We had excellent communication with Claudia before our stay. She also arranged for a car to pick us up from the airport to the apartment. Her husband, Fulvio, met us at the front door and was very welcoming. In fact, so far on our trip this has been the best welcoming. He stocked the kitchen with water and juices, as well as some fresh fruit. There was even a chilled bottle of bubbly wine! Fulvio gave us a tour of the place and told us some history of the apartment and surrounding area. And then, he showed us the best part - the roof top terrace. With a spectacular almost 360 degree view of Palermo, it was furnished beautifully with lounge chairs, and a dining table and chairs for outdoor eating. We loved to come back and relax here after a busy day of site seeing. The apartment was very cleaned and well equipped. Fulvio and Claudia are wonderful people and I highly recommend their apartment.
