This apartment is one of the best reasons I will return to Palermo. After doing careful research for hotels and other apts on Airbnb I booking got this right!:-) Ivan attended to my every need! Everything gets a 10/10. It is in a gorgeous building, clean, modern, great internet speed, blinds to block out sunlight, quiet yet in the absolute heart of it all! 10 mins walk to teatro massimo, footsteps away from one of the most beautiful baroque churches in Palermo and surrounded by the pedestrian street for shopping. Just below is a restaurant serving breakfast lunch and dinner at very affordable prices, good quality that suits any traveller's budget. The hot chocolate was yummy! Ivan even offered car transportation for me to and from the airport which was cheaper than getting a taxi and better than the bus especially as I arrived late at night. Ivan is always available and really takes care of you. I definitely felt cared for as a female traveling alone. I would return in a heartbeat!
