This B&B is lovely. The bed is clean and comfortable and the bathroom is clean. The location is quiet and convenient for walking to the seaport and to many restaurants. The owner Emanuela is wonderful to work with, from booking to check-in. She even delivered fresh bath towels to our room one evening after I had a communication error with the non-English-speaking housekeeper that morning. We will definitely stay here again next time we visit Palermo!

I booked one night to stay with my husband. Breakfast was supposed to be included but there was none. Just a coffee maker. The location was good, the room was clean comfortable and charming. Everything we needed. It would have been great if it had toilet paper! We found an incomplete roll and the towels although clean, were old and hand size. I think having plushy bath towels would have make a big difference. Access to the property was easy. A call was required ahead of time since this is not a hotel, but a room to enter with a passcode. One great feature if traveling with a suitcase, the building has an elevator. Overall a great choice except for those “details” easily fixable

Great location however each room has its own hot water tank so it will run out if the first person isn’t careful. Only two small shampoo provided and rooms cleaned every two days so you will probably need to buy some shampoo out. Lady comes in to provide toast, coffee and yogurt.

Cute accommodation and lovely restaurants

Accommodate is cute; not a hotel, but rather an apartment of two rooms and a breakfast room. Our room had coffee machine and breakfast facilities which was nice. Parking was in the street, which was a little challenging give that the area is very busy with restaurants - but 20euros and local help, we found a space. 10 minutes from the GNV arrivals, it was nice and close and not too far to drive from the port to the hotel in the dark ;-) Palermo driving in the dark is not so much fun!

Excellent location, restaurants and cafes nearby. Elevator was an excellent feature considering all our luggage. Wifi was reliable. Room view was meh but we didn’t care (had a garden view). Bed was big and comfortable, pillows flat but tolerable. Could have used hand soap in bathroom. Coffee machine in room but no coffee pods (though you could just get it from the kitchen downstairs). Excellent security features. Owner was gracious and quick to respond. Pictures are pretty accurate.

Ottima struttura

Struttura moderna nel cuore di Palermo e tuttavia lontana dal caos. Camera ampia, letto confortevole, bagno anch'esso ampio. Pulizia impeccabile. La colazione è a base di prodotti locali di ottima qualità (se anziché succo di frutta confezionato fosse offerto, visto che siamo in Sicilia,del succo di arancia fresco sarebbe veramente perfetto). un piccolo appunto riguarda la mancanza di uno specchio a figura intera nella camera e la mancanza in stanza di qualche informazione in più riguardo la struttura (cose basiche tipo la password del wi-fi, la colazione etc) e magari anche una lista di suggerimenti su dove mangiare o bere qualcosa in zona per chi, arrivando tardi la sera, rischia di sentirsi nu poco sperso. Va però detto che la proprietaria è disponibilissima e risponde immediatamente e con grande cortesia a ogni richiesta. Sicuramente ci tornerei e lo consiglierei a chi deve soggiornare a Palermo.
