We spent a very pleasant five-day stay at appartment Casamassimo.
On our arrival, we were greeted by Claudia`s husband with a nice bottle of wine and some

tasty pieces of pizza. Furthermore, we were given plenty of information about the

historical sites to see in the city. These sites were very close to the apartment and

within walking distance. The nightlife is centred in the street on the opposite side of

the apartment and at night in the famous fish market. The nightlife is really to be

experienced as the dancing takes place amongst the ruins of the old town. If you like

seafood Palermo is the place to be. We were surprised on how safe we felt in Palermo and

how cheap it was too.

The apartment itself is really large, nicely decorated and clean. The big terrace at the

rear of the apartment was an additional plus. There is a lovely balcony off the living

room. The only drawback for some might be the noise from the street below in the front

bedroom. This, however, was not a problem for us on the basis we wanted to hear the

nightlife and are heavy sleepers. If the bedroom was too noisy, there was a large sofa in

the sitting room where one could sleep and almost hear nothing. The rear bedroom is very

quite.

We were really satisfied with our stay in Palermo and it was partly thanks to the great

apartment we stayed in and the hospitality of our hosts. We would really recommend this

apartment and will visit again.
