We had a wonderful time in this apartment, the view from the balcony is beautiful, and it is not overlooked. The apartment was very clean and well furnished, and looks bigger in real life than the photos. The shower is powerful and easy to work, and there is a gas hob for cooking.
The location was ideal, very close to the cathedral and Quattro Canti, which meant we could pop back easily at any time in the day. Because of its height, the apartment was quiet during the night, but the square below was delightful in the day.
Luigi is an excellent host, he met us on arrival to show us the apartment and give us a map with all kinds of excellent advice about buses, restaurants, shops etc, but then left us to get on with our holiday, with ample contact details in case we needed him. I would definitely recommend this apartment to couples or solo travellers wanting to explore Palermo and the surrounding areas (we visited Mondello and Monreale easily.) We had the most refreshing and relaxing holiday, and the apartment was definitely a large part of that.
