Breakfast was great. Location in Palermo was also very accessible, we were able to do street parking as we arrived Saturday and left Sunday. Many restaurants and shops within a quick walk. We stayed in the "small double room" and while it was very clean and comfortable for one night, if staying longer I would definitely opt for a larger space. Super cool property but a bit tricky to find the first time, made much easier by a daytime arrival.

A great stay

We had a great stay at Family Affair. Our room - the corner suite - was beautifully decorated, spacious and spotlessly clean. Breakfast was outstanding and service friendly, efficient and thoughtful. Would not hesitate to stay again and have already recommended to friends.
