Carlos place is ok. Just ok. The place itself is cute, the historic flavor suits it. We were drawn to it because famous writers used to live in it. Unfortunately, the cleanliness was lacking. It was very dusty, like it was ages since someone moved the futon or the bed to clean underneath. We put a sheet on the futon just to be able to use it because it smelled musty and was dusty. There was also a lot of mold on the ceiling and on the shower walls, which is not safe for anyone to breathe.
The location is very centric. it’s nice once you go a few blocks out but keep in mind the street the apartment is on seems pretty sketchy. The post says ‘self check-in’ which is not true. We had to wait 30min someone to give us the keys. We were told that it was due streets filled with people celebrating. But they should have accounted for that and the host apologized for the wait. I wouldn’t come back. For that price you can find a nicer place in Palermo.
