I loved staying here, it was close and within walking distance to everything I wanted to see. A couple blocks away from the marina and maybe a ten minute walk to the main old town area. There’s a square nearby where they played music and danced, which was great but did go on until 5am. So some nights when I wanted to go to bed it did make it slightly difficult due to being a light sleeper. I definitely wouldn’t say it’s a downside but maybe bring ear plugs if you’re a light sleeper. If you want a true taste of palermo though it was perfect. I joined in one night and they taught me a ton of traditional dances.
The place was well maintained and adorable. Davide was the most helpful host i’ve had. You do have to go up a few steps and a small hallway to get to the apartment. Which I though was cool but could be limiting to some people.
