We stayed in this lovely place, way up in the hills of Monreale, the last two nights of a longer visit to Sicily. It is situated perfectly to explore the western half of the island. The apartments are modern and well-kept and offer spectacular views of Palermo and the sea. Carmelo, was charming and helpful. One small complaint was noise at night. One evening, some near-by dogs were holding a loud conversation. Another night, humans were doing the same. But generally, thumbs up.
