This is a HUGE modern and well-appointed apartment in the renovated Palazzo Sambuca. Palermo is a gritty and noisy city but this apartment was a quiet and luxurious oasis in the historic Kalsa district. We appreciated the nice parking spot within the palazzo courtyard (had no problem parking our small rental car - you really need one to navigate the tiny streets and get through the garage door) and the proximity to the main sites, particularly the Church of San Cataldo (Arab Norma Church) and the Mercado Ballaro. If you like to walk, this is a truly relaxing and convenient place to stay because Palermo has so many interesting little streets, baroque buildings, lovely fountains, restaurants, etc., It was very relaxing to go back to the apartment after a long day. The bed was very comfortable and everything in the apartment was super-sized which is a rarity for an apartment of this price. Highly-recommend and would definitely stay here again.
