This apartment is very conveniently and centrally located near the Cathedral and various other interesting sites, and the main pedestrian shopping streets. It was clean and well appointed with some conveniences (towel warmers, etc.), and had very charming decorative touches on the walls. It was very pleasant to stay in, in an unpretentious way.
Though Ro was out of town, her father was extremely courteous and helpful in picking us up in his car at the train station -- it was pouring rain that evening -- and taking us to the apartment, then showing us where various pleasant restaurants nearby were located, and even taking us in to a charming trattoria and making sure we got a table. He was also available and responsive by message or phone afterward, calling a taxi for us to take us back to the train station when we left. We're sorry we didn't get to meet Ro, but we appreciated that everything we needed was provided for. We definitely recommend this apartment -- we had an enjoyable experience there, and found it a fine base from which to discover the very interesting city of Palermo.
