Andrea was a great host - communication was super easy and he was very responsive even before I had actually made the booking... I arrived in the morning and Adnrea met me outside the apartment and helped me carrying my bags upstairs (what a gentleman !) ... The house itself is fantastic, I travel on Airbnb all the time and I am used to staying in great places but this is one of the best apartments I have ever stayed: First of all the place is HUGE (it's so big that I didn't even use one of the bedrooms)... it also has a great terrace where you can relax or sipping your morning coffee...Another great thing about this place is the location: am originally from Palermo so I knew the area really well, the location is absolutely perfect... only a block away from the park (great for taking your kids or your dog) and super close to everything (shopping, pharmacies, cinemas, supermarkets). I like this area because you are close to both the old city center and the newer areas (plus, Mondello beach is really not that far) and even walking around at night the neighbor felt very safe, so it's great for women traveling alone. Checking out was also seamless (I left the keys on the table and locked door behind me). If you are planning a trip to Palermo I would definitely stay here - Andrea thanks again for everything, we will be back soon for sure. Ciao !
