Excellent apartment right around the corner from Teatro Massimo! All the major sights in Palermo are within walking distance, as are the train and bus stations. We used the apartment as base camp for day trips in the region, and it was very convenient. We didn't meet Silvia in person, but she was great at keeping in touch, and her apartment is beautifully decorated. We enjoyed spending mornings and evenings on the rooftop terrace. Highly recommend!
