    Old building. but you don't have any other choice if you want to stay at palermo old city. A little difficult to drive there, almost impossible if you have a big car. Too many locks to enter the house.

    Very close to city center, 2nd floor, very spatius. Renovated. Kind and helpful staff. Very important the existence of the garage.

    while getting there by car was a bit of a challenge the apartment was right in the center of old town palermo and as we have been traveling through europe we agree with earlier feedback that it is amazing lots of stairs if you dont use the elevator but we moved our luggage up the elevator and walked the rest fabulous! thanks

    Air-conditioner in living room was weak for that space, so cold air was unreachable.

    Big space, smell of fresh linen, cleanliness, good coffee.

    Bed could be better. It creaks when someone turns around.

    The apartment is located in an excellent location where many of the main attractions of Palermo are within walking distance. The apartment is very spacious and has everything a family or a single person needs. It is bright with high ceilings so it is very airy, making you feel comfortable. It is very well secured so you will feel very safe. A special elevator makes it easy to carry your luggage from the courtyard to the apartment. The owner, Mr. Fluvio, contacted us before we arrived in Palermo and advised us on the easiest way to get from the airport to the apartment. He also gave us tips on what to see, what food to try, where to eat, etc. He is very friendly and accommodating so it is not hard to call him if you need anything. For breakfast there are some croissants, jams and pieces of bread in the apartment. This is for basic if you are hungry right after waking up. Otherwise, you'd better walk a few meters from the apartment to the nearby bakeries, pastry shops or other places where you can get excellent desserts or savory dishes for breakfast. There is also a coffee maker in the apartment, which is very welcome. Overall a great apartment, in a great location and with a friendly owner.

    Very nice apartment in the city heart of Palermo. Apartment is spacious, modern, well equipped and clean. We also really appreciated the check-in process. Roberta who welcomed us was very nice, reactive and helpful. There is parking which is cost 20 Euro per day. Location - near to every main attraction in Palermo. I really sorry for only one night stay.

    Great location and good value for price

    I was asked to make a 30% bank transfer beforehand otherwise my booking would not be guaranteed. This set me a bit off and even made me a bit skeptical because it is not common practice on Booking.com- it even made me doubt it it was a scam of some sort, especially since I never received any confirmation of the transfer. But as all the reviews were positive I went ahead and turned out everything went well. Please just note this aspect and don't be surprised when it happens. Also plan to have some cash to pay on-site, no cards accepted. Yes there is breakfast, but don't expect amazing breakfast even though it says 'breakfast'. It is quite basic (industrial prepacked biscuits, brioche & jam), but again not surprising given the price and that it's an apartment and not a hotel; it was fine for us because I had read the reviews and my expectations were not high.

    I was pleasantly surprised! The apartment is quite big, basic as you would expect for this price but very comfortable, clean and really has all you need. The location was just amazing. It's located on a very nice square with an authentic restaurant where locals also go (highly recommend) while at the same time being very soundproof, you wouldn't hear anything from inside although it's very lively and vibrant outside. And it's just a few min walk to the main touristy area. We also really appreciated the check-in process. Roberta who welcomed us was very nice, reactive and drove along with us to the place to make sure that we would avoid the ZTL with our car (area where you have to pay to drive around). Really nothing I can complain about regarding the apartment!

    It was quit difficuilt communication with owner. Owner wants deposit, I send him deposit, but I didn't get any reply, if it's ok, if he get deposit. But it was ok in the end. I must communicate with three people about our arrival... sofa is a little bit uncomfortable for sleeping.

    Location - near to every main attraction in palermo. If you need, owner has private garage under the apartment. Nice apartment. Communication in english via whatsapp.

    Bathroom does not have a window and is quite dark Toilet seat was way to small for toilet and was made of a soft absorbent material - not very nice or hygienic The mezzanine lift broke down when I was in it. The owner knew it was not working perfectly but suggested I get in it anyway. I then got stuck for about 10 minutes, not a nice experience. Just used the stairs after that.

    Apartment is spacious, modern, well equipped and clean Location is great Secure and felt safe

    the location was prefect, right in the middle of the city and walking distance to everything we wanted to see. they also had parking (very expensive) which was incredibly helpful as there is no parking on the streets near the apartment.

    When we arrived, in the middle of the night, it was very cold inside the room and no hot water. It seems that the heating system was not working and nobody checked it before our arival to make sure everything is ok.

    Very good location, in the old city center area, very close to restaurants, pubs, usual tourist spots, etc. The guy which is managing the property, Pietro, is nice and helpful.

    The apartment was well-equipped and very good for families especially with baby’s as they have enough space to crawl 😉. The apartment is located to many sights in Palermo. We can highly recommend it.

    Great place however missed the two key things I asked for when booking.

    First thing I asked for when booking was a washing machine and it was broken on arrival, also I specified two different rooms and the host gave us one room as they said two people means two beds not two rooms, however this isn't really their decision to make, me and the friend I was travelling with wanted private rooms and I specified two rooms.

    The apartment itself was very large and nice, also each room had an AC, the rating would be much higher if they didn't miss the two main requests I had when booking this place, as they were why I booked in the first place.
