This is the perfect place to enjoy Palermo. It's central and walking distance to many of the attractions - Teatro Massimo, Fontana Pretoria, Ballaro Market, Quattro Canti - and the rest. There are great places to eat and shop around, pedestrian streets closed off to cars (though watch for the mopeds! lol) and parking was easy.
The apartment is spacious - very beautifully decorated and comfortable. Raula has provided everything you need. We loved the balconies off of the main room and the bedroom. Everything feels new and very well kept. It's very clean - it's just so nice.
Raula is lovely and very helpful. There were even fruits from her garden and a basket of snacks for us upon arrival. It really gave us the perfect Palermo experience.
