Alessandra is the perfect host. Her apartment is brilliant: plenty of room, newly renovated, sparkling clean, and very well located. We felt completely at home there for the week of our stay. The surrounding area has a wonderful pizzeria, wine bar, and other places to eat and drink, and the short walk to the historic centre was a great way to start the day. Alessandra welcomed us – in fact she came to find us when we had the address slightly wrong – with open arms, providing us with plenty of breakfast and other ingredients, as well as plenty of juice and water, which was especially appreciated in the hot Palermo summer weather. This was probably the best airbnb experience we have ever had, and we are very keen to return to Palermo and to stay again at Alessandra's place as soon as possible. She is a truly wonderful host!
