My boyfriend and I stayed for 4 nights and it was a perfect base for BA. The location is convenient, about a ten minute walk to the middle of Palermo soho and lots of nice places near the apartment too. It was clean and comfortable, basic and compact but had everything that we needed. It was a bit noisy at times at night. Mabel was a great host, checked in that everything was okay while we were there and very kindly allowed us to keep our baggage in their apartment on our last day while waiting for our flight. They also arranged a taxi to the airport. Overall would recommend as a place to stay!
