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.

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!

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

Cute B&B in Palermo Central

Found this B&B in the last minute and it was perfect for a one night stay in Palermo. The staff was very friendly and welcoming, especially Antonella reagrding Parking and other tips for around the area. The breakfast was great as well and the hotel's location was central to the old and the new part - hence touring around was easy and convenient.

We could not rate this property. They notified us the day before we were due to arrive that there was a plumbing issue in the room and they had organised for us to stay in a similar property nearby. These things happen and we thank them for help.

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.

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.

Wir bekamen ein 4-Bett-Zimmer und hatten dadurch viel Platz. Das Bad war auch groß- Einziges Manko: Parken kostet 14 Euro extra und das Auto wird abgeholt und in einer Garage untergebracht. Schnell mal mal wegfahren ist dadurch schwierig. Das Personal war sehr freundlich und wir haben gute Tips zum Abendessen bekommen. Ein sehr gutes Preis-Leistungsverhältnis.

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. Jammer dat je voor koffie en thee niet zelf kan inschenken maar steeds aan het personeel moet vragen.

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.
