the apartment was located in the centre of Palermo as described, so it was very great to have short walks to the tourist attractions.
what we were really disappointed by, was that we didn't get the room we booked. You book a room over Airbnb because you take a look at the pictures of the room, the furniture, the window/ventilation situation.
we booked a room with a big window, which was at the backside of the building (away from street noise). the first night we got a room which didn't looked at all like the one we booked. it was completely dark, with just a small window and it smelled terribly like air refresher. after complaining the next day (because my friend has asthma and couldn't breathe the whole night), we got another room, but still not the one we booked (that one was obviously overbooked). it was located at the street side so it was pretty loud. but still better than the first room.
please be aware that your guests get the room they booked. we didn't feel very welcome.
