We had a great time in Casa Ponticello. The apartment is in the heart of Palermo and shops as well as restaurants were easy to locate. The bus and train station are near by if you want to explore other parts of Sicily. At nights it was sometimes really busy outside, but we always felt safe and had no trouble sleeping. We were really happy that we could use the air conditioner since it was really hot outside. The host's were really nice and helpful. Over-all we had an amazing time in Palermo and we recommend this apartment to all travelers who want to get to know Palermo as well as the other parts of Sicily. Btw. the Sightseeing Bus Station is only a few steps away.
