It was our first Aibnb experience and it turned out to be a wonderful start.
Alberto and Carla was always quick to answer us and helped us how to get to the apartment from the Central Station, as we arrived from Catania by train.
Alberto was waiting for us with his family and were very nice and keen to show everything in the apartment. We got fresh oranges and a bottle of mineral water as a welcome gift. They gave us a map and some advice about the city.
The apartment is completely refurbished recently. Everything from the bathroom through the kitchen to the last piece of furniture is brand new and are in a very good condition. The flat was crystal clean as we arrived.
It is fully equipped from forks to the hair drier. The kitchen is ready to have cooking for a three course lunch. As the Ballaro market is very close, next time we will use this advantage.
It is on the fourth floor with a nice balcony (where we could smoke) and a good view. The building has an elevator which is very comfortable with lots of luggage.
The apartment is only a hundred meters from Teatro Massimo, and its location is unbeatable: in the middle of historic downtown, 15 mins walk from most of the major attraction. We were quite happy that we could even have a break (like a siesta) in the midday to sit down, have a shower or just change our clothes.
And of course: Palermo is fabulous...
This was the best possible start for us in the world of Airbnb. Thanks for it, Alberto and Carla again.
