Great location in the historic city center. Excellent communication with the very kind and accommodating host. Check-in/check-out super easy. The apartment is an open loft setup with bed upstairs (steep stairs to reach the loft and no door) and bathroom, living room and kitchen downstairs. I didn't find the bed and pillows particularly comfortable, but that's just me. Bathroom was modern, shower water pressure and temperature good. The apartment is on a narrow street so, despite the windows, there isn't a lot of natural light that makes it in. This is good for sleeping - it's nice and dark - but not if you are looking for something luminous. Kitchen is built into a corner of the living room and basic (like a studio), but the refrigerator is a good size. Palermo is "loud" in general, so light sleepers be prepared for dogs barking, noisy people on the street, etc. For me and my daughter who needed a last-minute place to stay for a weekend, it worked for us.
