    Since the place is on the central pedestrian street, Friday night was quite noisy. No AC, just a fan.

    Very nice and responsive host. BB has a nice and authentic design. Very clean, central place. Even the bathroom was shared, it didn’t cause any problem. There are several bathrooms.

    No conditioner. This is very important at this time of the year, it was abnormally hot at night which made it very difficult to sleep, despite having two fans in the room. The large ceiling fan did not work.

    Perfect location. The host is kind. We arrived quickly and got into our rooms, which allowed us to enjoy the city without heavy suitcases. We liked everything.

    Great location in the centre of Trapani old town, 2 minutes walk from the beach and 5 minutes walk from the ferry port. Very friendly staff. I had a room with a shared bathroom but there were plenty of bathrooms and I never had to wait.

    Excellent location on a very beautiful main street. Room had a bed, little sink(unexpected feature that i loved), little fridge(was a bit noisy, but was not a problem), little balcony. Needed nothing more for a single traveler and one night stay. Maria the host - amazing women! So welcoming and helpfull. They provide airport shuttle.

    The host was so nice and helpful and gave me recommendations for dinner:) The location is amazing, so within 2 minutes you are at the beach and the old town is right in front of your door! I came there to work from there and the Internet was stable and I could even work from the beautiful balcony.

    It is located above a resteraunt and bar on the most busy street for passers-by. If you leave the window open at night it can be rather noisy.

    This historic building has the coolest atrium when you enter. It is so close to the sea. If you go out and look right you see a beautiful clock building they light up in rose color at night. At the corner look left and you are two minutes to the port. If you turn right in a two minute stroll you will be at the lungo mare (beach walkway) high above the waves. Incredible location and Maria is so helpful and caring.

    I really liked the atmosphere, very cozy. The hostel is located in an old historical building. The exit directly to the walking street is beautiful and convenient. All that was needed in the room was a refrigerator and fans, including. I can only recommend it!

    Completely satisfied with the value for money.

    The only drawback, if I were to point one out, is that the B&B does not have an elevator. However, it's worth noting that the host at the B&B was very kind and offered to assist us in carrying our luggage upstairs. Furthermore, considering the historical nature of the building, the absence of an elevator is quite understandable.

    Generally, accommodations with shared bathrooms can be a gamble, but in this instance, we were extremely satisfied with the cleanliness of both the bathroom and the bedroom. The room offered ample space, excellent amenities, and the B&B's location exceeded our expectations. Situated in the heart of Trapani, we had easy access to beautiful beaches, delicious food, and vibrant nightlife. Thank you.
