Virginia's apartment is in a great location in the middle of downtown within walking distance of all of the sites. Initially when we got there we thought the area was kind of sketchy but it was perfectly fine. Considering what a great location it is, it was surprisingly quiet. There's also parking right outside the apartment entrance. Checking in and out was easy and Virginia responded very quickly to all messages. The apartment was quaint and had all amenities that we needed. Virginia even left out maps and other information that tourists would find helpful. We really enjoyed our time in Palermo and had a great stay at this apartment. Definitely recommend!
