This place is great: compact, clean and comfortable. We hired a car at Palermo Airport and used this place as our base for 11 days. Despite its proximity to town - the studio is close enough to walk down into the centre (5 minutes going, 10 mins coming back!) and very convenient for the main A29 road if you’re travelling around the island as we were - the place is nice and quiet at night. The studio has a big comfortable bed, powerful shower and good air con, so we were very comfortable. Parking was available outside the studio (with a permit provided by our hosts) and this was invaluable, because parking is quite restricted the closer to the centre you get. There are lots of bars and restaurants in the little streets and alleyways which cross-cross the harbour area, which is postcard-pretty, especially during daylight. There’s a good local beach 5 minutes drive/ 15 minutes walk away and there are plenty of options for day trips out, especially if you have a car at your disposal: walking in the Zingaro Reserve, the beautiful stone pillars at the old tonnara at Scopello, Trapani and the cablecar to Erice, the salt pans and windmills at Stagnone, the beach at San Vito Lo Capo and the temple and theatre at Segesta are all within easy reach. Communication was excellent, and our hosts went out of their way to help. For example, when I wanted to borrow an iron, it was delivered to us very quickly. All in all we had a great time. Thank you, Giuseppe & Valeria
