Pros:

The staff was friendly and helpful, especially the lady for the breakfast service. After 2 days we could change the room because the first one was next to the elevator and we could hear it all the time. The second one was a lot better. The location is good, as everything is in walking distance which is great in Palermo.

Cons:

There is a lot of noise on the streets especially at the weekends with extremely loud music. But during the week it is quite ok.

If you are planning a trip to Palermo, look for another hotel.
Pros:

Only the staff, especially the lady working at the entrance, are very friendly and helpful. I hope she can continue her career in a better place.

Cons:

An old hotel in a bad neighborhood. The streets around the hotel are full of garbage. Due to security concerns, the entrance door is only opened when you ring the doorbell. The rooms are very small. Everything, including breakfast, is minimal. Only two things are excessive. First, the price. It definitely doesn't deserve that much money. Second, the noise. Every night, the locals party until very late in the square opposite the hotel with loud sound systems from their cars. If you go on a weekend, they set up special sound systems producing thousands of watts of noise, keeping the whole neighborhood awake until morning. The hotel staff are aware of this but don't issue any warnings. They only silently admit they know by leaving silicone earplugs in the room.

Pros:

Hotel situato nel vecchio borgo di Palermo a 15 minuti a piedi da via Maqueda.
Il quartiere in cui è situato è popolare e purtroppo non curato.
L'hotel appare datato ed avrebbe bisogno di una manutenzione dei materiali presenti nelle stanze( parquet da levigare e marmi da lucidare nei bagni)
La colazione è buona, ma non offre prodotti tipici siciliani.
Il personale è cortese e gentile.

Cons:

L'unico elemento negativo è l'insonorizzazione sia degli infissi( la mia camera situata al 5° piano si affaccia sull'ingresso dove la sera si ritrovano i ragazzi con i motorini e non dico altro) sia delle pareti interne ( sentivo i rumori del bagno provenienti dalla stanza accanto).

Pros:

Everything fine except NOISE

Cons:

Very noisy hotel, especially during weekends. 10m from hotel is night club, so each Friday & Saturday night is extreme noise inside hotel.

Hôtel agréable au coeur d'un quartier populaire et vivant
Pros:

Belles chambres spacieuses avec une décoration soignée, service agréable (renseignements, adaptation, peut poster les cartes postales...) et localisation pratique

Cons:

Si l'hôtel n'y peut strictement rien, le quartier est vraiment très bruyant (en lien avec la vie nocturne fort sympathique du quartier mais aussi avec d'autres passages)
