We were Andrea and Alessia's first guest, and our experience couldn't have been more wonderful. We were welcomed with cookies, wine, and exceptional warmth and friendliness. I'm a host myself—I've had over 100 guests—so you can believe me when I say they are suburb!

The apartment is as gorgeous as it looks in the photos. When we booked, we thought "this must be too good to be true"… but it's not! The ceilings are ridiculously high, the decor beyond stylish, and the beds comfortable. The building is a bit care-worn (as is all of Palermo), but its former grandeur is all the more striking with a some character of age. The view over the skyline of Palermo, dotted with domes, is sublime.

The location is convenient. It's located on a street that during the day is a pedestrian-only road, which after dealing with Palermo traffic is a welcome change! It's a 5 minute walk from Chiesa della Martorana, and a 15 minute walk from Teatro Massimo.

This booking was the highlight of all of our apartments on our 2 week trip through Sicily. I will be recommending it to anyone I know who will be making the trip. 11 out of 10 stars!
