Ok-ish

Pros: the people running the B&B were helpful, and the room I got was big. The location was pretty good as well. Cons: the place is super noisy with building and outside traffic. Very difficult to find. The car situation was less than ideal, as there parking partner was full (it happens though). Though my interactions with the people running the place were great, they didn’t have a great way to initially get ahold of them. Not a bad place though.

Can I start with what was strange. I wrote that I will be arriving at 20;00 when I made the reservations. But when I arrived at 20:05 the door was closed and they were not aware of my reservation/. Thankfully all doors could be remotely opened and I was able to enter. Glad that it wasn’t raining. Breakfast was not served in the b&B due circumstances, but they arranged for BF at a local cafe. Funny to eat breakfast like a local. Lastly checkout was at 10:00. That’s really to early. 11:00 or 12;00 would be better. I overlooked this when I booked. Luckily Noemi made it possible for a later checkout. I think I was the only guest. The b&B was located ina building along with other b&B like luxurxy suites. It has an elevator. Quite a beautiful building. Rooms and public spaces was clean and well maintained. Water in shower at night was weird. It changed from hot to cold. Right when I was full of soap. Important to not turn up the water. Because after a few minutes it got hot again. And it could be scalding hot. The shower was big enough, but the entrance was quite awkward. Be careful if you are not so mobile. Location was great. Right between the cruise port and the city/center of town. Plenty of busses. But truthfully…the busses is weird when they come or not. I just walked everywhere. Palermo’s easy to walk as it’s quite flat. In the neighborhood is very quiet. Not many restaurants orsupermarket. So you can sleep really well.

Kiva majoitus, esteettömyys ei vastannut kuvausta

Majoitus oli viehättävä, hyvät ja siistit huoneet sekä tosi mukavat pitäjät. Kuvauksessa ilmoitettua aulabaaria ei ollut, aamiaisella (pulla + kahvi) piti käydä noin 100m:n päässä olevassa kahvilassa. Huoneissa oli jääkaapit joten seuraaviksi aamuiksi ostimme omat aamiaistarvikkeet kaupasta. Matkaseurueessa yksi liikkui pyörätuolilla, mutta kulku ei ollutkaan kuvauksesta poiketen esteetön: hissille neljä rappusta. Hissiin mahtui 60cm leveä pyörätuoli, mutta senttiäkään ei ylimääräistä.

Great localization, fantastic room

We booked C’era una volta for one night only, and we got to stay in L’orlando Furioso, owned by the same lovely couple, one floor above the C’era una volta B&B. The bathroom was modern, well equipped, the colorful, pulsing lights in the shower were fantastic. The room was modernized & comfortable. Breakfast was very nice! The staff - attentive and friendly; the perfect localization of the b&b (if you plan to stay in the center and have a walking distance to most of Palermo’s attractions) was a big plus. We were surprised, though, the parking wasn’t free (that’s what our ebooker’s booking listed), but it must have been a technical website problem, so not blaming the staff. Overall, highly recommend! Great job you guys!

Sono stata molto bene. La posizione centraliasima, molto conveniente per girare a piedi. Il personale excellente. La camera molto comoda. L'unica cosa che aggiunerei sarebbe una caraffa o macchina di caffè per la colazione. Io prendo al meno due capuccini a casa, quindi questo mi è mancato al buffet. Comunque, un soggiorno molto gradevole.

Nice but noisy

We likes the staff and the location and the bnb itself but the walls are paper thin and we would go out every night until late and get woken up every morning at six am by the people preparing breakfast or making deliveries. We don't understand why this has such a high rating as breakfast was always something sweet nothing healthy, the coffee wasn't nice and they cancelled one out rooms ten minutes before arrival

Goede B&B in het centrum van Palermo. Aardig en behulpzame personeel. De kamer is schoon en het bed was heerlijk. Ook fijn is de airco. Het ontbijt was geweldig, verse broodjes en met lekkere vleeswaren met variatie aan heerlijke zoete taartjes/cake en koekjes.

Sehr modernes B&B mitten im Zentrum von Palermo

Das B&B befindet sich in einer Fußgängerzone an einem kleinen Platz mit vielen Restaurants und Bars. Die Zimmer sind sauber und sehr modern eingerichtet, mit Klimaanlage und Fußbodenheizung im Badezimmer. Die Angestellte des B&B sprach Englisch und war sehr hilfsbereit und freundlich. Das Frühstücksbüffet war ausreichend und sehr lecker, für einen längeren Aufenthalt allerdings etwas zu geringe Auswahl. Nach dem Checkout konnten wir unsere Koffer noch im B&B lagern, bis unser Flug ging.

Pequeña pensión modernizada con buen gusto

El personal es excelente, servicial y atento. La ubicación es buena (el autobús procedente del aeropuerto para en Politeama que está a unos diez minutos caminando). La habitación era correcta y el baño estaba bien. El desayuno es aceptable. La decoración es muy agradable. Se trata de un antiguo piso adaptado a pequeña pensión. El único inconveniente es que las habitaciones estan muy próximas a la recepción y a veces las conversaciones se oyen desde dentro de la habitación y da sensación de falta de privacidad.
