If you're travelling on a budget, backpacker or on a short vacation, this is great value for money. The location is hard to beat; 2 minutes from all the sites and sights. I cannot recommend it for a long term stay.
If you're a digital nomad, the internet is very good, had no problems during my stay at all. It is not quiet, since Italians are a loud people how ever, so be aware that if you need your sleep it's not ideal.
That said, for the money it's hard to beat. If you're in Palermo to see the sights, have fun and enjoy Palermo and just need a base to rest before going out again this is right for you. Ohh! and the host is awesome. :)
