Exceptional
Super nice place & friendly host!
Liked: The appartment was nice and clean, we got a super friendly welcome by Elio. He gave us lots of tips and was available for any questions. It’s a 5 to 10 minute drive to the city center, which was very doable. The pool is very big and also clean. Just make sure to bring your swimming cap.
Super scilian stay
Liked: The apartment was close to the airport via public transport which we had googled pre travel, however our host also sent directions which were very helpful. Our host ensured that we were settled explaining the location of the nearest supermarket (10 min walk), the rules of the pool (you must wear a swim cap) and introduced us to the concierge (who wrote out the ticket for entry to the pool to be presented to the lifeguard) before leaving us. The apartment was very clean, had plentiful towels, and our host had kindly left bottled water, juice, tea and coffee to get us started. The kitchen facilities were basic - just a hob, however this was a holiday so we weren't planning on cooking a banquet and it sufficed for simple meals. We found some lovely places to eat close to the apartment, met friendly proprietors who coped with our reliance on a phrasebook and had a wonderful stay. Our host recommended a taxi service for our return to the airport who were reliable and prompt. All in all, it is a great place to relax and explore the island from.
Disliked: Some users of the pool seemed to resent our use of their pool. However, this was not representative of the vast majority as we respected all the rules. Bring your own swim caps!
Lovely room and base for exploring
Liked: The room was very clean, and the location was perfect for us as we wanted to explore all of Palermo. The bus stop just a short walk would take you to anywhere you want to go. A day ticket for the bus is 3.50, and children under 10 are free. With this, you can get on and off as many buses for 24 hours. The bus stop is (Piazza Giovanni Paolo). You can buy bus tickets from most Tabacchi shops. Or if you want to buy them on the bus, then you can't buy it off the driver. You have to wait until a conductor comes onto the bus at one of the stops. It is also really close to Palermo's football stadium. If you like football, it's worth a visit as the atmosphere is amazing. There are lots of nice places to eat in walking distance too (around 10 minutes) or the bus ride into Palermo is short.
Disliked: You must wear a swimming hat in the pool. This is fine, but we didn't know before we left England and then spent time looking for one in shops around Mondello. We found some in a shop not too far of a walk from the apartment called Master Nuoto.
Liked: Very friendly hosts, who made us feel really welcome, althougt it was in the middle of the night when we arrived. The fridge was full of water and ice tea and fresh biscuits were waiting for us.
Disliked: When you go to the store or farmacy, there is trash laying around on the street.
Very good
Highly recommend and would 100% stay there again
Liked: Elio was an exceptional host. He and his wife kindly picked us up from the station as it was heavy rain, and also left us cookies and a book for my young son. The accommodation was perfect for us. Lovely and quiet at night. Comfy bed, nice view, and good facilities. We could also use the communsl swimming pool which had a life guard. We were perfectly located for the nearby Favorita parkrun, and the amazing experience of the football match with 25,000 spectators.Also the Francia Metro Station is only 15mins walk away for easy access to the city centre.
