The first impression of the building was very sketchy - it feels like it is still in repairs and entrance does not look welcoming at all. The whole apartament is rather small, and the bathroom/2nd bedroom is upstairs. Rather frustrating to climb up in the heat. The ameneties in the kitchen were sufficient for basic cooking.
However, after you get the taste of Palermo, this home will give you a very true and local experience The balcony, although tiny, lets you enjoy the evenings streets. Great location in the old town - max 10min walk to any attraction and nightlife. BEST BONUS- 3min walk from shuttle-bus to airport.
