Reviews and Ratings
The hotel is ideally situated in the historic part of Palermo, close to major sights. The rooms, though small and lacking mirrors, are nevertheless comfortable and adequate, albeit with occasional sewage odors. The friendly and helpful service made our stay enjoyable, even with some noise from the main road. The dining options were a pleasant surprise, offering a variety of sweet products. The location gets a solid rating for its proximity to tourist spots and charming surroundings.
The hotel had shabby and extremely cheaply furnished rooms, but they were relatively clean and somewhat comfortable. They would benefit from a modern refurbishment, especially the bathroom/shower. The staff were friendly and nice, but the location, while excellent, was surrounded by derelict buildings.
My stay at the hotel was overall pleasant. The rooms were clean and presented no issues for me. However, the double room I stayed in was a bit dark and poky without a balcony. The service was friendly and accommodating, though some staff had a poor grasp of English. The location was perfect for exploring Palermo, being close to major attractions and bustling areas. The dining experience was just adequate, and the facilities were satisfactory.
I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The rooms were initially comfortable but had issues we couldn't overlook, leading us to cut our stay short. The Deluxe room had a slight advantage with a small balcony, although the overall condition of the hotel was disappointing. The water pressure and temperature were lacking, and cleanliness was a concern. The location was convenient for exploring the city, but some aspects left much to be desired.
My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms were not up to par with dark lighting, a leaking shower, and a noticeable urine smell, making it quite disappointing overall. On the bright side, the service was impeccable with helpful and friendly staff guiding me to local attractions and restaurants. The central location, close to major sites and transportation, was a definite plus, although some parts seemed distant from key tourist spots. The dining options were lacking variety and quality, falling short of expectations. However, the facilities added some value to the stay, but not without room for improvement.
