The reception team were very helpful and quick to respond to the couple of queries we had. The apartment was a good size and very clean. The location was perfect for us allowing a short walk into the main area. My only disappointment was that the booking was for a room with a balcony. This had an outdoor terrace but no outdoor furniture, so not quite as expected but still good choice.

Good apartment in a gentrifying area near Ballard Market and a short walk to Centrale, Via Maqueds, Palazzo Reale, Cathedral etc. Nice people, the helpful receptionist is fluent in English, the breakfast young woman, who also kept the apartment spotless, is lovely. Use the train direct to Palazzo Orleans Reale station 10 minutes walk from the apartment as it’s faster and much cheaper than a taxi on the clogged roads.

The appartment itself was ok: renovated building, lots of space, clean, several eating options closeby... There was actually an elevator contrary to what was listed on Expedia, a nice surprise. My only minor gripes were that the mattress was too soft for my taste and the TV quite small. However, I had two more important concerns which negatively impacted my stay experience. The appartments are actually operated from a hotel located in Porta di Castro (about 200 meters from them). - Check-in must be done at the hotel the address of which is not present in the info shared on Expedia. Not info is visible at the appartment location. Fortunately I was able to join the owner through Expedia messages and ultimately but this was not a pleasant experience, especially since my flight was delayed and I arrived quite late. - The pool is not located in the appartment building but in the hotel at Porta di Castro. This is better than no pool but way less practical and it definitely should have been stated clearly in the description.

We kwam binnen, we waren 3 uur te vroeg dus we konden even in de lobby wachten waar we allemaal Siciliaanse delicatessen gratis kregen aangeboden, vervolgens kregen we een kamer die er erg schoon uitzag en die werd iedere dag schoongemaakt. Als kers op de taart enorm vriendelijk personeel werkt er!

Det var inte tydligt att poolen och lägenheten inte låg i samma hus när jag bokade. Det fungerade men var inte optimalt. Vi hade lägenheten med takterrassen och allt var toppen! Tyvärr för varmt i mitten av juli för att vara på den på dagtid.

Det var et absolutt pluss med tilgang på basseng, men det var litt uklart for oss at bassenget er på en annen lokasjon enn selve leiligheten. Siden dette er en familieleilighet, hadde vi satt pris på noe mer utstyr for enkel husholdning (en kniv, et par asjetter etc). Aircondition bør utbedres da lyden fra denne var forstyrrende på natten. Leiligheten hadde en god beliggenhet med gangavstand til mange severdigheter.

Väldigt fräsch och ren lägenhet med mysigt läge mitt i gamla stan. Man får dock vara medveten om att kvarteren är slitna och smutsiga men det är en del av Palermos charm. Observera att lägenheten ligger ett par hundra meter från hotellet där man checkar in. Poolen ligger också i en egen innergård på baksidan av hotellet men du kan gå förbi receptionen och få poolhanddukar. Personalen var mycket trevlig och hjälpsam, visade vägen till lägenheten och höll bra koll på poolområdet. Erbjöd dryck och snacks medan de ordnade med incheckningen.

Har allt man kan önska sig. Vi stötte på lite bekymmer med en luftkonditionering som lät men det löstes genom att vi fick byta rum. Man märker att personal har hög omsorg kring sina gäster och gör vad de kan för att de ska trivas. Ja, skavanker finns men inget den opetige bryr sig om.
