It is a private room with its own bathroom in the flat. The flat is in an old style Italian building. The furniture is in good condition and the bed was so comfortable. The street where the apartment is located is not so fancy but streets around the city centers are all the same in Italy. So I can say this is a compromise of staying at a flat in the city center. It is just 1 min. far from teatro massimo where the area pedonale starts. You can reach all the touristic points of the city by foot from the flat. At the end it is a nice apartment for that price in the city center.
The owner is very friendly and helpful. He called bus companies to get information for my next trips in Sicily. You can ask him whatever you want. He is always reachable and always ready to reply your questions.
