Driving to Ortisei from Milan does google maps work?

It depends. Google Maps works well in Italy, but you should prepare for not having a cell phone signal. Google Maps relies on a GPS signal and a map database. The base map can reach your phone from pre-loaded storage on your phone or from a real time cell phone or wifi signal. You should download a Google map of the area for off-line use when you have a wifi connection and then you won't need a cell phone connection at all (except you'll not have real-time traffic info).

I prefer Waze, it's much more current with road conditions.

The directions are ok, but don't trust the driving time estimates. Always budget more time.
