Worth weighing

3 to weigh
  • Shared bathroom options — Some rooms come with private bathrooms, but the guesthouse also offers double and triple rooms with shared facilities, which may not suit all travellers.
  • Breakfast is at a nearby bar — Breakfast is served at a neighbouring coffee shop or bar rather than on-site, which might be less convenient for guests who prefer an in-house meal.
  • Airport is 30 km away — While a shuttle is available for a fee, the distance to Falcone-Borsellino airport means transfers take time and add to the cost of the stay.
