Albergo Verdi

I can only say one good thing about this hotel and that it was very clean. But it was up two flights of steep stairs and in the heart of - and above - the restaurant and nightlife area. My bed was very uncomfortable; a rather wobbly iron frame with a piece of hardboard covering it, on top of which was a mattress. The sheets and pillow cases were very clean but the cover was very thin and shabby. After the first morning we went out for breakfast as here it consisted of way too much sugar - even by Italian standards and was, I thought, expensive for what we were given. But...the worst experience was the relentless noise. All night with no respite. Very loud music from the bars and people wandering the streets. We didn't sleep at all for 3 nights. We stayed at two other places in different parts of Sicily, both of which were just wonderful, but I'm afraid I would never go back to, or recommend the Verdi.
