First of all let’s get the noise issue out of the way. As identified in the listing the apartment is situated In a very busy street, and directly above a pub in particular. If you are sensitive to noise then this place is probably not for you so probably best to look elsewhere. On the other hand, if you want to be right in centre of the action in Palermo, close to most of the main sightseeing sites, and love people watching then the apartment is ideally situated.
The apartment itself is accurately repressed in the photos and has a very comfortable bed.
It is also extremely secure with triple action bolts on the door and extremely solid steel cage doors over the window/balcony area. Having said that we didn’t feel at all uncomfortable in the neighbourhood.
Communication with Alessandro was very responsive, and a smooth key handover with Alessandro’s colleague Marco.
