The building is absolutely new. The nice apartment is great, located in the very center of Palermo. You can reach most places of interest by foot. We traveled by car and it was great for us that we could park in the spacious and safe parking of the apparent building. Aldo is a very nice person and welcomed us warmly. He offered us lots of tipps on where to go to eat, what to visit, and on specific questions (opera, hairdresser etc.). Thanks a lot for everything, Aldo!
