The location of the flat is perfect for visiting Palermo and there is a free circular bus which runs within 5 min walk. The room was clean and a good size with a separate private bathroom. Francis was an excellent and attentive host who bought us cake and coffee in the award winning shop around the corner, and he made us breakfast on both mornings.Communication was excellent. Francis gave us a map and explained the main local sights. He made sure we had a place to park our car. A car is not needed in Palermo and I would not recommend driving in the town.
