The apartment is well placed in the historic part of Palermo, with the busy Maqueda (walking) Street not far down the little lane. It’s light and bright with a good sized bathroom/laundry, and has been recently fully renovated. The kitchen is equipped with an oven and microwave, and crockery and cutlery, but we were disappointed it didn’t have some basics we expected such as a kettle and saucepan to make a coffee or cook a light meal. Although in a noisy area, it has good soundproofing with new windows. We were well supported by our contact Michele.
