The apartment was ideally situated for sightseeing in Palermo. The things we were keen to see were within walking distance and there were plenty of restaurants and cafes close by. Manfredi was very kind in helping us to park the car and making recommendations about places to eat. The apartment appeared to be newly renovated It was clean , well presented and had everything we needed . It faced onto an internal courtyard which meant no street noise. The downside was that this orientation meant there was no sunlight in the apartment. We were there in winter. I imagine it would be much lighter and sunnier in summer. In any case we were were out and about during the day time so that didn't matter much.
