BIEN
Pros:

C'est un ancien hôtel donc trois étage sans ascenseur. Mais très bien situé pour tout visiter à pieds. Parking fermé à proximité. De nombreux petits restaurant aux alentours.

Cons:

Musique toute la nuit de l'hôtel voisin ou d'ailleurs. Réponse le matin nous aurions dû descendre !

A good short stay in Palermo
Pros:

The hotel is in a great location. Very close to the very heart of Palermo but on a quiet street. The staff are very good and helpful. I liked the hotel a lot. It is old but has character. I felt very safe and comfortable as a solo female traveller. The breakfast was very adequate.

Cons:

Nothing

Klein maar fijne locatie
Pros:

De straat uit en je was in het centrum.

Cons:

Erg kleine kamer. Als je iets breder bent pas je niet in de douchecabine. De verf liet los van de muren. De wc wilde amper doorspoelen. De kamer was een vierkante meter met twee bedden. Erg klein, maar als je niet breed bent en er alleen wilt slapen, prima.
