Location-wise, the apartment is very central and walkable to almost everything in Palermo. The apartment is extremely spacious and well-designed - with two split level bedrooms and a very large master bathroom that has a walk-in shower and his and her sinks. My friend and I did a ‘work from home’ week and we were very happy with the fast Wi-Fi and the spacious dining room area, which we used for work. Our two pain points with the Airbnb were: 1) parking and host handling of parking issues: we originally requested 3 nights to park our rental car. There is a gated parking lot in the back - which the host charges €15 per night for. The 1st night, we had issues getting the car - so we didn’t use the spot and informed the host. When we got the car, it was unbelievably hard to find and park it in the allocated lot (note: my friend is Italian and I have also lived in Italy before, so we are used to driving in the country): on a general note, driving in Palermo is extremely hazardous and the city is filled with bad drivers who don’t know how to drive in a civilized manner. On a more specific note, apple/google maps don’t pick up on the ZIT (prohibited car access) areas and we were constantly trying to reroute ourselves. Moreover, the streets leading to the parking lot are narrow 1-way pedestrian and restaurant-crowded alleys: extremely tight, there were only a few inches on either side of the car when slowly trying to squeeze through. Once we finally found the parking lot and parked in it, we discovered that the host had not given us a back door key to the building (and even if they did - there was no keyhole to use), so we ended up parking on the street right in front of the apartment to avoid the 10+ min walk from the parking lot to the front door. The next day, we dropped the car off end of day because of how bad the parking situation was. We made sure to update the host right away with what was going on. Instead of being understanding, they got very annoyed despite it being mostly out of our control. They claimed that could have given the spot to someone else but the parking lot was 80% empty the full week we were there (we can see it from the window) - so that argument seemed a bit silly. Overall, we would have preferred the host’s helpers to be more sympathetic and understanding towards our parking issues vs. being a bit rude and only caring about making extra profit. Finally - Issue #2: we experienced a bit of paranormal activity within the apartment. I woke up on 2 separate nights to a girl standing in the corner of the master bedroom - and then disappearing. The other nights, I felt a very strange presence in the apartment - like someone was watching us. Some of the portraits in the apartment were a bit strange - and added to the weird and unsettling vibe. Please note - that this was a work vacation - and we didn’t drink or do anything that would cause hallucinations. I got so creeped out at one point - I almost flew home early, but was thankfully able to sleep after my friend agreed to share the master with me. In summary, the apartment is in a great location (for walking) and is well-designed, very spacious, and is very quiet, despite being only 300m from all the action. If you have a car, come at your own risk and prepare to find street parking. If you’re sensitive to paranormal activity, then this apartment isn’t for you.
