Good Palermo Location with walkable amenities

The property is located in a very good area in Palermo near Palermo Soho with many walkable amenities such as restaurants and bars. Overall, the property was in good condition, but there is room for improvement. The property does not have a restaurant, so the breakfast is average and do not try the room service. Cleanliness is inconsistent, as it depends on who is cleaning the room. Wi-Fi in the room is not reliable, so for working, this hotel does not work. Overall, it is a good stay for a short trip - it offers the basic needs, but is not outstanding.
