The piazza has plenty of restaurants & shops, although a bit touristy (we were still able to find delicious Nero davola wine, and local dishes at I Leone). Walking a couple blocks radius further away from the piazza brought us to more local bakeries, cafes, and restaurants. My husband and I booked this room for 1 night in order to be close to the Palermo airport (Terrasini is only 13k away) at the end of our Sicily trip, and it turned out to be a gem! Also included were small fridge in the room, TV, AC, soap/shampoo, towels, hairdryer, wardrobe, & dresser. There is a small, clean shared kitchen down the hall. The owner was very friendly and available, check in starts nice & early (12:30pm), and checking out earlier than requested was not a problem.

Where should we begin? This place has the absolute best combination of everything a smart and…read moreworldly traveler could ever want. The owner and host Francesco, is the best B&B host we have ever experienced. He is passionate about what Palermo and his B&B have to offer. The location is in the city, but outside the old historic center so there is parking available near the unit for you to park your car and leave it during your entire stay. There is also frequent bus transportation to the historic center and other parts of town within 3 blocks. Because it is a residential area you have very good restaurants close by. No horrible touristic menus to be found anywhere near here. The unit itself is extremely comfortable. It is on the 12th floor - a penthouse and has an amazing terrace outside of the unit with an additional very large terrace on the 13th floor above it. There are commanding views of the entire city from the terraces. The room itself is well appointed with dark wood wainscoting and floors and tasteful decor. The ensuite bathroom is incredibly large for an inner-city room and includes an oversized soaking bathtub and a separate large shower. The WiFi worked very well in the unit and nearby terrace just outside the room. Francesco, is incredibly hospitable. He takes much pride in providing exceptional service to his guests. The suggestions of what sites to visit, how best to arrive there, where to eat and anything else you can think of in the city are extremely helpful. Breakfasts are without compare to other bed and breakfast locations. Francesco caters them specifically to your wishes. This is not a cookie cutter breakfast, it is made with great care and the desire to please. We requested some savory meats and cheeses and were surprised to find a perfectly ripe cherry tomato salad, delicious caponata, calzone with local bread, prosciutto, home grown basil and fresh mozzarella along with fresh fruit, fresh squeezed juice and yogurt. A schiacciata (sp?) of cooked ham and cheese was also included - enough for breakfast, lunch and more! We stayed two nights and felt very comfortable here. The privacy of being the only guests is great! We felt pampered. We highly recommend Attic 12 to savvy travelers who want to experience Palermo from a local's perspective.

I would certainly recommend staying here if you are coming to Agrigento to see The Valley of the Temples. The staff do a wonderful job making sure you have a nice breakfast prepared each morning, the only hiccup was when I asked for Tea and got a lovely cappuccino, after some awkward moments I used Google Image search to show what I wanted. The poor staff member was embarrassed and quickly put the kettle on and found some tea bags in the cupboard. I had a lovely nights sleep here and the bathroom was good and the rooms were a good size. It was very peaceful at night and I ended up hanging out upstairs taking some photos of the night sky.
