We had a really comfortable and enjoyable stay in Sicily which began with a very friendly welcome by Daniele and Valentina, who helped familiarise us with everything in the apartment. The apartment is attractive, really well laid out and equipped with everything we needed (and everything was in good working order). The balcony, despite not having much of a view, was a great bonus. I had thought that we might be overwhelmed with traffic noises, being so close to the Piazza Indipendenza, but this was not the case as the apartment does not face the road. For a visit to the Norman Palace and for catching a bus for trips out of Palermo, you can’t get a better location, and the walk into the very centre of Palermo is not far, passing through Porta Nuova and past the Cathedral. Happy to recommend this apartment!
