I just came back for 8 days in BS As. I stayed in the Cristoforo Colombo Hotel Which I have reserved on the internet. The room was very poor compared with the pictures.Everything was old.Thanks to the cleaning ladies the room was O.K. to sleep.Everytime I did ask for a place to go they sent you to the most expensive place and no choices were given such as show with or without meals.We know how bad the food is type of combinations-- shows and food-- The hotel is in Palermo which is far from all must see places.I asked this question before my trip and I did not get help.If you go to BS As you must go to the central area.I will not recommend this hotel.People in BsAs is living big time from tourist, so everyone wants a bite. The taxis are among the most honest in the world after Japan.People are very nice. I will go back there many times.
