Paola is terrific!! She is quick to respond if you have any questions or need anything and otherwise you are on your own to do as you need to have a great stay in Palermo. The place is small and smart. It is comfortable and stylish. The AC works really well for the summer months. It is bright and cheerful. The space is great for 1 or 2 people.
I stayed for a couple of weeks and it quickly felt like home. There is a lot of stairs -- just be aware if that is an issue (this is common in Palermo). The kitchen is small but great and allowed me to make breakfast and lunch sometimes. It is really quiet in the day, especially in the afternoons..... sometimes at night it can be noisy b/c there is a great piazza (plaza) close by with entertainment at night. Only 1 night of 15 were distruptive and for me that was fine. Mostly nights were actually very peaceful.
Paola's place is a super good match for me . - when I return to Palermo I will book again... note: This is the 4th place I have stayed in Palermo this year... Paola's is my top pick! : )
