Cristian's place is a great little place to stay in whilst visiting Palermo. The place was extremely clean and homely, and Cristian takes time to meet you there at your arrival and gives you a very friendly tour of the apartment. The balcony and terrace are great places to relax when you've been on your feet all day and the flat decor makes you feel like you're living like a Sicilian rather than a tourist. Being just out of the centre of Palermo gives you the great opportunity to try out local & less touristy restaurants (sciuscia at the bottom of the road is great for Pizza and La Tends Rossa is great for typical Sicilian Cuisine). However the centre is only a short 15 min train ride or 20 min walk away.
