The apartment's location couldn't be better, it has a really nice view on the place and a comfortably big terrace. It's on the fifth floor and the stairs are quite steep. Alas the flat is quite run down. It gives the impression that some years ago just the basics were done for renting it and nothing has happened since. We had only online contact with the owner. He was very nice and always helpful. Alas he was not in town and the woman he had hired for our check in had arrived to Palermo just a few days earlier and had no clue about the town.
