Virginia is a great host. She welcomed us personally. We could even enter the apartment a lot prior official checkin time. Apartment is super clean and spacious! Its right in the Center of palermo, but still not too noisy (good windows in the bedrooms) Highly recommended!

“Amazing stay in the heart of Centro Storico”
We had a gorgeous time in this apartment. It’s a very old building on San Domenico square looking right across at the church and the restaurants below. The apartment was spotless and we were very kindly left a Sicilian bottle of wine and water which was very helpful. There’s two big bedrooms and aircon in one and in the living room. A lovely balcony to enjoy a drink in the evening overlooking the square. We were able to leave our bags before and after check in and Virginia was very quick to answer our calls and accommodate us. She offered multiple recommendations for restaurants and also helped us organise a shuttle bus to the airport. Very centrally located, right next to Vucciria market, and walking distance to everything. Would highly recommend staying here to experience the historic centre!

“A perfect base for exploring Palermo.”
A spacious apartment in an excellent location. The area is central, full of character and feels very safe. Everything we wanted to see was within easy walking distance. It's also next to a stop for the shuttle bus for the airport. The host, Virginia, is charming and very helpful. Although overlooking a busy piazza, it's perfectly quiet inside the apartment.

“A Wonderful place, a home away from home, you should be here!!-”
Virginia was an absolutely wonderful host! We had everything we needed, and any support along the way. What a delightful woman! The apartment was beautiful! More than I imagined, and was stocked with everything we could’ve wanted or needed, plus the small delights, unexpected. Truly a home away from home!  The location was perfect!  The location is in the center of everything and has access to anything you need to do or anywhere you need to go.
