Giovanna and her husband were great hosts. Unfortunately I did not get a chance to meet Giovanna as I only stayed briefly for one night but I did speak to her on the phone about a date mix up that was my fault. She was very kind and sorted it out with ease, her English is impeccable. Antonio greeted me and made me feel welcome and gave me some helpful tips about the area and exploring Palermo. Giovanna and Antonio's place is in a great location and it is very authentic in terms of the interior design. Their apartment is true to the original style of the building and if you want to stay in an authentic, comfortable, apartment which is centrally located with good people these hosts are recommended. Thanks both.
