The apartment is situated in a nice and safe residential area of Palermo. You are not directly in the touristy city center, this would be a walk of approx 30min. There are also buses. The apartment is as described and we had a great time there visiting Palermo and the surroundings. You will hear the traffic from the street though. There is a free and private parking for your car, which is really an advantage. Also the big balcony is great for breakfast in the sun. Recommendations in the area are Vinoveritas Enoteca (stylish aperitivo and great dinner) or just the local pasticceria at the corner of your building.
If you want to have an authentic and nice stay in Palermo, this is your place.
