Pros:

La posizione è eccezionale perché ogni attrazione di Palermo si raggiunge a piedi in poco tempo. Di sera , soprattutto nei giorni festivi, c'è da stare un po' in guardia.
Famiglia proprietaria molto accogliente e disponibile x accomodare richieste e dare indicazioni

Cons:

Struttura in pieno cantiere di ristrutturazione. Sicuramente quando sarà finito verrà un gran bel lavoro, ma durante il nostro soggiorno c'erano in giro materiali, masserizie e rumori di cantiere.

Pros:

Osoby obsługujące miłe. Targ Ballaro za rogiem

Cons:

Zdjęcia mocno nieaktualne - na zewnatrz i również wewnątrz. Budynek w remoncie wewnątrz. Wszystko oklejone kartonami lub przykryte materiałem. W pokoju klima/ogrzewanie nie działa. Brak prześcieradeł. Uciekliśmy z tego miejsca po 10 min. Przechodząc niedaleko w ciągu dnia było słuchać odgłosy wiercenia i kucia.

Hotel modesto en el centro
Pros:

El personal: muy amable y atento a las necesidades. Mi vuelo se retrasó y llegué tardísimo pero no hubo problema por parte del Hotel Cortese. Buena relación calidad-precio.

Cons:

El aspecto del barrio y que en la habitación no llegara el wifi

Hôtel central, accueil très apprécié.
Pros:

Emplacement central, personnel présent et attentif à nos demandes. Bon rapport qualité/prix.

Cons:

La proximité du marché Ballaro rend la chambre un peu bruyante au petit matin.

Prima uitvalsbasis voor Palermo
Pros:

Prettig hotel om te verblijven in de oude stad van Palermo. Alles is op loopafstand.

Cons:

Op zondagavond is het erg stil op straat je voelt je dan minder veilig in het donker. De andere dagen is er veel meer open. Op zondag veel gesloten.
