Overall, we had a disappointing stay at Martina's apartment. There are a couple of clear pros and cons we experienced when staying at the apartment (July-August 2022).
Pros:
- Spacious apartment with nice looking rooms
- Free parking on the street in front of the apartment (enough spaces, we had no trouble finding an empty space)
- Close to the train station and cultural centre of Palermo (10min walk)
- Clear and good communication for check-in/check-out
Cons:
- Overall cleanliness of the apartment was way below the standard it should be (you know something is wrong when you have to closely assess everything you touch on cleanliness before using)
- The towels provided had stains all over them and were completely worn out
- In one of the bathrooms, the shower drain was clogged up making it so that dirty water from the siphon resurfaced
- Last but not least, finding cockroaches all over the appartement made it impossible for us the really stay at ease in the apartment.
Once the mentioned cons are sorted, I would recommend to stay at Martina's apartment for visiting Palermo because it has potential. But for now (July-August 2022), I would stay away from this one.
