Five minutes walk or less from the famous Piazza Politeama and from the very elegant Vie Libertà and RuggeroVII venues, moreover, of the most chic shops in the whole city, we find ourselves having all the most important lines of public transport close at hand, to easily reach the nearby port, but also the airport, Mondello, the city's renowned and lush seaside resort, the other neighborhoods and the nearby immense historic center, home to the very famous and appetizing street markets (Vucciria, Ballarò and Capo among the others) and redundant monuments and unique artistic masterpieces, the result of a centuries-old overlap of many of the most evolved cultures of all time, difficult to find in other parts of the world. The apartment strives to be in line with all this, a refined mix between the charm and the antique of the ceilings and decorated floors of the time and the modern of an elegant decor in neutral colors, deliberately never too intrusive.

The kitchen and bathroom were also a good size and very clean. A great location. The parking was not easy as it’s a busy area but it’s ok once you know what to do.

Its location worked for us as it seemed to be in the middle - meaning that a short walk in any direction would take us to interesting sites. Also, a 7 minute walk from the Lolli train stop was very convenient for taking the train to and from the airport. Francesco, the property owner, met us on arrival. A very warm and welcoming man who gave us many tips on how to enjoy our ten day stay in Palermo. Many good restaurants, stores and a supermarket within a few blocks of the property. We enjoyed a few lunches at the small, friendly cafe that was directly below our apartment. Highly recommended. ##### Terry T. Stayed 10 nights in Oct 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Christina S.

This property is a beautiful refuge. It had everything we needed for a few days in Palermo -- from a well-stocked kitchen to a washing machine. The apartment is gorgeous with plenty of space. The neighborhood is really interesting. Be sure to walk around because there are treasures on every block. We found live music in the streets with dancing, amazing restaurants, and lovely bakeries and butcher shops. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 4 nights in Oct 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Valerie J.

It’s a great central location, and though on 2 busy streets—noisy during the day—it quiets down at night. The apartment is lovely & spacious, with painted ceilings & tile floors. Also, another rarity in Sicily: an elevator! Our host, Francisco, met us at the apartment to orient us, and was friendly and available. Highly recommended! ##### Valerie J.

Francesco was an amazing host, greeting us at check-in and check-out and making sure we had amazing recommendations for food, wine, and more. His recommendations did not disappoint! The location was quite noisy at night but that is to be expected in the middle of a bustling city so it did not affect my rating. The best parts of the apartment were the open air windows, natural light, spacious living spaces and bathroom, as well as the kind host, Francesco. ##### Megan H.

Apartment was spotless and contained everything we needed. The shutters on the windows were a great buffer against a little bit of street noise and daylight if you want to sleep in. Francesco was a great host - returned messages promptly, left lots of travel info and a few goodies in the fridge. Would highly recommend. ##### Kevin N.

A wonderful time that my wife & I had staying in Francesco's old world building renovated apartment, equiped with modern amenities. The apartment is a delightful 15 minute walk along an expansive Via Liberta Blvd with many high end stores & restaurants leading to the Historic City Centre of Palermo. Francesco had the apartment well stocked and he was very attentive & helpful with all recommendations and made our stay relaxing and worry free. The apartment is located in a lovely, family oriented neighborhood that is safe with numerous cafes & restaurants right on the block. As veteran travelers we would highly recommend staying in this apartment when traveling in Palermo. Thank you Francesco for making our stay a memorable one. ##### Al F. Stayed 2 nights in Mar 2019 ### 8/10 Good #### Mr S. Oct 17, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication #### Historic residence This is a large first floor 19c one bedroom flat with lovely features such as original windows, painted ceilings, tiled floors etc. The rooms are large and the property is very clean. The flat is about 10 minutes walk from Palermo centre so very convenient. It is also close to the airport bus stop and train station. Our host met us at the property and was very patient with us as were late due to a mix up of addresses. Not the fault of our host. The only downside is the night-time noise of traffic and, on a Friday night, the "boy racers" with their noisy sound systems. So if you are a light sleeper you may have problems, but in reality it didn't bother us too much. ##### Mr S. Stayed 4 nights in Oct 2023
