Palermo’s finest
Our family enjoyed an elegant, comfortably furnished and artistically decorated apartment located on a pedestrian boulevard. Bathrooms and kitchen are nicely updated. Marble floors and three balconies add charm and access to fresh air and outside views. There are clothes lines outside the balconies. Outlet adapters were available throughout the apartment. With easy access to historic sites, markets and vibrant nightlife, the apartment is close to everything and we felt safe. Virginia communicated clearly and promptly from our initial booking to our meeting at check-in. She reviewed a city map pointing out restaurants, markets, and public transportation. It was as great place to stay and she is an excellent host.

Family visit to Palermo
Our family of six, three generations, stayed for five nights in this beautiful and spacious apartment. The location is perfect! The house is furnished with beautiful antique furniture. Our bedrooms were spacious and very comfortable the kitchen was very well equipped. We ejected the apartment very well and were all sad to leave. I definitely would go back.

Property was just as advertised!
We stayed for 5 nights. Lovely apartment with a good space for 4 active senior women. The owner was very helpful with background history of Palermo, and the building. We went to a few of the recommended restaurants which were all good. We were very close to the Piazza del Duomo and found a lovely little cafe/restaurant for breakfast right round the corner.

Great Palermo Trip!!
This was a great place to stay. There were 6 of us and it worked well for everyone. The location was great! It was close enough to walk to all of the key sites and food. Virginia and her daughter were extremely welcoming and knowledgeable. They made the trip very easy and pleasant. It was a great trip!

Wonderful flat
Old world charm and new world comfort: soaring ceilings, marble everything, beautiful art plus ac and great wifi. Steps from all the restaurants and sites of downtown Palermo. Plenty of room to spread out. Virginia is a very gracious host and we really appreciated all her help and advice!

Great location in Palermo
We enjoyed our stay. It was a great location next to the Palermo Cathedral and easy walking distance to the Norman Palace and the Massimo Theater. Good cafes and restaurants are very close. Markets/Supermarkets are not overly close. As my wife as mobility issues, the only drawback is that the picture shown is for one rental and then our apartment was up another set of stairs to the right. The apartment was quite spacious, 2 large bedrooms, kitchen, dining room, 2 sitting rooms and 2 bathrooms. Given the opportunity to return, we would check into staying at Virginia's apartment once again.

Perfectly Placed in Palermo
Take the host’s word for it when she tells you to leave your car in the underground lot at the edge of town! This place was right in the middle of the active, ancient, tiny streets of Palermo. It was an easy walk to the Four Corners landmark which was the starting point of several of our tours, both guided and self-led. Ours was the second floor of this three-story home. Cool stone floors and air-conditioning made it the perfect respite between outings in the heat of July. I would highly recommend this place to anyone traveling to Palermo!
