Giancarlo's apartment is perfectly located in the historic center of Palermo. Many great places for visiting, eateries, traditional street markets and shopping are just within short walking distance. It can be easily reached from the train station either by taking a short bus ride or walking for about 30 min along a straight main street. The apartment is quite spacious and very well equipped. Giancarlo is a nice host. I arrived late at night and he was there waiting for me. On the day I left, he found a way for me to leave my luggage so that I could walk around and see the city a bit more before going to the airport in the evening. I recommend it and would like to stay there again the next time I go to Palermo!
