We had a lovely holiday here! Located very centrally, a minutes walk from the via Marqueda and via Roma, the main streets in the town, and in the centre of the historical area of Palermo with the port in one direction and the Norman castle in the other. As it’s on a side street, it is quiet at night, and stays cool especially with air con. The apartment is compact but had everything we needed. The staircase up to the bed on the mezzanine level was not a problem at all for us, but may be difficult to access if whoever is sleeping there has mobility issues.
Alexandra’s parents let us in and out and they were so helpful and lovely and friendly (in Italian, which one of our group could speak)! Alexandra was also quick to reply to any messages.
We really loved Palermo as a city, and recommend arancini from the Antica Focacceria San Francesco, and brioche gelatos!
