Wonderful place, bring ear plugs. Luigi deserves the “Super Host” award from AirBnB. He met us at the train station & took two of our suitcases on his scooter as we walked to the apartment. The apartment is as advertised (but see below), although the skill with which the photos make it look larger must be admired. The kitchen is fully equipped with only a two burner range. The double glazed windows are nice because there is a very noisy club scene in the piazza below. Light sleepers might want ear plugs, especially between 0200 & 0400 when the Pop Korner club next door is in full roar, & between 0430 & 0530 when the Tinkie Winkie Drink Club is winding down (names are real). Technically, there is not a washing machine, but Luigi will cheerfully take away & return dry, clean, & folded items that at other AirBnB places I simply put in a washing machine & line dried. Luigi is affable, agreeable, and extremely helpful. He provided multiple copies of a very high quality map of Palermo, & took the time to annotate it for us. We enjoyed the elevator, as this is on what Europeans call the 4th floor, with a zero-th floor one flight of stairs above the entry. Despite the elevator, it’s not for the mobility impaired. The central location, 7 minutes or so on foot from the Quattro Canti is a real plus. When we, apparently mistakenly, thought there was no hot water, Luigi responded very quickly & appropriately.
