If you want a beautiful, romantic and unique experience of staying or living in Palermo, this is the place! The sounds of Italy, it's passion is particularly beautiful. The apartment is on the 3rd floor of a 15th century palace and looks out the most beautiful Ficus more than 500 years old. It's a spectacular tree that sits in the centre of the palace grounds. It also looks out onto the back of the church of San Domenico is the second most important church of Palermo and a couple of minutes walk to the port and the Viccuria market.
Everything in the apartment is perfect if you want an authentic experience of the history of Palermo and wonderfully adorned with well looked after modernist 1960's furniture and crockery. The bedding and linen is very clean and the pillows are so comfortable! As you may read I LOVED staying at Giovanni's, I adored the atmosphere and will stay here again and again. Giovanni is a brilliant host who I would now call a friend after staying nearly two weeks in Surplus Charming Apartment. I can only say wonderful things.
