Problems: the TV did not work and somebody probably smoked inside the apartment, so it smelled like cigarettes. We did notify the host upon check-in but never heard back.

B&B Hotel Palermo Quattro Canti

B&B Hotel Palermo Quattro Canti

10/10 Excellent
"The B&B is brilliantly located at Quattro Canti, the central crossroads in the heart of Palermo. The close up view from the terrace of several church domes is superb. The property would benefit from even a small amount of upgrading. It is rather utilitarian and reminiscent of student hostel accommodation. In our room, one of the metal legs of the bed had ground a noticeable hole in the linoleum flooring. It degrades the overall impression. There is a lack of management in the terrace restaurant at breakfast. On different days, the umbrellas were not raised, there were no plates, cutlery had run out, the eggs and sausages were stone cold every day etc. Certain food items need replenishing etc. There didn’t seem to be anyone managing the overall guest offering. This is a shame, as the terrace is superb. We would stay again, because if the location and terrace, but would gladly see more efforts to upgrade the property."

Great location, friendly staff, and I would like to especially call out the INCREDIBLE Concierge, Dorotea! She went out of her way to ensure that we could change our rental car drop off location and help us get a shuttle to the Ferry. She was always willing to help and went above and beyond to ensure we were taken care of and even offered suggestions on where to take my wife for her birthday! We cannot say enough about her and we hope to be able to stay there again in the future!"
