We loved everything about this place.
Francesco was excellent to communicate with, both accommodating and responsive. Check in was easy.
The apartment was very modern and stylishly decorated, and clean. The bed was super comfortable and the kitchen was well-appointed for making meals during the week we stayed. Francesco even supplied coffee and some other goodies.
The location is fantastic, we were able to easily get around everywhere on foot. An 8 minute walk from the central train station, 10-20 minutes walking from all the sites in town, and close to transit to see beaches or other places outside of Palermo. It is also about a 2 minute walk from a grocery, and 8 minutes from an exciting bustling street market, Ballaro. Finally, the apartment is just off a lovely piazza filled with hip bars for having a drink in the evening.
I definitely recommend this place, I would stay here again on a return trip to Palermo.
