Location is great, the room was big and clean.

I was a bit disappointed they don't have breakfast, which was a big plus on the advert. Pictures were misleading. The reason they gave was "because of Covid", which makes no sense since there's practically no restriction left.

The owner of the place was very kind, helpful and communicative. Whenever we had questions, he was readily available to answer them. After checkout, we could even leave our luggage before catching the train to our next destination. So the staff deserves a rating 10/10!

The bed wasn't the most comfortable in our room (very bouncy and probably a little overused) and generally the facilities seemed a bit older, mainly in the bathroom (the toilet paper holder kept falling off and the shower support was loose). But it was still okay to use - just being very picky here.

The location of the hostel was perfect for us. It allows to reach all of the central attractions of Palermo by foot and it is very near to the few streets allowing free parking. There are also a lot of grocery shops in the vicinity of the hostel which is great considering the availability of a kitchen in the family suite.
