Fernando offers a nice, spacious, bright, very secure apartment on the 3rd floor of a traditional, mid-19th century building. There is air conditioning throughout, 2 accessible balconies and an enclosed, private patio accessible from the kitchen. There are 2 large, recently renovated bathrooms: one with a walk-in shower and the other with a bath and shower. There is a small, modern, fairly well-equipped kitchen with a gas hob, electric oven and a large fridge freezer. The flat is ideally situated in the lively Ballarò district, near to many attractions; including the ‘Quattro Canti’ crossroads, the Vucciria historical centre and the Teatro Massimo. Fernando is always available to contact via WhatsApp for information and suggestions. He even booked us a taxi as we arrived late in the evening. We followed much of Fernando’s advice and visited Monreale and Monte Pellegrino by bus. We also visited Agrigento (the Valley of the Temples) and Cefalù beach by train. My wife and I stayed for 3 weeks and enjoyed our time immensely. We were joined by my son and brother-in-law for the middle week. They too enjoyed their visit to this fascinating city and area. The flat can easily accommodate 6 people very comfortably. We would have no hesitation in recommending this flat, an ideal base for discovering Palermo and the surrounding area.
