Giovanni has been an excellent host ever since I first made the reservation several months ago, with general advice and information about arrival, transport, sightseeing, shopping, restaurants etc., and helpful advice about particular questions about my time in Palermo.
The apartment is in a recently renovated older building on the coast road, but looking onto a charming and quiet garden at the back replete with beautiful swimming pool, so road noise was minimal.
The area is post-war suburban social and other housing, but with easy access into the centre of town, and with some lovely bars, shops and restaurants very close by. T
