The place was exactly as pictured! We had a lovely stay and would highly recommend this place to anyone. Very clean with modern amenities. Great area of town with a nice selection of bars, restaurants, and shops literally down the street. Perhaps a slight drawback was the noise from the crowds over-spilling on to the streets, as the apartment is on the ground floor it was quite easy to hear, but if you stay up relatively late (which you probably will, as its Palermo!) then its really not a problem. Other than that, we loved it!
