Lovely place in the middle of Palermo's old town. The appartment is on the building's third and top level and has exlusive (albeit a bit difficult) access to an extraordinary roof terrace. The building's inner yard offers free and secure parking, something which is highly useful in Palermo.
The appartment is a bit on the small side, but offers everything a family of four needs, including a washing machine and good water pressure. No living room, though. Elena lives two floors down and has been very helpful.
No doubt, we would rent the place again!
One last tip for those who come by car: The appartment lies within Palermo's restricted driving zone (ZTL). In order to avoid a fine, you need to buy a daily pass for 5 Euros from the nearest kiosk (Elena will tell you where) and follow the instructions on the pass (payment by an SMS code). You can also pay later on the same day. And driving anything larger than an Audi A4 should be avoided, in my opinion.
