"Beautiful apartment! Great location! Franco and Maria were wonderful to work with. They were very accommodating and helped us set up transportation from our parking to the apartment since my parents would have had a difficult time walking with luggage to the apartment. The walk is not far but would have been difficult for my elderly parents with luggage in tow. The apartment was modern and spacious and conveniently located. I highly recommend! Thank you Franco and Maria for hosting us!"

10/10 Excellent
"Really well located hotel right outside the pedestrian zone in Palermo. In just 5 minutes you are in front of Teatro Massimo. The hotel is very secure, the staff is very friendly. Also important to note that the staff is the same everyday, and you’ll see the same ppl greeting you which is nice. The breakfast is everything you need to start a day. Small and fresh selection of cheese and meat, cereal, yogurts and of course their sweets. Rooms are very comfortable, with excellent bedding and mattresses. Very strong Air conditioning, and a great shower/bathroom. I would certainly recommend for couples and would stay again."
