Giulio’s place was the perfect spot to explore Palermo. The apartment was close to everywhere I wanted to go. It's a super easy walk to the main attractions in Palermo, the train station, and there are so many good restaurants all around. I was a woman traveling alone and felt safe staying there. Giulio was the best host. He left local pastries for me when I arrived, along with coffee for the coffee maker, and also had the refrigerator filled with yogurt and milk. I really appreciated that. He clearly explained the best way for me to get to the apartment from the airport (the sharing taxi or the bus), and very clearly explained how to check into the apartment. He also was able to accommodate me leaving my bags for a little longer than check out was, and I really appreciated that. The apartment was super comfortable and stylish. The terrace/balcony lets in sunlight, but you can also close the shutters if you don't want that. The wifi works great and the kitchen was equipped with a stove and small oven, and cooking essentials. It really is the perfect place. Can't wait to stay there again the next time I'm back in Palermo.
