Ivana was a great hostess over our 3 night stay. Her communication was excellent and she was always a short Whtaspp message away. She met us at the building (despite our ever changing schedule) and helpfully arranged for a taxi to collect us from Palermo airport. In hindsight, I would use the airport shuttle (which we used on our return to Palermo airport), as its very efficient and stops really close to her place.
We really loved the selection of local Sicilian almond cookies she had waiting for us!
The apartment is very centrally located, with historic Palermo sights within easy walking distance. All rooms were air-conditioned and we were really comfortable even on the hottest days in August. Bedrooms are on 2 different levels which worked well for us, as it mean't our 2 teenage sons had there own private space. Our boys appreciated the superfast internet connection (>100mb/s!!). We didn't really prepare any food in the apartment, but the kitchen seemed well equipped. There are plenty of lovely local eateries at all price points just around the corner so there was no need. Would highly recommend.
