We had a wonderful experience in Valentina's home. The apartment is beautiful, very conveniently located in Palermo, and had all the amenities we needed. Valentina and Daniele greeted us on our arrival and were very friendly and welcoming. We were impressed with how kindly they accommodated our travel schedule (our planes both to and from Palermo left quite late in the evening, and our hosts were very kind to wait up for us when we arrived and then to allow us to linger in the house on our last day). The lovely shower in what looks like a really cool cave, and the very pleasant outdoor patio were particular highlights of the apartment.

The only downside is that it is a bit on the noisy side, but overall this was not a big problem. Palermo is a noisy city so there isn't much to be done about that. We are sensitive to noise but did not find it to be a major issue in the apartment -- it was pretty quiet during actual sleeping hours.

I highly recommend a visit to beautiful Palermo, and Valentina's house is a perfect place to stay while you're in town!
