Excellent place! Will be back! Ignazio was fast to respond and very helpful and accommodating to my check-in needs. The apartment is very centrally located, right off a charming piazza in historic Palermo, and very close to the lively, happening Teatro Massimo area. It is on the 4th floor of a walk-up building that is very old and provides a great insight into what life is like for Palermitani. It's very clean and comfortable (the main bedroom's bed is soft and springy). The A/C was not very powerful for American standards, but the apartment was kept cool with the help of a fan in the bedroom, and even in hot July, I slept comfortably. There is a lovely small balcony off the bedroom, too, from which you can observe life on the street and see the Orologio church. The kitchen is serviceable, has coffee maker, small fridge and sink, and has a dinner table that could seat 4-6. Host lives right next-door on the same floor and was available for any issues. Loved it!
