Comfortable shared apartment. Rita's daughter Beatricia(sp?) lives there, speaks English well, and has many useful tips. They are very friendly and hospitable. The apartment is about 300m from a train station which was very nice for traveling by train. Also a city tram is even closer. I walked all over Palermo from the apartment. Well equipt kitchen, hot/high pressure shower, mini espresso machine. Quiet at night, during the day you might want ear plugs for a siesta, I am a light sleeper. I can recommend staying here.
