month for a room in a six-person shared flat. By October, new residents were being offered the same room for EUR 789 and a Studio for EUR 899. When we asked for the early bookers to be treated no worse than the newcomers, the answer, repeated politely several times, was that nothing could be done.
>
> Think about what that means in daily life. You share the same kitchen, the same corridor, the same kind of room as your neighbour, yet every month EUR 230 more leaves your pocket than his. Your only mistake was to trust the residence enough to book early. And you are reminded of it every morning when you say good morning to him.
>
> Pricing is a business decision, and so are its mistakes. When a new residence overestimates demand, it is the management's miscalculation to absorb, not something to quietly pass on to students who committed early and in good faith. Being told, in effect, to accept it and move on leaves you feeling less like a valued resident and more like a convenient source of revenue.

> If you are considering Tribera, enjoy the facilities, but ask one question before you sign: will I end up paying more than the people who book after me? We did.

> Think twice and share.
