My daughter (22) and I spent a week in Palermo staying at Valentinas place. If you are looking for authentic, characterful Sicilian accommodation Valentinas place is for you! It is ideally situated within 15 minutes walking distance of the old part of town, on the top floor of a traditional stone building. It is accessed by steps (around 80!) so you need to be able to manage these. We loved the roof terrace and enjoyed breakfast in the sunshine with views over the rooftops and mountains. Valentina gave us lots of information to make sure we made the most of our visit and she replied quickly to any questions we asked. She was very helpful with our check out allowing us to leave bags after checkout as we had a late flight back.
