Reviews for Al Baglio
Review 1:The hotel was clean and staff were friendly. In a very good location near the beach and nice hotels. Rooms were good size and en-suite. Thanks for a nice stay.
Review 2:Breakfast was basic. It was included in the room price otherwise we wouldn't have eaten there.
Review 3:We always ask ahead for a quiet room and this request is usually ignored. But Al Baglio took special care and gave us a wonderfully quiet room, resulting in good sleep and happy guests. Also, providing towels for the beach was great.
Review 4:90 euros was a wee bit on the higher side.
Review 5:Well located up a side street 100 meters from the shore. A quiet oasis set in a compound with greenery. Free bike use, free use of umbrellas and lounge chairs to take to beach. Each unit has small kitchenette incase you buy your own food. Breakfast is fine.
Review 6:I found the beds to be very firm and uncomfortable for me. I had to use a cushion I found on the bench in our room to slide under my sheets so that my back did not hurt in the morning. This seems somewhat typical of Italian hotels though since our previous hotel seemed to have the same mattress. The linens were clean, however, as was the room. We would have liked to have an additional key though for the times when one of us wanted to go out and the other person stayed in the room. When the key is removed from the slot, all electricity shuts off. The key is required to get in and out of the outside locked gate after 9 pm, so whoever left needed to take it with them leaving the remaining person literally in the dark and with no air conditioning. I am sure that is to conserve energy but we found that very inconvenient.
Review 7:The staff was most accomodating and friendly. Any requests were quickly addressed. Parking on the street is very challenging, but the owner was willing to allow us to park in his garage. The location was very close to the beaches and had plenty of access to stores and restaurants. Even the street vendors had very good food to grab for lunches while at the beach. The area felt very safe to walk around either early in the morning or the evenings. The courtyard is gated and locked after 9pm giving a further sense of safety.
Review 8:Very friendly hosts, always ready to help, clean and cozy. Near the beach and the center, with good transport links by car to all the places. No parking, but owner was allowed into his garage. Very grateful.
Review 9:The staff is very friendly and helpful. Appartments are cleaned every day and are provided with all neccessary thing. Even the croissants for breakfast were delicious! Thanks for this stay.
Review 10:Can be a bit tricky to find a parking lot if you travel by car
Review 11:Lovely staff who was happy to help with directions, tips and they even lend us a beach umbrella and deck chair for our trip to the beach
Review 12:An amazing location, just 2 minutes from the centre. The staff were very friendly and helpful. The room very spacious and clean. I loved de place. The owner of the place was as helpful and hands on as the Staff. Amazing experience. Will be coming back, soon.
Review 13:Parking very close to Al Baglio can be a bit rubbish, but usually room down on the seafront in winter.
Review 14:We stayed a year ago, the night before flying out of Palermo, and liked the location so much we stayed there on our first night on this year's trip. The view from Room 23 was stunning.
Review 15:Shower was more like a trickle. Towels changed every 3 days, not good for 100Euros a night.
Review 16:Breakfast was good. Friendly staff. 3 min walk to the bus no 608 to Palermo. Beware of pickpockets on bus! Triple bedroom on 3rd floor had fly screens but one had 2 holes in where mosquitoes came in at the end of October. Bathroom located in room so that its window opened into bedroom which was odd as it could have been situated differently. Bathroom had hairdryer, makeup mirror, shower, wc and bidet
Review 17:Although they claim to be a B&B, they are actually running a hotel in disguise: no true authenticity & hotel prices. Which is ok, but might surprise some travelers expecting a B&B experience.
Review 18:Spacious room & bathroom, excellent WiFi signal, very short walking distance to the center of Mondello
Review 19:Mosquitos were severe at night, i got 47stinges! And they were itching lamentably. It s a bad thing the hotel doesnt have a mosquito net. And it was extremely loud during the whole night. First roar from the traffic, then stinky neighbpurs watching tv the whole night (why are they doing this on vacarion???? ), and then the traffic again + squeaking mosquitos - such a simphony! The hotel is in the middle of nowhere. I dont understand those who say the location is in the party mile there. Though we found a very very good resraurant there, but you need to walk around 1 km along deserted dark streets.
Review 20:Very friendly personel
Review 21:Occasionally noisy in the mornings but maybe that's because we didn't get up too early!
Review 22:Beside main square and beautiful beach Huge room and bathroom Great breakfast with good coffee Wifi excellent Family who run Al Baglio are most helpful particularly their daughter Own checkout day you can get beach towels and use the shower.
Review 23:Al Baglio is a clean place with generous rooms. Everything works, is clean and confortable. WiFi worked perfectly and the breakfast was nice. We particularly loved the service that went beyond what we expected. We had a problem needing assistance at night and the manager came to help when I called walking him up.
Review 24:The only inconvenience was that towels are changes once in 3 days only that in my opinion is too rare for staying in beach area. But separate beach towels are available by request and are changed on a daily basis. There was noisy outside with open balcony at night but it is not a question to the hotel.
Review 25:This B&B hotel is very cozy by appearance and atmosphere. Personnel is so unquestionably friendly and helpful that at once you feel like at home. The furniture is quite basic, but there is everything that is necessary, neither less nor more (bed with two bedside tables and bra, wardrobe, bigger table, two chairs, safe box, TV, kettle and fridge). We personally missed one more small table between chairs and large mirror on wardrobe although we caught a glimpse of it in another room nearby. Bathroom is quite large, with shower and bidet. Location of the hotel is right in the center of Mondello, very close to public sand beach while the paid beach area requires about 15 minutes walking. Air conditioning contains many options to choose so after a couple of nights we found the optimal one for sleeping exactly for us. Breakfast may turn out to be insufficient or unvaried for guests from for instance Russia or the UK but it represents extended classic Italian one with croissants, ham, cheese, tomatoes, cereals, toasts, watermelon and some other things together with coffee made right for you immediately after order. Having an early flight we were provided with small fresh breakfast to the room the night before. In general, I would definitely recommend this hotel for feeling the true atmosphere of Mondello and big thanks to Giosue', Stefania and all the staff for their efforts and assistance
Review 26:They ignored the "do not disturb" sign and rang the bell while we were doing a siesta. Wifi was poor. Always had to ask for new passwords.
Review 27:Room is good, breakfast is good, staff is very helpful, location is perfect. When we leaved early, we asked for breakfast the evening before, and they made it for us.
Review 28:My room had the most beautiful view. The hotel was located right in the middle of everything. Great staff, great food, and great location. I wouldn't want to stay anywhere else.
Review 29:The place, distance from the sea, the people manage the place..
Review 30:A little expensive although it was July. Only place no one tryed to rib you off all the same.

Review 40:close to beach, nice room
Review 41:We could only stay 1 night, would love to stay longer!
Review 42:Very nice, we needed to leave too early in the morning for breakfast to catch our flight, so they brought us some breakfast in our room the evening before! Beautiful room, great location. Parking took a few drives around to find the best spot, but several places within a few hundred meters.
Review 43:A bit noisy when other guests get back from a night out but it was to be expected and the noise didn't go on too long.
Review 44:Lovely stay at Al Baglio which is positioned extremely well for the centre of Mondello, near restaurants and the beach. The staff were excellent. The room was spotlessly clean.
Review 45:The staff were really friendly and the location of the hotel was great as it was very close to the main square and the beach. The room was really nice and clean, we thoroughly enjoyed our stay.
Review 46:Everything was excellent
Review 47:All tyhe staff were friendly and welcoming. They could not do enough for you. They were always willing to answer queries and helping in any way they could. I could not praise them more highly. In fact we had 5 nights booked, then moved on but having had such a lovely time at Al Baglio we returned for our last 2 nights.
Review 48:Would have liked some English channels on the television
Review 49:Free continental breakfast, location was fantastic (across from the beach and near restaurants), air conditioning, very clean and decent sized room, good shower pressure, free bike hire, free gym, fridge in room, safe in room, good value for money when compared the other accommodation, private airport transfer organised by hotel was 35 euro
Review 50:Very central location... Just 2 minutes away from the city center, and just 5 minutes to walk to the beach. Staff is very helpful, definitely worth money!
Review 51:This B & B was exactly what we needed for our travels. it was exceptionally clean, the facilities (room, WC, TV, Fridge) were to a very high standard. The staff were both very welcoming and friendly. The breakfast provided was excellent. We all really enjoyed our stay and would highly recommend this to anyone. The staff were very accommodating, particularly as we had some changes to the number in our party. The location of the B & B was excellent in terms of Mondellos main centre. Everything was within walking distance.
Review 52:Whats not to like.???
Review 53:Fabulous place to stay. Great accommodation, friendly staff, and right in the town center. Not pretentious nor flashy, just as it should be and as it was advertised.
Review 54:The gentleman who checked me in didn't give me much information -E.G. the first I heard about the rooftop solarium was when writing thisreview and I saw someone else's mention it! Nothing to do with theB&B but Mondello beach, though lovely, is spoilt by a lot of litterand the restaurants are over-priced and not very good.
Review 55:Great location, close to Piazza Mondello but not right on the mainstreet. Rooms are nice. Some have balconies. Mine didn't but therewas a pleasant verandah just outside my room. They provide a kettle andtea and coffee, only the 2nd time I've come across that in Italy.Being summer I thought it could get noisy at night but with the aircongoing there was no problem. They also provide free bikes and beachumbrellas. I thought it was excellent value for money.
Review 56:The hotel is very nice, located very close to the beach - like 2 minutes or less. In the rooms you have everything you need: a safe, a TV-set, a conditioner, a hairdryer, towels and also towels for the beach. The staff is so friendly, there were supposed to be three of us, but one of our friends didn't come, the staff helped us to change the room the very same day, so we didn't pay extra money. The room was always clean. We enjoyed our stay very much and for sure will come back again. I will definitely recommend this hotel to all of my friends.
Review 57:Nothing the hotel can do about it, but there are not a lot of good restaurants at Mondello. So if you're looking for a great place to eat, you'll have to make the drive to Palermo. If you're looking for decent quick lunch or dinner, 'Sapori del mare' is ok.
Review 58:Great location (2min walk to the beach), quiet, nice and clean rooms, good breakfast, good wifi, nice staff, … Mondello is a great place if you want to relax a day or two at the beach. That's all there is, actually. Just a tip for future guests: a lot of mosquitos in Mondello, so if you open your window at night, use the screens provided by the hotel (I was happily surprised when i saw that).
Review 59:- Only thing I can mention is that their english is very poor for a touristic island even in Pharmacy.- and if your driving ... good luck with their very narrow streets :) 80% of their cars where damaged,scratched etc.
Review 60:- Very friendly and helpful staff- nice and quiet B&B and it's quite modern - nice breakfasts, hot croissants,juices,coffee ... everything what you need for breakfast - nicely supprised at the and, when we were waiting for a taxi and it was quite warm and sunny outside, they brought us chilled juice FOC and even you could use toilets and shower ( but not in your room ) after you booked out when you had evening flight and wanted to refresh yourself. - Sicily is very nice and absolutely gorgeous scenery with see and mountains We had a nice time in this B&B and we would highly recommend it for anyone.
Review 61:Cant think of anything bad really, it was clean, not luxurious .... but comfortable ...
Review 62:It was a great location, just set back from the piazza. The breakfast was also very good, compared to other places that we stayed on our travels. Staff were friendly, it was very secure.
Review 63:we had booked 2 rooms (2 beds + 3 beds). When we arrived, the host proposed us an apartment instead (unfortunately, for the same price). That was a trap! The apartment was clearly sub-par for the price, and absolutely not practical, noisy, and small. We ask to get back to the two-rooms option the day after, and it was ok. The bed were a little old and squeaky. Not very back-friendly!
Review 64:the location of the hotel is nice, the individual rooms are quite well arranged.
Review 65:The owner of the hotel was very helpful. He gave us a map of Palermo and its surrounding area, and gave us a lot of indications of what to see and what to visit in Palermo.
Review 66:There was not much to not like. It was a little noisy in the rooms fromconstruction and from the street.
Review 67:The location was perfect in Mondello! We were right near the Plaza andwithin a couple feet of the beach. The staff went above and beyond forus. There is a bus that picks up right in Plaza and drops off in Palermoand is very easy to understand even if you do not know Italian. Wouldstay here again if we head come back.
Review 68:The breakfast is excelent and the all staff is very nice. Is easy to reach Palermo, 25-30 min by car or bus.
