The apartment is situated just inside the market ‘Capo’ in the historic centre of Palermo. It is close to the Teatro Massimo and in easy walking distance of the main sights. For further distances the buses and trains were within easy reach.
It is on the first floor overlooking market stalls and street food vendors. They start setting up around 7.30 in the morning but the sounds did not bother us at all - in fact we enjoyed the sounds and colour of the market very much and enjoyed watching it from our balcony. There is no traffic in the daytime and the traders keep the street clean and washed down every day. The food is fantastic and so easy to find just outside the apartment! We would recommend taking a ‘Food Tour’ early in the visit to learn about it.
Melania is a fantastic host and could not have been more welcoming and helpful. The apartment is light comfortable and and modern and equipped with everything needed and more, and full of thoughtful touches. Highly recommended.
