Mariela was a great host! She was very flexible with our check in and check out times and since she lives in the back was easily accessible if we needed anything. The apartment itself was perfect for my boyfriend and I who stayed there for two weeks. The apartment is located in a great location, within a ten minute walk to the heart of Palermo, walking distance to the subway, and is a safe neighborhood to walk around at night. I would most definitely recommend staying in this very charming Palermo apartment!
