Review by hotel critic
B&B Vicolo IV is a charming retreat in a pedestrian-only alley, offering a peaceful respite in Ortigia, Sicily. My stay in one of the cozy upstairs rooms was pleasant, albeit slightly cramped. The room was thoughtfully equipped for short stays, but lack of hot water for showers was a disappointing oversight. The hosts' limited English posed minor challenges, yet Marco's exceptional hospitality and Giovanni's proactive assistance shone through, making for a memorable experience.Regrettably, the B&B was undergoing refurbishment, leading to a missed breakfast and inconveniences. However, the strategically located property near the vibrant market and the attentive staff compensated for these shortcomings. The genuine care displayed by the staff, exemplified by immediate espresso service and the organization of practical arrangements, was commendable.While B&B Vicolo IV offers a comfortable stay with its well-appointed rooms and convenient amenities, the value proposition may be questioned due to the service disruptions during refurbishment. For a practical traveler seeking a balance between cost and luxury, the heartfelt hospitality and central location might outweigh the temporary inconveniences.
