The location is perfect, right in the centre, the view from the terrace is fantastic. The shower is great. The windows insulate well , there was heating in the room, which we needed. There is an aircon and ventillator, must be essential in the summer. The host, Claudio, is very kind and flexible. He forgot I asked for separate beds with my friend and I, but arranged them for the next day.

The single beds are way too narrow, like camping bunkbeds for kids. We were afraid to turn on them, for fear of falling down. The very central location means noise at night, so if you are sensitive to that, bring earbuds. This is not a negative really, it comes from the location, so prepare for it.

Breakfast was excellent. Served in the room/terrace. Location cannot be better right in a pedestrian zone in the historical centre. Obviously, forget getting there by car; I parked my car in an underground car park (Orlando - EUR13/day) and walked 15 mins to the B&B. Didn't need the car for 3 days as all sites are easily accessible on foot.

Could do with a kettle in the room. One was available in the office, but inaccessible from my room (standard room).

So much to like starting with Claudio & the lady who kept our room in pristine condition - grazie! The location is absolute perfection for visiting all this amazing city has to offer. The room is bright, has air-con, a ceiling fan, lovely en-suite bathroom facilities and a wonderful balcony! The breakfast served each morning was a bonus.

Nothing - maybe a few extra hangers in the wardrobe..?

Great location in historic centre. On a very busy pedestrianised road full of restaurants but 5 floors up all was peaceful. Lovely balcony to sit out on. Really modern well fitted out room. Owner has spent a lot of time and trouble to make this 3 room B&B a lovely stay.

The breakfast was ok but simple fresh products could have made this so much better. But there is no need for this to put you off as right outside the door are loads of cafes and breakfast was secondary to all the other positives this place has to offer.

Great location, in the centre of all tourist attractions, balcony was fantastic and it was lovely to have breakfast out there in the mornings Breakfast was good Good communication with the host Bathroom very clean

Bed wasn’t the most comfortable but for the price I can’t complain

Perfect location! Was safe at night as it was literally on the main road of restaurants & cafes. Clean & comfortable. Claudio was great help too.

A little difficult to find the property - large signage at the front would be helpful. But this was really no problem.

in midst of old centre of Palermo. everything by foot. nice balcony for breakfast or relax end of the day. owner Claudio is very friemdly and helpful. knows the city very well and thus bood advice. whole day really crowded outside down the street but at night quiet. good and necessary airco, at least in summer parking Maqueda is 100 meters from b&b witch really helpful manager. just to park because seeing the centre by car is mission impossibke.

Super location Claudio was a great host who couldn’t have been more helpful - huge choice of restaurants and bars on the doorstep but fantastic soundproofing meant no problem sleeping

Took a while to find on the Main Street

We had the same Italian breakfast everyday consisting of yogurt, granola, toast, fresh croissants and cappuccino What made it special it was delivered each morning at 9 am by the host to our small deck overlooking the street. The B&B is on the 5th floor. The elevator is small but we were glad it was there . The best thing is the location which is close walking distance to everything' The apartment building is on the busiest pedestrian street in the historic center.

Could have had more storage, but this apartment is in the historic center. On the weekend the the street below was pretty loud. We knew the address but there is no signage, just a speaker box with name of B&B. We were at the front door but didn't know it.

3 nights in May. Very center of historic district, a block from the Quattro Canti and Fontana Pretoria, and a 5 minute walk from the airport shuttle bus stop on Via Roma 265/Vucciria. We walked 17 minutes to central station for a day trip to Cefalù (by train) and 17 minutes to piazza Indipendenza for the bus to Monreale. On the 5th floor (top) of an old building. No sign outside the building so look for the building number. There is an intercom with a button marked B&B Vivere. The old style lift (open cage) can accommodate 2 persons with carry-on bags, else you take turns if you have bigger bags. We were given 3 keys, typical of old buildings. Also, the old building scent on the ground floor. We had a nice breeze in our room from our terrace. Many souvenir shops, restaurants, bars, mini markets, etc at the doorstep. So convenient. My husband is 6ft tall, I’m 5’2. Our room was small but we only had carry on bags so size did not bother us. Having the terrace door open was a bonus. Our queen bed was comfortable. Linens were clean. Water pressure and temperature excellent. TV and wifi worked. Loved the terrace. Claudio provided what we considered a substantial breakfast of cappuccino, juice, croissant, yogurt, cereal and toast which we leisurely enjoyed on our terrace. He also gave us a paper map which came in handy when our iphone power got very low. B&B is on busy pedestrian block of via Maqueda. Great people watching. Our room was sound proofed but not enough 9pm-midnight when street music was blasting. Don’t know how much livelier and later it gets on weekends and summer. IF you are a light sleeper and need to be in bed by 10pm, this room will not work for you. We managed fine since we did our email, the news, etc until midnight. From the terrace, we were vicariously participating in the festivities below. And we slept fine until 9am. Good value? YES !

Just an inconvenience, not a dislike. The shower door did not close snugly so we spilled water outside while showering. Have referred to Claudio.
