Elisa's place was just marvellous! An excellent location on a vibrant road in the heart of Palermo, but with exceptional sound and light insulation which lead to sleeping better than I do in my own bed! I cannot rate the location enough with the port a short walk away, markets and he Teatro Massimo Vittorio Emanuele at the beginning of the street and a surplus of restaurants and bars on the doorstep.
The apartment is spacious and would sleep 4 more than comfortably. During our stay, we were provided with a full compliment of towels, dressing gowns and slippers as well as tea, fresh coffee and a little bottle of prosecco which was an unexpected but very much appreciated touch from the host.
Getting in to the apartment was seemly and done with ease as Elisa's arranged a driver for us, Adriano, who collected us from the airport and dropped us off with Elisa who showed is in, gave us a small tour on the walk down and some recommendations.
We were glad we had taken Elisa up on the offer of arranging a driver, as the rate was comparable to an uber/ taxi and we were then able to arrange excursions out to Mondello beach and other areas of Sicily with Adriano who was so friendly and also pointed out things out to us on the journey.
Overall, we have an exceptional stay in Elisa's apartment, with the friendliest of people, exceptional value for money and unique position in such a vibrant beautiful city. We are already planning our return!!!
