C'era Una Volta

Don't expect service and cleanest as a 3+ hotel.

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.

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.
