Overall very nice idea to make such a designer loft. It was a first time experience for me and that was the reason to pick it up. It is well located nearby the city center but Via Maqueda is in general a "strange" street where I wouldn't stay after 20:30h. Unfortunately, that seems to be valid for many parts of Palermo (if not all) and the city looks poor and not safe enough. Luckily the loft has its own yard to park the cars and big doors that remain closed during the night - to bring confort to residents.
Ilenia was kind enough to wait for us as we got lost because of road construction in the city and a need to find alternative way to the loft. Please be aware that she doesn't speak English, so for more questions, you have to contact Barbara.
