Guest Reviews
- Viktar (6/5): Местный калорит - Удобное месторасположение Шум от стройки и соседей на первом этаже
- Meier (5/5): - Bequemes Bett, ziemlich ruhig, zentral. Kalte Dusche ( Wasser lauwarm bis kalt), nicht sauber genug, besonders Geschirr. Unangenehmer Geruch im Wohnbereich. Ziemlich alte Möbel.
- Chia hui (7/5): - 地點
- Anamaria (9/5): -
- Carla (8/5): Très agréable séjour - Nous avons était très bien accueilli par l’hôte, qui nous a très gentiment laissé accéder à l’appartement bien plus tôt. L’appartement était très bien équipé et très propre, proche de tous les lieux de visite. Sachez qu’en Sicile beaucoup d’appartements sont qu’avec du simple vitrage donc ne soyez pas surpris du bruit.
- zhi fang (10/5): - 去市场很近。厨房好用。
- Patryk (10/5): - Great location and excellent communication with the host. Fully equipped apartment.
- Antonio (9/5): Weekend a Palermo - Posizione strategica vicino alla stazione e al mercato di Ballarò, zona servita e ben collegata. Una bella casa con camera e sala spaziose. Letto comodo. Un ottimo punto di partenza per visitare Palermo. Il proprietario è gentile e ci ha dato ottimi consigli. Niente da segnalare
- Benny Petersen (8/5): - Sengen var lidt hård. En topmadras kunne have hjulpet.
- Robroy (10/5): - Super miejsce blisko wszystkiego jest winda i miły wlasciciel
- Duncan (9/5): -
- miriam (10/5): -
- xiaoming (9/5): 设施齐全,舒适便利 - 室内设施齐全,干净整洁,距离火车站,超市,景点不远,方便出行。
- Pablo (9/5): -
- Roberto (10/5): Confortable - La predisposición de Frncesco y la.ubicación Nada
- Kamil (10/5): - Wszystko było jak najbardziej zgodne z ofertą. Gospodarz bardzo pomocny. Rewelacja! Mały TV ;-)
- ATHANASIA (5/5): -
- Kharlamova (10/5): Все было замечательно - Довольно просторная квартира с небольшой кухней, где есть все необходимое. Мы смогли там приготовить блюда для нового года. Хозяин очень отзывчивый и гостеприимный, прогрел квартиру кондиционерами перед нашим приездом, это было очень мило. Все было очень чисто. Отличное расположение, 5 минут до вокзала, 10 минут до главной улицы. Вокруг много ресторанов, очень близко лидл. Большое спасибо! И простите за не помытую ложку и вилку, я напутала время и нам пришлось убегать на вокзал, не успели прибраться до конца.
- Nataliia (10/5): - Excellent apartment! Very warm (we spent the New Year's holidays there). Large bedroom, comfortable beds. Three balconies. Large, cozy living room. Wonderful kitchen. Thanks to Francesco for his care!
- David (10/5): -
- Anna (9/5): Remek elhelyezkedésű, jól felszerelt lakás - A szállás elhelyezkedése nekem tökéletes volt. Számomra egészségügyi okokból fontos szempont, hogy a lakás lifttel megközelíthető legyen, ne legyenek lépcsők a lift előtt sem.
A konyha felszereltsége (bár nekem most nem volt szükségem rá), remek. Kellemetlen meglepetés volt számomra, hogy csak a foglalás után tudtam meg, a késői bejelentkezés jelentős pluszköltséggel jár.
A hangszigetelés nem túl jó a lakásban, este sokáig nem tudtam elaludni a zajos, valószínűleg felettem lakó lakóktól.
- Gayle (8/5): - Location was excellent especially arriving by train. The host was very responsive to our questions and allowed us to drop our bags off early. Nice big apartment for Sicily. Had trouble with the hot water
- shumei (8/5): -
- Barbara (9/5): -
- LUIGI (10/5): - Appartamento ben curato, pulito, fornito di tutto il necessario. Ottima posizione, vicino al centro storico e alla stazione centrale. Vicolo rumoroso, nonostante il doppio vetro alle finestre.

- Cesar (9/5): Repetiria estancia - Todo lo necesario para mi estancia. Buena comunicación y facilidades a la hora del checkin El agua caliente tardaba mucho en salir y no duraba mucho.
- Zhangping (7/5): - Die Lage zum Bahnhof war super! Die Fenster sind nicht gedämmt. Es ist durchgehend sehr laut...
- Johannes (9/5): - Alles in Ordnung, Francesco ist sehr zuvorkommend.
- Zeng (10/5): L'esperienza di alloggio è stata fantastica! Francesco ci ha anche consigliato alcuni ristoranti buoni ed economici! - very good! Ci stiamo bene qua! Niente
- manuela (6/5): - Molto vicini a tutti i punti di interesse, con una posizione facile da raggiungere. Il proprietario è gentile e molto disponibile, ha fornito tutte le informazioni necessarie su come muoversi a Palermo. Supermercato, negozi e ristoranti sono tutti nelle vicinanze, rendendo il soggiorno comodo e piacevole. Appartamento pulito, ma con un leggero odore di muffa presente all’interno.
- Juan (10/5): Excelente - El estado del apartamento la decoración y el cuidado de los detalles
La hubicasion inmejorable
Volvería sin pensarlo Nada. Todo excelente
- Marilena (9/5): - Posizione ottima per bus treni e per girare Palermo
- Yevgenia (10/5): -
- Chiara (8/5): -
- Dora Roccaforte (8/5): - Appartamento spazioso, pulito e ben equipaggiato. Proprietario disponibile e gentile! Vicolo molto rumoroso, non è colpa certo del b&b, ma l'appartamento non è isolato molto bene dai suoni esterni.
- LUCA (10/5): - Tutto perfetto appartamento pulito completo di tutto non mancava niente a due passi dal centro storico e dalla stazzione principale il propetario gentilissimo per qualsiasi richiesta.ci torero sicuramente.
- Fatima (8/5): -
- Gediminas (10/5): Exceptional Hospitality - We really enjoyed the apartment, we were greeted by the host who made a super informative apartment tour. The location was just a minute walk from all the busy part of the city. Very happy with the choice.
- Petrovic (9/5): Superb -
- Darlene (10/5): Perfect location - The apartment was clean and had everything we required for staying an extended period of time. We were able to explore a large part of Palermo on foot and made several day trips to other parts of Sicily. Francesco is very accessible through Whatsapp and made it clear if we needed anything he was there to help. We were close to the Palermo Centrale, the main bus station, local bus route, grocery store, dining, and the historic center. Honestly we were sad to leave. Love Palermo and love our experience staying here. Nothing.
- Lorna (10/5): Exceptional - Personal greeting and explanation of facilities. Very nice decor and comfortable accomodation, handy for the railway station. Nothing to dislike
- Calogero (9/5): Superb -
- John (7/5): Excellent location and clean secure property let down by limited kitchen functionality. - The property is located in the old town close to all facilities; Bus and Railway Station (5 min. walk), restaurants, street markets, supermarket close by, and main tourist attractions within the city, etc. The apartment is accessed via a locked communal door and on the third floor either by stairs or elevator. The door to the apartment has a high quality lock and security was not an issue. The apartment was clean and had most of the facilities I would have expected including spare bedding, towels and a washing machine. I stayed in the apartment for 4 weeks and wanted to be able to prepare food rather than eat out all the time. The kitchen area comprised a breakfast bar and worktop area and cupboards that provided: A space restricted 2 burner gas hob, small microwave oven, fridge, sink and draining board. I was disappointed that their was no conventional oven which restricted the meals that I could prepare, eg Not able to roast meat and cook fish, bake, heat up anything (pizza}. Cooking pots and pans were provided but could have been presented better (condition, cleanliness and variety). Cutlery and crockery was adequate but all the preparation knives were blunt and unusable. I bought a cooks knife that was confiscated at the airport as I had only carry on luggage.
- Brenda (10/5): Really great stay in the heart of historical Palermo- highly recommend! - This is a proper apartment with bedroom & kitchen separate from the living space. It was very clean and nicely decorated- lots of natural light as well. The location was perfect- right in the heart of the historic area, close to Ballaro market, less than 10 minutes from the central train and bus terminal. The building & apartment were very secure & quiet. The bed was really comfortable in a large bedroom- 2 bedside tables is a bonus! The host was excellent to communicate with. He doesn’t speak any English but he was very thorough in his orientation of the apartment and we understood completely. Nothing- it was super nice.
- Tom (8/5): The apartment was very clean the location is very good close to the train station - Perfect Everything was nice
- Aleksandra (9/5): Superb - Great location, Lidl nearby, very close to main station
- Diane (10/5): Great place ! - Great apartment with a nice balcony The street of the place is not really safe during the night (we saw a lot of people who wandered)) but we didn’t have any issues.
The apartment itself was a little bit dark
- Neil (10/5): Loved everything! - We absolutely loved our stay at Al Vocolo Palermo! Francesco met us for checkin & was friendly & efficient. Though it initially looks like a sketchy neighbourhood, we didn’t feel nervous at all & once you get into the apartment on the second floor it’s really lovely! The location is perfect - so close to everything. The apartment is large, nicely furnished & decorated & has everything you could need. It is reasonably priced, very clean with new linen & towels. There are 3 choices for coffee - a pod machine with pods, Italian coffee maker & kettle. The kitchen is so well equipped which is a rarity. Comfortable bed, window/door shutters, good wifi. We really enjoyed sitting on our own balcony. We highly recommend this apartment & would definitely stay here again. Only problem with noise was loud music from another apartment on Sunday night but it stopped about 10.30pm. Saturday night was amazingly quiet! No complaints - we loved everything!
- Mircea (10/5): Exceptional - Enough space, good wi-fi, very close to….everything. We were a little worried about the neighbourhood in the beginning, but it was ok.
- Maria (8/5): Very good -
- Juan (9/5): Superb -
- Maria (8/5): Very good - Clean and very nicely decorated flat with good facilities. Liked the several balconies and the atmosphere. Quite a bit of noise from neighbours and rhe street. But I also liked the lively neighbourhood.
- Bárak71 (9/5): Superb - Great location, nice flat, everything is in walking distance (food, café, railway, sightseeing etc.) all sufficient. The neigborough seems to be louder and not safe for the first time. But it is all right. It is calmer part of the cite center - it's just Palermo!
- Matt (10/5): Perfect location right in the middle of old town. - Great location and helpful, friendly host. But noisy at night due to people in the alley outside our window.
- Tornike (10/5): Great stay in the heart of Palermo! - The flat is located in the heart of Palermo, very central yet convenient location close to the central station and old town. Everything you need is within walking distance. Apartment is clean and stylish. Host is extrimely nice!
- Stephanie (9/5): Excellent host, plenty of room, great location to walk to most of the historic sites. Highly recommended. - Excellent facilities, they even had a cutting board in the kitchen which was great! The bed was a bit too low for my arthritic knees.
- Mario (10/5): Exceptional - Al Vicolo merits its high scores, given its location for accesing transport and Palermo sights. The unit has a good kitchen with about anything else you might need. The apartment is comfortable, inviting, well-paid out, and seemed spacious for one, and maybe two persons.
Some reviews raised concerns about the night time noise and a few hinted about safety issues. I was there five nights walking a lot and returning about 2200. I had no problems and felt safe. Excessive noise is not a prevailing characteristic of the property. It was quiet and peaceful as I listened to Alexa playing favorite songs.
The evening and night noise issues, mentioned in some reviews, did occur during my winter stay with the windows closed. The infrequent sporatic disturbing night time shouting noise came from people walking or lingering on Via Maqueda. Again....., Al Vicolo was a quiet place during my long stay.
Suggest the use ear plugs. I did not do so the first night and was awakened two or three times. I used them for my remaining four nights, and heard nothing.
Have attached images of the lights illuminating from Al Vicolo's door down Vicolo Gaffi to its intersection with Via Maquenda. The area is well-light and may have security cameras as well, if one can believe the signage. By far, Al Vicolo's positives outweigh any small negatives.
- Valeriya (9/5): Superb - This apart is good! You can find everything for a comfortable stay! You can go so easy to shop, cafe, train station - 5 min. All the city's attractions are nearby.
- Marvin (7/5): Good -
- Alexander (10/5): A cozy comfortable place near the Central Station and all the places of interest. Optimal - Very good location, close to the center and the market yet still at a calm place. So we had a good sleep. It's spacious and clean, kitchen is well equipped. Second floor but there's an elevator. Nothing to bother, everything was perfect
- Hsiu (9/5): Superb -
- James (9/5): clean and spacious, good amenities, hot shower. - good location , handy for train station and Four Corners. the locals were a bit noisy on the friday night.
- Novak (9/5): It was nice apartment. - The apartment is really nice, clean and has everything you need. The owner was super friendly, he gave us good tips for food, and excellent tips for a bar with good wine. Under the apartment is fast food, kebab and, as a pregnant woman, it was really bothering me, because of the smell.
- Heleen (10/5): Exceptional - Very complete, clean, spacious appartement
- Josetta (10/5): Exceptional - great spot and reasonable price, the host was very easy to deal with over WhatsApp but only spoke a little bit of English in person but still gave all the necessary instructions. the shutters on the windows are blackout so it’s really nice and dark to sleep mattress was a bit thin so not super comfortable
- Anonymous (10/5): Exceptional -
- Rolandas (10/5): It completely met our expectations 😀😀 - Convenient location. Friendly staff. Cozy and safe apartments
- Maria (10/5): Exceptional - The Property is close to all main attractions, is extremely clean, very spacious and has everything you need for your stay. Francesco was so helpful and responsive with everything we needed. I highly recommend.

- Ana (9/5): Superb - The apartment was comfortable and clean, and had an excellent location.
Just make sure to check the booking messages for important check-in informations.
- Vaiva (8/5): Spacious apartment in the city centre - Friendly and helpful host. The apartment is spacious and is located in the city centre near the train/bus station. The bed was very comfortable! The noise from the main street can reach the apartment at times so earplugs were helpful at night.
- Dainius (10/5): Exceptional - Very good place, city center, good and helpful host.
- Sylwia (7/5): Good - Spacious apartment, very comfortable bed, good location, close to the train station. In winter it was cold but in summer it's probably nice and chill. It's possible to heat up the living room/kitchen with AC but the bedroom just stays cold.
- Frank (10/5): Exceptional -
- Mate (8/5): Very near to everything - Apartment is spacious and very near to the central train station and city center. Owner offered nice selection of teas and capsules for Dolce Gusto coffee machine. Apartment could've been cleaner and the neighbourghs are fairly loud and doing loud construction work at 3 am on Monday(?) - that has nothing to do with the owner.

- Jane (8/5): Very good -

- Jordana (10/5): Exceptional -
- Aldin (10/5): be a part of Palermo, at least for a short time - The apartment is in the very center of the city, so you can have the feeling that you are one of the residents of Palermo. Still far enough away from the main street for a quiet and pleasant vacation. The building has an elevator and the apartment has everything you need for a pleasant stay. The host is excellent and very accommodating, all in all praise and recommendations.
- Alex (9/5): Superb -
