Our stay on at Salvatore’s was just wonderful. The apartment is on one of the most beautiful squares of Palermo and, therefore, safe and convenient to all touring sites, restaurants and shops. The terrace is just as on the picture with a stunning 360 view. The decoration is stylish and fresh with an art gallery look to it and a mix of period and contemporary quality furniture. The flat is a kind of triplex with various levels of smaller volumes that feel very private and comfortable; a lot of stairs which was fine with us (hence the view etc.) Salvatore, the owner, is incredibly charming, affectionate and sociable. He was out-of-town on a work assignment most of my week but he had a friend who is also super welcoming, kind and attentive check me in and help every moment of my stay. One night, there was a severe thunderstorm and we lost part of the power in the flat. They drove 15 miles at 1 AM to make sure the issue was identified and to bring all systems back to normal and treated us to a bottle of wine to make up for an incident which could not be helped. As I liked my experience so much, I asked a couple of my friends to join me in Palermo. I asked for permission naturally, which was granted enthusiastically and for a very modest fee. Salvatore and Giacomo were as kind and benevolent to my friends as they were to me. I now regard them as good friends. Sum total, the experience was a pure delight and I highly recommend Salvatore’s apartment to anyone who wants the prefect place to enjoy the incomparable life of this uniquely beautiful and significant city.
