Stello and Carolina met us in front of a parking space in the square in front of the apartment. They greeted us with prosciutto and melon, fresh fruit and a personalized tour of the apartment. It was one of the warmest greetings we have ever received. The apartment itself is in a fantastic location within easy walking distance of all the major sites in the old city as well as the markets and shopping area. We stayed for 5 nights and never had to use our car. The apartment is beautifully decorated with original floor tiles and extra touches such as local ceramics and art. The rooms are large and airy. The host made sure that everything you need for a comfortable stay is provided including laundry detergent, coffee, milk, tea, clothes hangers, quality bathroom amenities - you name it. It was like staying in a suite in a luxury hotel and yet you are in the middle of a square in Palermo with all the great street life and food at your doorstep. However, when you want quiet you close the shutters and the place is silent. It was a fantastic stay and we highly recommend this apartment to anyone visiting Palermoo.
