It was very easy to communicate with Emanuele, his English is wonderful. The apartment is wonderful with the sun streaming in through the french windows in the morning, very spacious and with a well equipped kitchen. The beds are comfortable and there were enough blankets to survive the cooler Palermo nights in December. We never turned on the heating. Via Alloro is located very Central. Everything is at walking distance. The magnificent Abetello Museum is 100 meters down the street. The neighbourhood is lively and friendly, with many funky little stores, besides a tiny grocery store, a bakery and a vegetable seller up the road. We felt very much at home in Emanuele's apartment>
