10/10 Exceptional

We stayed in palermo just one night before heading to the west coast and we were so delighted with the service and quality of Bellaroto suites we ended up coming back on the last day to use their services for a day room. The host, Michele, was kind of enough to offer us to stay during the day if we needed before heading to the airport. On top of the fantastic service, and stay, he also gave us amazing restaurant tips and was very prompt to help us in any way we needed. We highly recommend...
