I went to Palermo backpacking on my own - on a budget and I LOVED the place. It is in the centre of absolutely everything. I absolutely fell in love with the church square right in front of the house especially in the evenings - local people celebrating life, excellent food. Incredible prizes. No trip advisor recommendations simply because there are next to no tourists! There are people who take their drinking water from the community fountain there, too. During the day there is a flee-market (people sell washing machines, hair brushes ...) which develops straight into the famous fruit and fish market (AGAIN EXCELLENT FOOD!!!!!). The atmosphere is very authentic.It reminded me a lot of Havanna. I loved it! And I absolutely loved the apartment. Tiziana is a super host, too! THANK YOU!!!!
