The best thing about the apartment is it’s location and gorgeous roof terrace that’s perfect for an afternoon chill and breakfast in the sun. The apartment is clean but very basic and could use some improvements (like replacing the shower door that’s missing). The location is very central in the heart of Palermo’s old town and it’s super easy to walk to everywhere in the area… but unfortunately we have not been able to sleep at all.
We chose to book the studio based on the location and its amazing reviews, but we did not expect that the ‘lively’ square (maybe restaurant chatter and some live music until midnight?) would actually be a monstrous and crowded festival every night with a VERY LOUD party attended by hundreds of people dancing and singing to live music UNTIL 4 AM in the morning. Not to mention the sound of cleaning up all of the glass bottles every morning after all this.
We survived 4 nights like that and it really affected our visit to Palermo. We were really tired in the morning and it impacted our mood throughout the day, as we got no sleep at all. And no, we were not in the mood of joining the party, knowing that we wouldn’t get some rest back the following night, when the party starts after 23:00 and continues until 4:00 each night + the cleaners from 4:00 till 5:00-6:00 every morning…
This is the review I wish I had seen before booking this place. If you’re coming to party that’s a perfect place for you tho.
