"Très bien situé pour visiter Palerme à pied. Pouvoir garder sa voiture dans la résidence est un véritable atout dans cette ville. L appartement est très confortable et très fonctionnel. Il est très bien insonorisé. Nous sommes arrivés très tard le soir, et quelqu un de la famille du propriétaire a pu malgré tout nous accueillir ! Super !"
