Marias place is a tranquil island in the midst of the busy, beatuyful Palermo. It's location is perfect - right at the theatre and next to one of the typical markets. I stayed 3 nights in the apartment and there were few others as it was october. I had a light, very clean room. The whole apartment is decorated with much love for details. The comunal areas are great with hammock and books. You have everything in the kitchen including breakfast if you wish. The terrace is just great with a beautyful view. Maria picked me up at the port really early in the morning, printed something for me and was just very thoughtful. Easy communication too. Very recomendable!
