Pros:

A modest comfortable hotel. Very clean. Very good breakfast

Cons:

I would expect drinking water to be provided every day. A water fountain in foyer would have been welcome after a very hot day walking in the city

Pros:

Στην υποδοχή οταν φτασαμε μας δώσανε κάποιες πληροφορίες και προτάσεις για την πόλη κατι το οποίο ηταν πολυ ευγενικό και βοηθητικό. Το δωμάτιο ηταν αρκετά ευρύχωρο και καθαρο. Το πρωινό ηταν μια χαρα αν και οι επιλογές ηταν περιορισμένες.

Cons:

Στο μπαλκόνι δεν υπήρχε ούτε μια καρέκλα να καθίσεις ή έστω κατι να απλώσεις να στεγνώσει μια πετσέτα. Επίσης η τηλεόραση δεν εχει τις λειτουργίες μιας smart TV καθως δεν σου επιτρέπει να συνδεθείς σε καποια εφαρμογή streaming, επομένως η μονη σου επιλογή ειναι τα τοπικά κανάλια. Γενικά και στον χωρο και απο το προσωπικό υπήρχε μια κρύα αίσθηση και δεν ένοιωσα οικία και άνετα.

Pros:

The ground floor

Cons:

The rooms are sad, there is really nothing nice in them. I booked a taxi through the hotel, but it wasn't there when I arrived. Since it was very late at night, it was a very bad experience.

Boa opção
Pros:

Pequeno almoço era bastante aceitável (nada de extraordinário mas “ok”);
Localização boa (dava para ir a pé ao centro de Palermo)

Cons:

O elevador era assustador - usei uma vez e nunca mais.
