Cassaro 261

My recent stay at Cassaro 261 B&B left much to be desired. We had planned to stay 6 nights in total, but sought alternative accommodation after one night. While the concept of a bed and breakfast is usually associated with cozy and inviting accommodations, my experience felt more like staying in a converted apartment. Firstly, the layout of the B&B is unconventional, with all rooms leading directly onto the breakfast area. This setup resulted in significant noise levels, especially during mornings when guests gathered for breakfast. The lack of soundproofing made it difficult to rest peacefully. Moreover, the overall ambiance was dampened by the run-down and dark entrance to the building. The lack of adequate lighting and the condition of the entrance did not inspire confidence in the safety and security of the premises. A major concern was the absence of emergency exit lights or any visible evacuation plan. In the event of an emergency, guests would likely face challenges navigating their way to safety, which is unacceptable for any accommodation establishment. In summary, while Cassaro 261 B&B may offer affordable lodging, the converted apartment-like atmosphere, noise issues, and safety shortcomings detracted significantly from the overall experience. Improvement in these areas is essential to ensure the comfort and well-being of guests.

Cassaro 261 is a little gem perfectly located in the heart of Palermo's historic area. One is able to walk everywhere - tourist attractions, train and bus stations, supermarkets, and the waterfront. The staff is friendly, helpful and immediately responded to our calls for assistance, like when we inadvertently locked ourselves out of our room. The rooms were bright, cheery, and most importantly immaculate. The refrigerator in the common area was a plus for us. I have stayed here twice and will make it three times on my next trip to Palermo.

I loved this B&B. Although that was not my first impression. We arrived in the evening and the building looked like a big, square Soviet-style apartment building from decades past. That all changed when we got to our room: modern, bright, cheerful, and immaculate. There is a common room that has a refrigerator and coffee maker. The staff is very accommodating. It's just two minutes from the Quatro Canti, so you will be near some great restaurants, shopping, and close to a city information office. Just note, that like all B&Bs you will need to text or call to arrange for a check-in time. No 24/7 front desk. Will definitely return on my next trip to Palermo.

ACHTUNG Abzocke. Habe das parken über die Unterkunft gebucht. Das Parkhaus ist einer Fußgängerzone. Hierzu wurde gesagt, dass es der Polizei gemeldet wird. Das ist nicht geschehen, dadurch habe ich für jeden Tag einen Strafzettel bekommen - Becareful. I booked parking there. They said it is allright to drive into the parking spot. Now I got a ticket for every single day. This is ridicioulus!!!!
