This is a fantastic apartment in the center of Palermo in the old city. We walked around the city using this apartment as our base and saw major landmarks and sites. Giovanni met us at the apartment and gave us a complete tour and explained everything about the apartment, which has been in his family for several generations. We are a large family with 3 couples and a 7th person and there was plenty of room. The bedrooms are gorgeous with high ceilings with wooden beams. The place is filled with art and antiques. There were bathrooms off of two of the bedroooms and two more bathrooms - one off the hallway and one on the top floor with the living room/kitchen. All completely modern and newly renovated. The kitchen was well equipped with coffee and biscuits, lots of water, and fruit. We didn't need to bring in supplies for the basics in the morning. Giovanni goes the extra mile to explain on a map of the city, his favorite spots to eat and gave directions to the monuments, Cattidral di Palermi, the Norman Palace, and the the outdoor markets. One of the most beautiful buildings is Santa Maria dell’Ammiraglio or San Nicolò dei Greci, which goes by the nickname Martorana, with exquisite mosaics, and the Duomo of Monreale. He also met us as we were checking out and overall was a wonderful, kind host.
