As mentioned in other reviews, the Loft Politeama is well located in Palermo as many of the tourist sights are within walking distance. The hosts arranged for transportation from the airport which is recommended. There is a very narrow staircase at the top floor leading to the apartment so you may need assistance if you have a big suitcase. There is a stop nearby for the City Sightseeing bus that we used during our stay to explore Palermo. The port is within walking distance which can be an advantage if you take the ferry to another destination. The apartment is spacious and comfortable. We used the little balcony for our breakfast which was quite pleasant. In summary, we enjoyed our stay at the Loft Politeama!
