Fernanda's place was a perfect home base for the two of us, and Fernanda was a wonderful host. She was not there in person, but she was extremely communicative and fast to respond to any questions or comments. Check in/out was easy. We coordinated a time and and individual met us to swap the keys. Fernanda was available to us via WhatsApp, but gave us all the space we wanted. She even helped us figure out the Futbol situation and gave other great advice.
The listing does an excellent job of setting expectations. The living area was a nice size, though we didn't spend much time there. The balcony was small, but enjoyable. We were able to enjoy coffee in the morning and a glass of wine out there in the evenings. The bedroom was comfortable. There was a little street noise, even with the metal shades drawn, but not more than any other city in the world.
Two wall unit air conditioners did a good job of keeping the place cool while we were home. It would be hot when we returned from the day but I was able to sleep comfortably after running AC for a bit.
Again the bathroom worked well. Strong shower pressure, towels and soap provided. One very minor inconvenience is that the sink is small and under a counter, so it can be a little cramped to wash one's face, for example. Similarly, the kitchen was stocked. We mostly used it from making coffee, filling our water bottles, and refrigerating a few items.
The location was perfect too. We were able to walk most of Palermo, which had a ton of food, cafes, parks, etc. In all, the apartment was decorated nicely with a good attention to detail. (We loved having the plants in the living room and balcony!) It felt great to come home after long days of exploring the city. We would highly recommend Fernanda's place to any pair of travelers.
