Our experience staying at Sky Sleeping
My wife and I stayed at Sky Sleeping for a few nights around New Year's 2023. The location is good, everything is within walking distance. It is more like a B&B than a hotel. There is no onsite personnel for check-in or a front desk like you would expect at a hotel, and check-in was not as smooth as we expected. Palermo is a loud city (extra loud for New Year's). The rooms had sound proof doors to the balcony which was very helpful, but even so there is still quite a bit of noise from traffic and car horns. If noise is an issue for you, you might not want to stay in Palermo... Once inside there is a long hallway similar to a hotel with several guest rooms. The walls are thin and you can hear people coming and going. We rented a car and visited several locations in Sicily. That worked out well for us, but if you are not confident in your ability to drive a standard transmission vehicle on narrow roads at high speeds in chaotic conditions - don't rent a car! Driving in Palermo is not for everyone. There is free parking on the street but it is hard to find an open spot. There is also a paid parking very close by (cash only). Overall we enjoyed our time in Palermo.

Very nice and handy Palermo B&B
We chose this B&B because it was half way between the freeway to the airport and old downtown Palermo. It is on the 8th floor of a building walking distance to most of what you want to see in Palermo. There is an elevator. The owner is very nice and accommodating. You have to let the owner know when you plan on arriving. We were arriving earlier than planned and I called to let him know and he was there within 15 minutes of our arrival. The rooms were comfortable and very clean, the breakfast was good, and the WiFi rocked. A car park is just around the corner from the B&B. Traffic is bad so park your car and walk. The owner recommended Ristorante Beccafico and it was so good we ate there both nights. We definitely recommend this B&B.

Very nice place in Palermo
The view from our room was simply incredible. And, the hotel is right up the street from very good dining. It is right on a fairly busy street, but noise was not an issue. The lift is small, I think 2 people and their luggage is about its max.

Decent, central place to stay
If you're looking for a low-cost and relatively central place to stay in Palermo...this is it. Nothing fancy about the place, but it's clean and the staff is helpful in answering the myriad of questions about what to see, where to eat, etc. Set on the 8th story of an apartment building in Palermo...there are great views from the dining and terrace. It's also well kept, though it is a no-frills kind of place. Don't expect a luxurious breakfast, that too is bare-boned. Would stay again though...now knowing what to expect.

I arrived 1 hour before i have said, and i had to wait until they came to open the door, so i had to wait 20 minutes in the stairs!. it was clean hotel but it had a weird smell i didnt like........ the owner is nice
Response from Massimo on Sep 6, 2014
I'm sorry for the wait! I always wonder arrival time to avoid waiting. Unfortunately we do not have reception in the afternoon and information about arrival time is important to avoid unnecessary waiting. If we agree an arrival time together, I expect to receive you in that hour. Anyway, I apologize again for the inconvenience. I will try to better understand the importance of communication time of arrival!

Sehr angenehme Unterkunft, mein Zimmer hatte eine Klimaanlage und ein schönes Badezimmer. Die Dachterrasse ist abends angenehm. Der Mitarbeiter ist sehr nett und hilfsbereit. Die gemeinschaftlich benutzte Küche könnte sauberer sein. (Die Spülmaschine war nicht funktionsfähig, war trotzdem voll mit schmutzigem Geschirr.)

BB interamente gestito in remoto dal signor Massimo, sempre cortese e disponibile a dare supporto via whatsapp. Stanza confortevole e ben arredata. Il BB è a 20 minuti a piedi dal centro città. Unici due problemi: la colazione è praticamente Inutilizzabile in quanto fai da te e in confezioni già aperte non sono compatibili con le norme comportamentali del COVID19. I filtri dello split nella stanza erano colmi di polvere e anche questo in periodo di COVID non è il massimo, peccato se non fosse stato per queste due importanti pecche avrebbe preso certamente una valutazione superiore.

Gentile Sig. Marco, la ringrazio per avere trovato il tempo per esprimere un giudizio sul suo soggiorno. Mi spiace per le due pecche che ha rilevato; tuttavia, se per il filtro del condizionatore posso darle assolutamente ragione (e in tal senso provvederemo subito a sistemare le cose) per quanto riguarda la colazione le cose non stanno assolutamente come le ha percepite lei. Il nostro b&b non serve assolutamente le colazioni al suo interno dalla riapertura post pandemia (mese di giugno 2020), per ovvi motivi sanitari. I clienti che fanno espressa richiesta di avere la colazione la consumano in un bar nelle vicinanze del B&B, dietro consegna di un nostro voucher. Nel suo caso, la tariffa da lei acquistata su questo portale non prevedeva la colazione; pertanto non comprendo la natura del suo appunto. Ad ogni modo, è sempre un piacere chiarire gli equivoci. Infine, per quanto concerne la sicurezza sanitaria all'interno della camera tengo a precisare che ad ogni partenza il nostro b&b provvede a pulire le camere e a sanificarle con una macchina ad ozono certificata, con abbattimento di virus, batteri e muffe fino al 99%.

Dubbio trasferimento.....in camera inopportuna
Il proprietario mi ha chiamato un giorno prima per dirmi che (con una scusa) la camera non era accessibile per dei lavori all'interno. Solite scuse che trovano quando devono sistemare altre cose loro....Poi a suo dire mi ha "riprotetto" (come se una persona avesse bisogno di una protezione ....!!!) spostandomi su un hotel di sua proprietà lontano dal posto di mio interesse mettendomi in difficoltà con le spese del taxi rispetto a quanto avevo previsto. La sorpresa più interessante è che mi ha dato una cameretta con una superficie pari a tre volte un loculo del cimitero e con un grado di umidità elevatissimo dalle pareti in cui era incastrato il letto. Facendomi dormire tra le lenzuole umide.

Echt klasse,
Ich war voll zufrieden. Die Zimmer liegen im 8.Stock ( Aufzug vorhanden). Einige Zimmer haben einen Balkon mit tollem Blick ùber Palermo. Bushaltestelle ist direckt vor dem Haus ( Linie 122 zum Bahnhof ). Braucht man aber eigentlich nicht, Sehenwùrdigkeiten der Altstadt sind gut zu Fuss erreichbar. Das Frùhstùck war gut, in Bùffetform, Italienisch mit Gebaeck und Kaffee, Tee und Milch, sowie Multisaft . Auch die Dachterrasse ist toll zum relaxen. Das einzige minus, ist die Geraeuschkulisse. Hat man aber in ganz Palermo und war nicht extrem. Alles in einem eines der besten B&B die ich in Sizilien hatte.

thanks for the nice compliments! is a pleasure to hear that my work appeals to customers. For the noise, this is the first time I hear this type of comment. Usually people say that Sky Sleeping is very quiet, just because we are on the eighth floor and we are not on a public road. However, we can not be perfect! :-))
