Very good and worth the 5 star rating
We stayed here in October and the apartment is as good as others have commented. Superb convenient location and with a bit of patince always somewhere to park your car. Very easy food shopping locally and access to the city center is quick and easy.
Fabrizio is a very good host and really tries to look after his guests and deserves the recommendations you have read here and on other websites.

Wundervolle Dachterrassenwohnug im Herzen von Palermo
Wir haben 7 wunderschöne Tage in dieser tollen Wohnung verbracht. Die Wohnung liegt direkt am Rande der Altstadt mit Blick auf den Palazzo Reale. Von dort kann man zu Fuß die Altstadt mit ihren Sehenswürdigkeiten erkunden.
Unser Vermieter Fabrizio hat uns am 26.12. Abends super nett empfangen. Er hatte sogar von seiner Mutter etwas zu essen für uns mitgebracht.. das war sehr lecker und sehr nett von ihm! Er hat uns viele gute Tips für Palermo gegeben und war sehr bemüht uns unseren Aufenthalt zu angenehm wie möglich zu gestalten. Dafür vielen Dank! Die Wohnung ist sehr schön eingerichtet, mit großer Küche und großer Dachterrasse. In der Umgebung sind nette kleine Restaurants und Geschäfte wo man alles einkaufen kann. Der Strassenmarkt Ballarò ist auch in unmittelbarer Nähe, wo man frisches Gemüse, Obst, Fisch etc. kaufen kann. Ein rundum gelungener Aufenthalt.

Incantevole soggiorno!
Ho deciso di pernottare per un weekend in questa piacevole struttura vicinissima al centro storico di Palermo e ben collegata con i mezzi di trasporto.
L'appartamento si presenta in perfetto stile moderno ed è dotato di ogni comfort, non manca veramente nulla! Le aspettative sono state più che soddisfatte, sia per l'eleganza e la raffinatezza degli arredi all'interno, che per il panorama di cui si può godere, ottimo scenario per un aperitivo a fine giornata con vista sul Palazzo dei Normanni. Fabrizio, il proprietario, con la sua disponibilità ed empatia ha reso questi pochi giorni piacevoli e interessanti, grazie anche ad alcuni consigli e curiosità su Palermo che in pochi conoscono! Grazie Fabrizio!

Superbly located excellent penthouse apartment with great views
This well equipped spacious apartment is located in a secure building with an elevator. It is exactly as described and the host, Fabrizio gave us a very warm welcome and was very helpful in providing excellent information about the local area. He was also readily available throughout our stay to answer questions as needed. The views are outstanding, both from the large terrace overlooking Piazza Indipendenza and from the balcony and windows on the opposite side looking out over the University and gardens. It is easy walking distance to the main sights of Palermo and to excellent cafes and restaurants. Certainly seeing the Duomo, the Royal Palace and the Palatine Chapel were highlights. Visits to Monreale by bus and Cefalù by train are also recommended. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and heartily recommend this lovely apartment.

Perfect for location, extremely helpful host,comfortable apartment with great view.
We spent 4 days in the apparent but wished we could have stayed longer .The apartment was comfortable with all the amenities we required. Lovely balcony, views of historical town. Bonus was that we were within walking distance of it and if you chose to catch the free tourist bus to view all the points of interest it was not far away. Fabrizio was very helpful and met us at the apartment and then he spent time mapping out all the point of interest, different restaurants, etc. Would definitely stay there again.

Beautiful apartment in Piazza Indipendenza
Palermo was the end of our three-week holiday in Sicily. Since my wife and I had been staying in B&B’s and hotels throughout the trip, we thought it would be great to be able to have an apartment to ourselves. The apartment was everything we had hoped for and more. Fabrizio is a fabulous host. He responded quickly to my emails and we confirmed our dates (this was 7 months in advance). We dropped off our rental car at the airport and he arranged for a limo service to pick us up and take us to the apartment (and to take us back to the airport 5 days later). When we arrived, he spent more than an hour with us going over everything in the apartment. But more importantly he oriented us to the neighbourhood and the city. On the city map he provided, he pointed out tourist sites; we talked about restaurants and shops; we talked about safety and neighbourhoods, public transit and taxis. Everything you want to know when you arrive in a new city.
The apartment is on the top floor of a building in Piazza Indipendanza, at the top of Via Vittorio Emanuele, with terraces on two sides. (There is an elevator.) The pictures on the website are very accurate, but there is another newly renovated bathroom off the kitchen that is not shown that is very nice. The bed was fine, the pillows good, the kitchen has enough utensils to make meals. The apartment was very clean and we left it that way. The apartment is on a busy piazza, but it slows down at night and on weekends. The window of the main bedroom opens to the rear of the building, so noise was not an issue. It was still quite warm and humid in Palermo in mid-October, so we did use the A/C. It worked well to cool down the bedroom and the kitchen/living area.
I went across the piazza every morning for fresh pastries at Cappello, which were divine. And the best gelato in Palermo is gelateria is La Kala down by the port.
This apartment is in an excellent location, is very clean and comfortable to stay in. I heartily recommend staying here while in Palermo.
