Linda's apartment is in a lively neighborhood of Palermo and to our pleasant surprise just a couple blocks from a market area, which transforms at night to become a late night hot spot where a man fries and grills up fresh seafood to order.
It does get pretty loud starting around 11 pm through the early morning hours, since there are restaurants and bars just below the apartment, but Linda and other reviewers warned us ahead of time, but the apartment was worth it to us. Linda does provide ear plugs if you choose to use them.
While there isn't air conditioning in the apartment, they do have three medium sized fans which helped during the night. There are two small, but nice balconies to enjoy the view of a marina just down the way or if you want to take a passive approach to the nightlife and enjoy it from above.
