The apartment was big, the terrace is an amazing feature, and Alessandro was a great communicator and went out of the way to help us, even if we had an issue late at night or early in the morning. We stayed for three months and had everything we needed to cook, make coffee, and the WiFi was perfect. We never had an issue with the internet even while working remotely and running multiple devices.
My only negatives have nothing to do with Alessandro or the apartment itself but with the neighborhood. We did experience being mugged on the way back from the apartment, a couple blocks away, and there are some nearby who shoot off fireworks and firecrackers, sometimes late at night. There were quite a few times when we didn’t feel fully safe when we left the apartment, but the property itself is well-secured and the apartment is great. I recommend staying here but definitely be careful if you’re out in the evening.
The location is close to everything in Palermo you’d likely want to see as a tourist, it’s close to a grocery store and the open marketplace, and just a short walk from the central train station.
