4/10 Poor

Liked: Cleanliness
Disliked: Check-in, communication, location

Very clean on the loudest street with AC only in 1 bedroom

Attn: house has air conditioning in 1 bedroom ONLY!!! The other king room and single room do not have air conditioning. Living room ac needs Freon so barely cools. From Feb 3, had zero communication/replies from owner. No check in instructions day of July 8. Had to chat 45 min with customer service to find a contact number when owner did not respond check in day. Owner standing at door at arrival and had obviously been smoking in house. Cigarette butts in kitchen and bathrooms. 2 towels only for 4 adults. Broken caffè cups, only 1 bowl, otherwise kitchen was passing. We have family in this town that found us a room at sold out local hotel. Stayed one night of the worst stay I’ve ever had with 95 degrees in bedroom and cars racing up and down the street. Left after 1 night

8/10 Good

Liked: Cleanliness, location
The home was extremely clean and photos represent the rooms and furnishings well. The hosts are friendly and met us when we arrived. They welcomed us by making us espressos then walked us through the home sharing the location of towels, linens, washing machine, etc. With that said, please note, this is a 3 story home with 2 of the 3 bedrooms (and 1 full bathroom) on the third floor. The other bedroom and full bath is on the second floor. While this posed no issues for us, if you had a person that has difficulty climbing stairs, it could be a challenge. Additionally the house is right off a couple busy streets. From the front door to the street the distance is separated by only a 14-16 inch sidewalk. This, provides ample noise from traffic and people outside talking. 2 bedrooms have A/C in the room, and one does not, which caused that room to be much warmer than any of the others. The listing said internet was available in all rooms. There was NO WiFi or Internet, which was disappointing. Cell service (utilizing USA based Verizon and AT&T) was fair, but we did experience some brief periods of limited, or no service. Communication responses from the host (before check in) was a bit slow but did come in time to know to call her when we were close to the home. Our driver made the call for us as we unfortunately don’t speak Italian and they don’t speak English. After that, I used Google Translate and we did fine (in person or through the VRBO app).

Posizione strategica

Ci siamo trovati molto bene, in cinque persone abbiamo avuto spazio a sufficienza, essendo la casa sviluppata su 3 piani (sconsiglio valigie grandi, non essendoci ascensore). La casa si trova abbastanza vicina al centro del paese, e vicino ci sono molti negozi di alimentari e macellerie, raggiungibili a piedi.

Great community and beautiful home

Ninfa and her husband were extremely accommodating and very friendly! The entire community of Altavilla was very welcoming and every person we met was extremely friendly. The bars and restaurants we visited were fantastic. The inside of the home was beautiful, couldnt of asked for a better place to stay at such a reasonable rate. Our family will be back to stay at this location anytime we travel to Palermo.
