Our trip to Palermo (wife, daughter, daughter and son-in-law) was fantastic. The area of town we spent our 6 days (basically around the apartment) was not touristy, had plenty to offer and was a lot of fun.
Vito's parents were our host and with the power of Google Translator and the apartment notes, we everything worked out wonderfully. The apartment is located a perfect spot...location... location... location. Amenities were great.
The apartment was clean and comfortable. A small TV with digital over the air channels (Italian and one French (and VH1) was in the dining/living room area. The Kitchen was perfect as we did cook breakfast and a couple of dinners while visiting. A tip or expectation setting thought for visiting Americans is that the showers are really small (compared to American showers), so it takes a little getting used to, but in the end, we were there to enjoy Sicily... not showers
We had a great time visiting Palermo and staying in Vito's Air BnB. His communication was great and his Canoli and restaurant tips were spot on.
