Great spot by the airport
While the neighborhood is a little scary - its so darn close to the airport - so the convenience was worth it. That said, the hotel itself was safe, secure and very new/clean. I would recommend this place - it was everything we wanted all rolled up in a convenient spot - especially if you do not plan to go out much.

Tidy, clean, friendly, secure hotel, very convenient for the airport, with a very good breakfast. Located in an area of business units and the like, but this was as expected, given proximity to airport. I would very happily stay here again.

Nice airport hotel with what you would expect of one. Breakfast was okish with various pastry only, but this seems to be a traditional Sicilian deal. The only drawback, there is no elevator and no offer to help with the luggage. So you carry it to the 3rd floor (about 20 steps per floor) on a relatively narrow staircase.

The ONLY problem was check in. We neglected to notify in advance figuring we had already booked and paid. There is no hotel staff on site. We had to ring, and call multiple times while we waited outside for almost an hour. Once in, all was good. The arrangement is more like a guesthouse with your own keys to come and go.
