If you would like to explore Palermo & surrounding area, Giovanni's place is the one to go for. It is located perfectly in between the center and the train & bus station (plus, a huge supermarket). As a solo female traveller, I felt safe around the neighborhood since it is right off the main road. The house was well equipped, spotless and everything was new. From check-in to out, Giovanni made it all very smooth and well organized. He was super flexible and took care of my requests which made my trip much smoother :) I could not ask for more! Grazie Giovanni!
