Staying at Roberta's apartment was an excellent experience. She arranged to both pick me up and drop me off at the airport which was incredibly helpful since my departure flight was early in the morning. I arrived to a freshly cleaned apartment that was filled with sun, fresh mineral water, cookies, and juice. She provided me with a map filled with suggestions on good local places to eat, get coffee or gelato.
The apartment itself was perfect for me. It was very quiet, had a beautiful terrace, and was a short walk to the centro storico. You can see Teatro Massimo from outside the building. I very much enjoyed waking up early and eating breakfast on the terrace and enjoying the morning breeze and sun. There are plenty of stores on the street outside the building in case you want to buy groceries, street food, or gelato. I would definitely stay with Roberta again on my next visit to Palermo.
