We are veteran airbnb travellers having stayed in almost 100 airbnb apartments since 2016.
Francesco's spacious apartment is one of our top 10 airbnb stays.
The apartment is on the 2nd floor up a stairway with 15 easy steps to climb
The apartment is VERY tastefully decorated, and VERY spacious, (perhaps 80-100 square meters. )
Francesco has thought of everything: little details like light switches that turned on multiple lights. And All her lights are warm color temperature bulbs..not cold green fluorescent lights. Clothing hooks for jackets by the door.
The apartment is right in the middle of the historic town ...
*one minute walk to the main walking street in Palermo,
*8 minutes walk to the main Cathedral
*16 minutes walk to the Quattro Canti, and
*16 minutes walk to the main bus station and train station .
so if you arrive ...or leave..by plane just take the bus from or to the airport and walk to the apartment from the bus station). And save the €40 taxi fare
From the bus and train stations you can take day trips to historic Agrigento, Erice and Cefalù
The apartment is in a safe, relatively quiet side street. And the double pane windows of the balcony doors filter out any loud street noise.
It has 2 balconies overlooking the street below !!!
Big bedroom, spacious living room with long couch and comfortable armchair.
We stayed a week so we used the kitchen to prepare meals on the stove when we were too lazy to go out. The big Lido supermarket is near the bus station (always crowded)and a Gormet market is around the corner across from the Pad Thai Restaurant...which was also delicious and cheap
All the nice restaurants , bars, pizza shops, ethnic and street food vendors are right around the corner if you don't want to cook.
We came in October so we had several rainy days and it was nice to have a nice cozy apartment to hang out with good wifi to keep us entertained . Oh, And if you need to wash clothes...there is a washing machine too.
Plenty of HOT water in the shower. But Don't forget to bring your own shampoo. (Francesco provides everything else)
This apartment is centrally located so if you came to see the historic part of Palermo, this is the place to be...and you don't need a car
Francesco's spacious and reasonably priced apartment
was our home away from home
A Five Star Stay!!!
