We enjoyed our stay in Daniela's apartment. Her place is homey and comfortable with tasteful decor and several interesting books on Sicily and Palermo. The apartment is conveniently located within a short walking distance to several major historic sites and about 15 minutes on foot to the airport bus station. As it is near to a lively street with bars, it can get noisy on weekend nights (ear plugs would come in handy for light sleepers). We were there in winter and it was too chilly to hang out on the rooftop terrace - which is probably nice to use in warmer weather. For future travellers who are driving to the apartment, it is useful to note that the apartment is located in a restricted driving zone in the historic area. You will need to get a ZTL pass to drive into the area for most part of the week (details can be found on the internet).
