Staying at the hotel was a pleasant experience overall. The rooms were conveniently located near our own, making the stay more enjoyable. However, being only 8 blocks from the train station on the main boulevard, there was some noise to contend with.

The location can't be beat for sightseeing and travel connections, despite being on a very busy street. Close proximity to train and airport connections along with Quatro Canti sights and markets was a definite plus.

Dining at the rooftop terrace was a really comfortable experience, only a 5-minute walk from Quatro Canti. While enjoyable, more fruit options could have enhanced the dining experience.

The hotel has a central location in Palermo, making it convenient for sightseeing; however, noise from the food fair at night was a disturbance. The service, especially from Francesco and Greta, was exceptional, going above and beyond to assist us during our stay. The rooftop dining experience offers fantastic views but could improve its breakfast selection.

The hotel offers decent size rooms with large bathrooms and showers, complemented by a surprisingly good breakfast buffet on a lovely terrace with an amazing view. However, occasional noise disturbances from nearby party-goers waiting for the toilets next to our room can be disrupting.

The hotel rooms may feel dark and a bit depressing, but they are surprisingly spacious and soundproof. The service stands out with staff offering larger rooms upon complaint and displaying a pleasant and endearing character. The location is excellent near the old town of Palermo, though it lacks a lively atmosphere late at night. The dining options are satisfactory, with freshly baked cakes and some hot breakfast items available. Overall, the hotel offers comfort and good value for money.
