We stayed at Marco's apartment for a week and really enjoyed it! The location is very central and good for exploring the city by foot. It's near the old town and the harbour, and quite near the train station too. There are numerous great restaurants and sights nearby. The arrival from the airport was smooth with a shuttle bus (stop nearby) and Marco provided us with all the essential info for check-in before our arrival. The communication was also otherwise very easy and Marco was quick to answer all of our questions. The apartment itself is fully new/renovated and clean. It has two bedrooms and bathrooms which was very convenient for us as each of us got our own privacy. The beds were nice and new and worked for us well. The air conditioning was working perfectly in the hot Sicilian summer. We also enjoyed the option of washing some of our clothes with the washing machine. The kitchen was great to have and we cooked some meals at the apartment too. Overall a great stay in central Palermo!
