B&B Camelot

-Location: the hotel is located in a downtown neighborhood but close to tourist attractions -Service: the biggest issue we encountered was to check in the hotel upon arrival. Since there is no reception at the building, you’re supposed to contact the hotel owner, William, by phone for getting the keys. However, the breakfasts there were lovely with scenic rooftop view and handmade beverages by the caterer -Cleanliness: the room is generally clean but there’s no daily cleaning service and windows need to be opened to dispel odors -Amenities: the best part of the hotel’s amenities was that they got a water dispenser for refilling your water bottles *the staff there only speak Italian

Poor unacceptable standard B&B Located in a really seedy (poor) part of the town yet, only minutes from the Cathedral, located along dirty streets with garbage strewn everywhere, we arrived at the Camelot B&B in Palermo. It is in an old building converted into two rooms on each floor level. There are no elevators and you must be prepared to climb steep steps to get to your room. We immediately noticed that the door lock surround had been patched up after being obviously opened by force. Upon entering the rooms, the design was of a medieval nature eg: The theme being from the Kingdom of Camelot. Basically appointed and barely provided with anything but a few liquid shower gel sachets there was basically,the beds, beaten up modern day chipboard wardrobe, a wall mounted TV and thankfully, an operating air conditioner. The room was shocking and not clean. Breakfast was taken by all the occupants of the other rooms from 08.30-09.30 in a room hardly big enough to sit 5 guests. The so called verandah on the roof was a joke. Not at all fit for the purpose. In fact all the green astro turf shown on online listings was in such poor condition (but, I understand now being replaced). This is a cheap and frankly unacceptable B&B and if awarded any star by any standards barely deserving of a one star. I don’t believe this poor quality of accommodations should be accepted for listing on online rental platforms. In short, look for something else. Pay a little more money and get an acceptable B&B
