Very Good

Interesting location in a crumbling old palazzo. The entrance is a bit intimidating but the hotel inside is basic but fine. Friendly and good location. Cooking smells were a bit strong, and breakfast was very basic, but overall a good experience.
Staff very friendly and helpful. Hotel very clean.

Simple but clean accommodation in a central location close to bus and train stations. Amazing entry courtyard snd ceiling fresco in the breakfast room, as the building was originally a prince's palace...

Excellent central location, walking distance to most attractions. Spacious and very clean room. Excellent , very helpful staff.
Expedia shud provide check in instructions. Guests arrive to a locked door at street level. No code to punch in, no phone #, no way to contact anybody or get off the street until another guest lets you in. Frustrating after a long train ride.
This bed and breakfast is a great stay for price. Close to the market and an easy walk to bars and restaurants.

Online description didn’t focus on it being a 700 year old building with lots of stairs to climb for older guests.
Minimal room but welcoming staff.
Palermo is a “gritty” City!
The hotel's exterior is unassuming, with not much clear signage, but the inside courtyard is nice. The rooms were large and clean, and the external separate bathroom was nicely appointed. For a budget stay, I definitely recommend.
Ballarò hotel was a great option for a few nights at an affordable price. Complimentary breakfast was good, and close walk to Palermo Centrale for travel.

Very basic but clean and safe and comfortable without frills. Staff was friendly, breakfast was a nice bonus and the cool old royal palace was definitely interesting. Location is easy, perhaps be cautious at night but otherwise didn’t feel unsafe.
