We stayed here at July for three weeks with my friend. Massimo is friendly person, but he doesn’t speak english so it’s easier to communicate if you speak italian.

Before we booked our stay, we had asked exact summary of the price. However when we arrived it clarified that the air conditioning costs 100 euros more (we had to pay by cash). Perhaps it’s ordinary system in Italy, but it would be important to know all the exact fees before arriving, because we are students and our travel budget is carefully planned. Massimo told us that there are mention about that in website, but it’s written in italian. However all the written conversation was in english. Also the price summary.

Air conditioner was effective and it worked well.

Massimo gave us the map and two traved guides. He also gave us a lot of useful tips for Palermo.

The apartment is located in a good, central position. It’s only 10 minute walk to city centre. Apartment was just like the pictures. It was clean and we had quick internet connection, which was very nice. Large, beautifully furnished balcony was comfortable. There were also plenty of linens.

The biggest problem in apartment was the toilet, because the toilet seat didn’t flush at all. We negotiated about that and Massimo promised that he can compensate the problem with returning 50 euros from the price and transporting us to airport early morning on our departure day. Compensations were suitable to us and Massimo drove us to airport just like we compromised.

Altogether we really enjoyed Palermo, so the small problems with the apartment didn’t ruin our trip. I’m sure we will come to Sicily again!
