It is in the heart of Palermo, where you want to be if you want to stay in a safer neighborhood. There are many bars and restaurants around so you can go out and walk back home. Ignacio's home has a great kitchen and a washing machine. The bed is really big and comfortable, we slept really well every night there. The bathroom is also very clean and modern. Plus the communication with Ignacio was really prompt and efficient.
Overall, I highly recommend staying at Ignacio's apartment if you are looking to have a real comfortable home in a foreign city.
