Guest Reviews
- Loris Maria (5/5): - Il Bar dove fare la colazione
- Anna (8/5): - Tutto perfetto, stanze un po’ buie, ma letti comodi e confortevole. Torneremo.
- Megan (8/5): -
- Mikhail (3/5): - Bus and train stations, the walking area of the down town is easily accesible on foot.
The host is there--to let you in and make sure the tourist tax of Palermo is collected from you.
The host shows interest in comfort of guests, which is by itself good,
if you don't look at the negatives sides: You are given only a body towel, no face towel. Not quite the best practice.
The bed is pretty spartan: blanket lacks a proper cover, with barely a sheet of textile separating you from the who-knows-by-how-many-guests-used blanket.
The kitchen is not private. It is not explicitly stated in the ad and was quite a surprise.
The window opens up into literally a well inside a 6-storey building with an outstanding view on sewage pipes--see the picture. This very gloomy and drab space extends into your room which is ironically called ''Geya'' and makes it even more uncomfortable.
- Julia (10/5): - GiusepDie Wohnung liegt in der Nähe des Bahnhofs, fast in der Mitte, neben der Hauptstraße, Joseppe war freundlich und hat alle Fragen beantwortet, es wurde täglich geputzt (ich bin sehr dankbar).
Ich empfehle diese Unterkunft besonders für diejenigen, die nicht viel Zeit haben, die Stadt zu erkunden
- Schmuck (8/5): -
- Cathal (10/5): Great accommodation, great location, great host. - Very close to Palermo Centrale station, shops, cafes etc. The property itself was incredibly clean, spacious, modern. Lots of effort is clearly made to create a welcoming atmosphere for guests and there’s a nice communal area and kitchen available. The street and the building felt very safe. Giuseppe the owner gave clear and helpful instructions in terms of building access and was very available.
- Mario (6/5): -
- Aleksandr (3/5): - It is possible to check in without staff Noise. The people upstairs make noise late into the night — stomping, music, and loud laughter. The elevator is also very loud; you can hear it as if it were inside the room, and the pipes make noise as well. Overall, if you need a good night's sleep, it’s better to look for another place.
Smell of mould
- Damian (10/5): -
- Laura (8/5): - Il letto scomodo
- Andres Alberto (9/5): - La atención , la habitación cómoda fácil acceso a todo centro turistico Deberían avisarle a la persona del piso de arriba q a ciertas horas deje de mover muebles y caminar fuerte descalzo parecía a propósito golpeando con los talones no dejando descansar
- Tapastau (9/5): -
- Ana Maria (9/5): Una buena experiencia en Palermo - La cordialidad del anfitrión quien siempre estuvo disponible Tuvimos un pequeño problema con la electricidad pero lo pudimos resolver rápido. Recomiendo cambiar la cocina o las llaves termicas para poder usar el horno y microondas sin problema
- Kathleen (8/5): - Dark entry otherwise good, staff polite and helpful
- monic (10/5): - La gentilezza del Sig.r Giuseppe.
La vicinaza sia alla Stazione che al centro cittadino.
La pulizia nel bagno e nella stanza. Nulla.
- Richard (10/5): - Giuseppe the manager very helpful , room clean, shortwalking distance to attractions
- Midori (8/5): 利便性とコスパを重視するならおすすめです! - 中央駅から歩いて5、6分で、ホテルまでの道も駅を背にメインストリートを真っ直ぐ歩いて行くだけなので分かりやすかった。シャワーのお湯も全く問題無くて、快適に過ごせました。電子レンジもポットもあり節約する方にも向いているかなと思います バスタオル等は洗濯してはあるけど、真っ白では無かった、バスタオル類の交換が無かったのがちょっとだけ残念でした。
- Monica (6/5): - la posizione del B&B la camera non è luminosa, si affaccia su un interno stretto e buio
- Dora (9/5): - Muy bien ubicado,buena atención.
- MADDALENA (9/5): Palermo è una bella città nonostante la spazzatura! - La posizione Era una stanza un po’ buia
- MARCO (10/5): Ottima base di partenza per vedere Palermo e la Sicilia - A due passi dalla Stazione Centrale e dai quartieri storici di Palermo, camera pulita e carina con bagno molto pulito e grande doccia. Il proprietario, Giuseppe, è persona squisita e disponibilissima. Ho avuto un problema non da poco
e gentilmente si è reso disponibile immediatamente alle 22.00 circa per risolverlo. Struttura consigliata e grazie ancora a Giuseppe.
- Anna (10/5): Beautiful room in the city center of Palermo - Perfect location in the city center, with a very responsive, helpful and friendly host Everything ok :)
- Thomas (8/5): -
- PERIKLIS-MICHAIL (9/5): -
- Rustam (10/5): - I stayed for 4 nights. It's a nice and comfortable place. You get your own room, bathroom, both were very clean and they also clean the room every day. The location is also close to the railway and bus stations (around 10 minutes by walk). The city center is also nearby (also around 10 minutes). If you want to have some nightlife time the bars are also close. There is LIDL nearby if you need to buy something. I enjoyed it here and definitely recommend it
- Israel (7/5): - Está muy bien ubicado, cerca de la estación central y de la parte vieja. El b&b tiene 4 habitaciones. Las habitaciones no tienen luz natural pq son en un primer piso y dan a un patio. El desayuno es en un bar que está al lado. En la ducha cae muy poquita agua.
- Trang (8/5): - Ideal location. Room is very clean. All communication with host thru Whatsapp, quick response.
- Claudio (8/5): Ottima soluzione per vivere Palermo - Posizione ottima vicino alla stazione e al centro. Lidl a due passi e personale molto gentile Unica pecca è che non entra luce la mattina.
Tassa di soggiorno un po’ cara (4€ a testa per notte). So che non dipende da loro ovviamente però è l’unica pecca insieme alla luce la mattina
- Carmen (10/5): Ottima posizione, tutti i confort - Ottima posizione
- Tanja (8/5): perfekt für Sightseeing-Aufenthalte :) - sehr gut gelegen, Nähe zum Bahnhof, welcher uns vom und zum Flughafen gebracht hat, sämtliche Hauptsehenswürdigkeiten gut zu Fuß zu erreichen, Frühstück im Nachbar-Cafe mittels Gutschein (ein Heißgetränk + Croissant oder ähnliches erhalten), Kühlschrank in einer "Gemeinschaftsküche" nutzbar, sehr schönes eigenes Bad / WC dürfte frisch renoviert worden sein;
Check-in per What's App sehr gut funktioniert :) am ehesten der "Ausblick" auf Rohre aus dem Fenster, aber da wir nur zum Schlafen dort waren hat's uns nicht wirklich gestört, Fenster zum Lüften eher nicht geeignet :)
- Nicolas (10/5): -
- Markus (8/5): - Fantastic location a few minutes from the train station or old town. Very quiet rooms, zero street noise. The mattress and pillows were a bit uncomfortable to me. But my husband found them OK.
- Abdou fatah (8/5): - J’ai leur
- Antonio Paulo (10/5): - The room was perfect for me that was wrapping up my visit to Palermo. Giuseppe was super helpful and even gave a suggestion of local restaurant that was great.
I wanted to be closer to the train station plus the location has a lost of sites near by. There is a supermarket just less than 1/2 block on the main street and.grest coffee shops. A nice place to have a morning coffee with thr locals: Cafe Stagnitta
- Julian (10/5): - Great location right in the heart of Palermo, everything in the apartment working well. Room is fairly basic, but perfect for our needs, good bathroom, and Giuseppe is a good host who kept in touch and we felt well looked after.
- Yiannis (10/5): Exceptional - This place is only 10 minutes walk from the central bus station. We were happily surprised to see Giuseppe (the owner) was outside waiting for us. He gave a map to us with all the interesting places to visit. Our room was very quiet at night and there was a common kitchen. All sightseeings were very close, we could walk there. The area is lively with shops, restaurants, bars and monuments. Thanks to our landlord who recommended to us we attended a very nice concert at theatre Garibaldi. We recommend the place
- Thom (10/5): - Guiseppe, the host, is a very pleasant and helpful man. The property is centrally located, and close to the Central Train and Bus Stations.
- Kevin (8/5): Very good -
- Jonas (10/5): Exceptional - Comfortable bed, in the center and close to the main attractions of the city
- Pasquale (10/5): Eccezionale - Eccezionale struttura in posizione strategica per visitare la città ed essere vicini ai principali mezzi pubblici: treni e bus. Camera ampia, pulita e dotata di tutti i comfort. Proprietario, Giuseppe,, gentilissimo, discreto e molto vicino alle esigenze dei suoi clienti. Consigliato e da ritornarci
- julie anne (10/5): - Central location to all attractions,which was convenient for popping back as very limited public toilets in Palermo centre.
Very clean rooms Giuseppe always very helpful.
Can be a bit of noise from the lift being used .
- Carlos (10/5): Exceptional -
- Roberto (10/5): - Giuseppe helps all you needed
- Alessio (8/5): - Struttura pulita ed accogliente. Ottima posizione per chi vuole visitare il centro storico
- Jasmin (10/5): - The Staff was really nice and helpful. We did really enjoy the Stay in this B&B.
- Elia (9/5): Small but comfortable - Giuseppe, our host was really helpful. -
- Fahri (8/5): Very good -
- Marco (8/5): - Una base "sicura" nel quale poter sostare.
Il proprietario è gentilissimo e disponibile, cordiale e davvero pieno di premure.
Io lo consiglio per chi ha necessità di vedere Palermo e vuole avere accesso ai mezzi e al centro storico senza dissanguarsi.
- Martijn (8/5): Friendly and comfortable base camp to explore Palermo - Good value for money. Conveniently close to the railway station and historic centre. The very friendly host allowed us to arrive well before check in time. Everything we needed was there and it was both clean and quiet. The shared kitchen was a nice extra.
- Simmons (10/5): Exceptional - Facilities were excellent, lovely bedroom and bathroom. Maybe it could use something like cups to drink from while in the room.
- Midhill (9/5): Satisfied. - Good location & clean room. More convenient access to this accommodation.
- Vivian (7/5): Nice - Very early check in time available. The host was very friendly and helpful. Room was clean and the window has an anti mosquitoes net! Daily room cleaning. Enough towels. The location is perfect! 5 min walk from the bus and train, many places for sightseeing in walking distance to the east and west, many good restaurants within a 5-15 min walk, and a lidl supermarket around the corner too. Not allowed to eat meals in the room, quite noisy you can hear the upstairs neighbours run, side neighbours turn on the water/shower, and people talk in the hallway. Bathroom walls need some cleaning. Shower floor isnt straight so can be quite slippery. Booking.com website states theres breakfast included but according to the b&b theres no breakfast.
- Elizabet (4/5): Disappointing - I like the location I didn't like the room, everything was too cheap. Also it needed better cleaning.
The view from the window was awful and it was very dirty
- Mhalhel (9/5): Superb -
- Nataliia (9/5): Superb -
- Sebastian (9/5): Superb - Very nice clean room. Location was great and the community kitchen was useful. No reception which first made things confusing.
- Špela (9/5): Superb - Everything just perfect, very comfortable apartment with a balcony. Very friendly staff, nice breakfast! All in all, a really nice stay in Palermo! A bit too thin walls so that you could hear construction workers nearby.
- Thanh (9/5): You get what you expect from the accommodation description. - The host is welcoming and making sure you are arriving comfortably. Use Whatsapp reach the host (e.g. for question, etc.). Sometime the response would take some more minutes long.
- Mitja (10/5): Exceptional -
- Borahm (9/5): Superb - good location, kind staff, nice room a bit noisy cause it is near by main street
- Silvana (9/5): Great stay - Room was spacious and really nice. Host was very responsive, and flexible for us to leave our bags All good
- With (10/5): Exceptional - Excelent Rooms, Great location, highly recommend!
- Ghazi (8/5): it’s a good place, very well located, but a little bit expensive for what you get - it’s located just 2min walk from the central station no room service or cleaning
- Lura (7/5): Good - Very clean, nice bathroom. Sheets didn't fit bed. Light in lobby needs to come on automatically, didn't know there was a switch somewhere.
- NOELI MARIA (10/5): - Buono ed di buon prezio.
- Kathrine (8/5): Excellent location. Very comfortable. Good service. - Breakfast was not provided
- Martin (6/5): Pleasant - Cleanliness, proximity to bus station. Couldn't contact reception to leave our baggage and couldn't be sure there would be anyone there to let us in to collect them. Had to pay elsewhere for this service.
- Alex (9/5): Superb - Exceptionally clean nothing, it was great
- Prachi (6/5): - Well located, clean room. Would be nice to have some tea and coffee, though the manager did give us access to the kettle.
- Verena (10/5): Exceptional - The Host and the location of the B&B were great! there was nothing which wasn't good.
- Beata (8/5): superb! - I really liked everything. There were no breakfast, but it was ok, I could buy anything around the place.
- Eugenio (6/5): - B&..? e la colazione? allora non presentatelo come b&b
Gestore cortesissimo nulla da eccepire mancava la cuffia in doccia e lo spruzzo era soltanto quello fisso, per chi non vuole lavare i capelli?
- Verified traveler (8/5): - Bra beliggenhet, 7 min å gå fra togstasjonen. Veldig enkelt rom, aircondition funger bra, eieren er en rolig, hyggelig og hjelpsom kar.
- DAN (6/5): - Ok for the price .. no reception service and in our room we did not have wifi or mobile internet at all
- Michel (8/5): Modeste B&B de centre ville - Chambre convenable, calme bien qu'à proximité d'une des plus grandes artères de la ville, proche de la gare et de la gare routière. Le "breakfast" se prend dans un café de la Via Roma, un café mal tenu, et consiste uniquement en un café et une viennoiserie, parfois fraîche, parfois totalement rassie.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - La struttura è in pieno centro. Si raggiunge tutto a piedi. Molto pulita. Ti rifanno anche la camera. In pratica un hotel. Il proprietario squisito ha risposto ad ogni nostra richiesta in modo rapidissimo. Ci torneremo
- Paul (8/5): - The property is small - occupying one floor of a bigger building. The room was very comfortable, good bed, aircon and bathroom. Everything was new and modern. The room does not have a fridge, safe or coffee making machine. Breakfast is not presently being served but a voucher is issued to use at a nearby cafe where the friendly owner served coffee and pastries. The location is a side street between the 2 main roads and was very near the train station and just a few minutes walk to Quattro Canto and other sights. It felt very safe.
- Verified traveler (6/5): - Bed and room were comfy, and bathroom was nice.
Breakfast was very bad organized: it's supposed to be at one bar on the corner, and we were forced to ask for the voucher every single day (instead of giving us the 4 vouchers at once). 1 day bar was closed, so we had had to go somewhere else. The owner, fortunatelly, was there that time and refunded us.
Room was very humid, even with the dry function on AC. Windows to the internal patio were very rumorous.
Owner was not friendly at all, but the old woman manager did, luckily.
Amenities were ok, but set day by day. One day they forgot them so I had to use mine.
The neighbourhood seemed quite dangerous at night.
I'd not recommend it.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Nulla di speciale, ma è una situazione tranquilla e con in padrone di casa squisito.
- Verified traveler (8/5): - Buona la posizione per raggiungere il centro storico.
- MICHAEL (10/5): Clean, Comfortable, Excellent Service & Location - First, Giuseppe, the owner, speaks good English. He's friendly and very helpful. The B&B is within walking distance from the train and bus station. Our room was super clean, quiet, comfortable and a great shower with hot water plus toiletries. Breakfast from 8:00 to 10:00 a.m., was very good - especially the pastry and fruit. The location is excellent - within walking distance to all attractions and sites. Wi-fi in room was excellent. We enjoyed 5/days and nights. We'll recommend the B&B to all our American friends who visit Palermo.
- Bob (10/5): Nice hotel in central location - The hotel room was very nice, as was the breakfast served in the morning. Giuseppe, who runs the hotel, was very friendly and welcoming. He helped us out a lot by letting us leave our bags in reception after we'd checked out, so we could pick them up before getting our train later on. We had no problems at all and enjoyed our stay.
- Barbara (10/5): Buona nocte chez buona Luna! - I came back to Palermo for one night prior to leaving Sicily after a two week stay. The owner arranged to meet me on a Sunday afternoon to accommodate my travel plans and greeted do me with a friendly smile. He showed me around the recently renovated and immaculate rooms. I spent a restful night in a comfortable room decorated in soothing purple tones.
