Everything! Our room was much larger than expected, was well furnished, had its own kitchen and two small balconies with an attractive view onto the quiet, traditional residential street below. Large shared kitchen was a really welcoming space and very well equipped, providing everything you might need if you wanted to self cater. Location was great and surprisingly quiet given that it was close to a lively bar/ restaurant area. Excellent communication with host regarding the self check in procedure, gave us tips and recommendations and responded very quickly to any questions.

Nothing to dislike - everything about it was great.

The apartment is perfect, the location is great, close to the center but still quiet. It's very comfy, it has everything you need for your vacations and more. Antonio is very attentive, he gave us a few tips and have some considerations with us regarding the luggage that made our trip much easier. The wifi works perfectly. Also, we stayed another day in a different apartment he manages and it was as good as this so we can't complain. We would have stayed one more day but it was already reserved. Don't hesitate to book this apartment!

nothing :)

Very convenient location - short walk from Palermo Centrale, a Lidl, and bus stops. Lovely to have a small private kitchen in addition to the main communal area, which includes all necessary appliances. The bed was very comfortable and the noise from outside not bad once the windows were closed. The room and whole flat felt secure. The housekeeper Cetty was very friendly and helpful despite a language barrier.

Only issue for us was the bidet was broken. Some furniture on the balcony would have been appreciated, but not a big deal!

Small rooms but everything needed is included. There is a common area with a kitchen and some places to hang out—both were mostly empty during my stay. The location is excellent, right around the corner of, but not at, the streets with all the restaurants and bars. Even better, those are not the tourist traps one finds five minutes further up around Quattro Canti.

Cleaning of the room wasn’t included, which was fine for me but the place got a bit less comfortable after a few days. Besides, get ready to climb some stairs if you book this place.

The host Antonio is very friendly and ready to help. So due to my request they fixed the clogged shower drain very-very quickly. The room was very nice and neat, I liked lying on a bed and looking up at the beautiful stucco on the ceiling after a day of walking around the city. We had all the necessary facilities like a separate shower, a hair dryer right in the room, an iron and an ironing board in the common area, a washing machine in the kitchen and clothes dryers which you may apply on a balcony. Particularly our room was looking on a main tourist street so it was quite loud all the night but if you close the window the sound isolation is nice and if you're not scared of getting cold you may use an air conditioner in such a case. I'd like to mention that the common kitchen area was just fantastic having its own vibe with all the decorative pieces, a gorgeous chandelier, books, chess, plants, etc. You can also cook there as there're all the required utensils and a big table to eat at Our neighbours in other rooms were also nice and quiet people. So I can highly recommend this place and will definitely book it again if I come back to Palermo. Special thanks to Antonio and his great attitude towards his job and guests :)

The apartment had everything that was needed. Comfortable living area, bathroom, even a kitchen and washing machine. Everything was lovely and clean. Our room had 2 balconies and room on the balcony for hanging washing. As well as what we had in the room, there was a large communal kitchen and lounge area that could be used. Antonio the host was very friendly and hospitable. It’s really central as well as being close to some great bars just around the corner. About a 15 minute walk from the train station. The self check in details were very clear and Antonio was very responsive to messages. Would definitely stay here again on our next visit to Palermo.

Just be mindful that there are 3 flights of stairs but in saying that, we’d definitely stay here again.

Just such a beautiful property and a wonderful host. Beautifully furnished and decorated. Extremely comfortable with everything you need for an excellent stay. Brilliant location close to excellent little wine bars and restaurants. We loved Fra Le Porte and if we could move in for good, we would! Antonio is a kind and generous host, he made sure we were comfortable and happy. Will be recommending to all our family and friends lucky enough to be visiting Palermo.

Excellent location in city center with windows and balcony high over pedestrian street Via Vittorio Emanuele, not far from famous Quattro Canti street crossing. Naturally, this is a crowded and noisy place, particular on Friday and Saturday evenings. Good quality double windows with shutters then help (equivalent to tripple window sound insulation). High ceiling, no problems with air. Excellent cleanliness, both in room and in the common space (living room/kitchen). Welcoming and nice hosts, Exotic interior with ancient artefacts. Not for feeble folks: very high 3rd floor, no elevator.

Hard to find anything to criticize. May be: non-availability of power sockets or adapters for using continental Europe-style power cords with Italian 3-in line power sockets. I had my own adapter with me but someone could be caught by surprize. May be, the hosts have the adapters, did not ask them.

This was our emergency stay for two nights (Etna erupted, flight was cancelled, we chose to relocate from Catania) and as such it came as a nice surprise! The location is great and, despite the noisy street below, it didn't really get too bad at night. The aircon unit works perfectly, the beds are fine, the bathroom more than sufficient. There is a balcony, but rather small, so we didn't spend much time on it. It was good to experience the street life from above though. We never met Antonio but he was very helpful in our online exchanges and let us leave our luggage after the check out. Oh, and the kitchen and the common space are absolutely fabulous!

Climbing the stairs (of irregular size, height and shape, the beauty of an old building) with luggage and for a person with two bad knees, well, it was a challenge..

Very nice, cosy and stylish room in a beautiful apartment that feels like a museum. The location is perfect: in a trendy neighborhood yet on a quiet street with a nice view from the balcony. You can find any facilities you may need during your stay. Moreover, I am grateful for the strong but very quiet AC and extra duvet.

The only problem was that the lamps in my room didn't work at all, though the ones in the bathroom did.
