Giovanni’s apartment is a bijou – a gem. We – a couple with teenage daughter – spent 9 days there in the middle of summer and had a great time. Cooling with air conditioning in one bedroom and two fans in the other bedroom and living room were sufficient for us. The location in the Vucciría is simply perfect, you’re close to everything in Palermo. The apartment is on the third floor of an old Palazzo and very spacious with five rooms apart from the entrance, the kitchen and the bath. So my wife who is an early bird could get up in the morning and read in the beautiful living room without waking up my daughter and me in the two bedrooms. Another surplus factor is the very nice floor with different but always beautiful tiles in each room. The only warning goes to people who are sensitive to noise: the Vucciría is becoming a party neighborhood and it can get quite loud at night, especially on Fridays and Saturdays. The good thing however is that the bedrooms go out to the palazzo’s courtyard with the impressive Ficus tree; from the living room window you can take a look at the party-goers. Unfortunately we never met Giovanni in person, but there was never a problem, so it wasn’t necessary.
