What a wonderful time I had living in this well-appointed flat in the Palermo district. I arrived mid-morning due to my overnight flight from Ecuador, and met Eugenia and her helper as they were cleaning the apt. I needed to find a phone store to purchase a SIM card and she graciously gave me a map and told me exactly how to find it.
By the time I returned a couple hours later, the place was spotless and I happily settled in. The neighborhood has anything and everything you could want = lots of little cafes, restaurants, retail shops..... Two of my favorites were Bar du Marche and Decata. The subway to city center is about a half mile walk and easy to navigate. This is the perfect place for one or two people. The little terrace was comfortable for a breakfast drink, or a glass of wine at the end of the day. There is a rooftop pool but I had no time to use it. The photos posted are realistic and the queen size bed is really comfortable. The tv was a little tricky to navigate as it is internet driven to connect with Netflix, and I never did find a way to see an international news station i.e. BBC or CNN. Not a big deal, but if that is important and you are not technically savvy, like myself, you might want to have this explained. On a more detailed note, if you're used to using a washcloth for your face, bring one with you. As in many other countries, washcloths are not provided - just hand and bath towels. Eugenia is amiable and extremely helpful and I recommend her place with no reservations. I wish I could have stayed longer than my five days allocated. Thank you!!
