Although on-site parking was listed, it was difficult to find, and access to the hotel by car was difficult too. The garden courtyard was pleasant, but rooms at that level (we booked a "standard room") had no ventilation unless you gave up your privacy and opened your door. AC was weak at best and seemed to go off in the morning, leaving us with a stuffy and humid room. The young man who helped us with parking and luggage was great, and the breakfast was ample and quite good. Access to central Palermo is a problem as taxis overcharge for that area.
