Bonne situation, hôte aimable, attention ZTL.

Hôtel très bien situé pour visiter Palerme. Tout ce fait à pied. Cependant, ATTENTION, si vous êtes en voiture, l'hôtel se trouve en ZTL et il est très difficile de trouver une place. Chambre spacieuse, propre. Petit déjeuné standard. L'hôte est aimable, fait en sorte de répondre à vos questions malgré des difficultés de communication (il parle en majorité italien) mais nous nous sommes très bien compris :)

Décevant

Pont positif : la localisation , proche du centre historique.le Capuccino ! Points négatifs : mauvaise signalétique, l'accueil bâclé, pas de parking contrairement à l'annonce, sinon payant en rue, il a fallu téléphoner pour avoir un petit déj à 8h45, non respect des heures de service, et pas assez de place pour tons les hôtes .

bueno para jovenes

en general fue bueno, muy bien ubicado, lo unico habiamos pedido tres camas separadas con baño privado, y nos dieron una habitacion con cama matrimonial y una pequeña, y si bien el baño era privado, estaba fuera de la habitacion a 5 mts, eso no lo aclaraban en el aviso de Hoteles .com, como tampoco, que habia que subir una gran escalera de 2 pisos, con las valijas , sin nadie que ayudara, para jovenes sin casi equipaje , esta bien , no para nosotras, la ubicacion buena, limpio desayuno solo dulce y frutas , nada salado

Personale giovane accoglienza perfetta

Personale gentile posizione comoda sia per la stazione centrale che per una visita al centro città infatti in pochissimo tempo e senza utilizzo di mezzi siamo riusciti a visitare i 4 canti, la piazza della vergogna, la cattedrale, la chiesa di San Giuseppe, il mercato di Ballarò ed i vari negozi tipici che si incontrano. Anche alla nostra partenza siano stati accompagnati alla stazione. Certamente alla nostra prossima visita ci ritorneremo.

Lo consiglio

B&B ben collocato nel centro di Palermo, comodo per visitare la città. Stanza pulita e spaziosa, molto silenziosa la notte, possibilità di parcheggiare l'auto in una stradina laterale. Se dovessi tornare a Palermo tornerei qui.

Soggiorno breve a Palermo

Camera confortevole, proprietari gentilissimi e disponibili come d'altro canto sono tutti i siciliani. La posizione dell'hotel è centrale e si raggiungono facilmente tutti i luoghi d’interesse. Purtroppo Palermo è sporca, piena d’immondizia (peggio di Roma che non brilla certo per efficienza) e questo dispiace perché è una città bellissima.
