Silvia was an excellent host and gave us a lot of good tips of where to go and where to eat. We had some fantastic meals as a result. The flat is in a great location..very safe area with lots of local people living nearby..you feel you are in the real palermo It is within easy reach of train station (15 min walk)and buses to take you to mondello beach (5 min walk) it was also very quiet at night and we had no problems with noise that a previous guest mentioned. It was a perfect experience all round and we can not wait to return!
