The apartment is fantastic.

Firstly the location is perfect - right in the middle of Palermo Soho. 10 mins walk one way to Plaza Serrano with all the bars and about 8 mins walk the other way to Plaza Italia to catch the Subte, and also to Palermo's parks. Plus in the streets surrounding the apartment are lots of restaurants, ice-cream places, and cool shops. There is a supermarket next door, and also a large cheaper one round the corner so easy to shop.

The apartment also has someone at reception 24 hours so we always felt safe coming and leaving the apartment block. And also has a busy restaurant and a hotel on the same street so was never too deserted. The whole area is relatively safe too. We were always able to catch a cab from the surrounding streets very easily.

The apartment itself has everything you could need and is exactly as pictured. Stylishly decorated, very clean when we arrived, hot shower and jacuzzi bath, very comfortable bed and pillows, AC which also could warm the apartment up, Wifi, and also local numbers were free to call from the phone if we needed to arrange anything. We also got two sets of towels each on arrival which was a nice touch. There's also a large enough fridge with a small freezer compartment, and enough plates and utensils and glasses for two people.

We were there over new year's and my wife had a fantastic time and loved the apartment, as did I. We chose it based on location as well as condition, and were not disappointed. 100% recommended.
