This apartment is very scenic and opens into a piazza. It has two big bedrooms, a nice dining room, kitchen and bathroom with a shower. All the windows have internal shutters that you can close if you want it dark and quiet so you can sleep. It is possible to get there by car, but the Palermo streets are very narrow and confusing to me. We took a taxi share and I guess she got tired of the winding streets because she dropped us off a few blocks away and just pointed in the direction we should go. Giovanni was very good about responding to text messages and he found us and showed us to the place. He was a very nice person and tried to help, although his english is limited. The apartment is close to a major street and the neighborhood is very lively at night (we were there over the weekend which could be the reason). We found the wi-fi totally unreliable which - for us - was a pretty big deal since I had very limited data plan from AT&T and relied heavily on wi-fi access while in Italy. But if you have a good data plan with your provider and do not rely on wi-fi, that shouldn't be a problem. I would recommend this place for an authentic Palermo experience.
