Sofia’s apartment was great. The location is within walking distance of several restaurants within Palermo. The apartment is exactly as shown in the pictures and the gated entrance was also good. Sofia was always available for questions and even provided recommendations for some random request such as helping me find a birthday cake and best markets for grocery shopping. The apartment is also 5 minutes from a laundromat with was great for a longer term stay. She also had cleaning supplies available and offered a cleaning service, if needed.
