Apartment has everything you need for a relaxed rest after visiting the busy city. The owner personally received us to inform us on all we need to know.

Spacious apartment in charming neighborhood

We enjoyed this comfortable, spacious apartment in the vibrant Kalso neighborhood for our week in Palermo. Chiara met us and gave us an orientation to the apartment and local spots. Comfortable beds, AC, balconies were nice amenities. There is a fantastic bakery just around the corner for our morning cornetti. We ate in many terrific restaurants just a few minutes stroll away. And we were able to reach the train station, waterfront, and many landmarks on foot. Would definitely stay here again!

It is a vibrant part of town, with a lot of restaurants and really interesting artists shops all around. There is so much to discover in this area that you may miss if you're not staying there. The apartment itself is perfect...clean, comfortable, spacious and well stocked. The owner is very easy to work with and very kind and helpful to travelers.

Perfect Palermo, Perfect Apartment

My wife and I spent 5 nights in Palermo and stayed at this charming apartment. From the moment we decided to book, our host Chiara was helpful, polite, and accommodating. We altered our booking, asked questions, sought advice about the city, and each time Chiara showed patience and professionalism. It is fair to say that Palermo might not be everyone’s cup of tea, however, we simply fell in love with the city and had a truly wonderful break. A large part of this was due to the location, comfort, and cleanliness of Chiara’s apartment. It is so handy for all the main attractions, whilst still feeling like a quiet residential retreat. It has a homely warmth and lets you feel relaxed and comfortable after a day of sightseeing or a night sampling Palermo’s amazing food and nightlife.In summary, if you are considering visiting Palermo, don’t think twice. If you do visit, don’t stay anywhere else, this place is perfect.

Beautiful apartment!

This is a beautifully decorated place in the historical district of Palermo. It had everything that we needed, however we did need to purchase extra toilet paper and soap. Great A/C, wifi and amenities. Chiara met us for check in and was so helpful providing a map and recommendations for the area. She was always excellent with communication. Unfortunately, the washing machine broke while we were there and she had a technician there to fix it the next day and even took our clothes and washed and dried them herself to return to us prior to our departure. Take advantage of her offer to provide prearranged taxi service to and from the airport. It was so helpful! Great restaurants close by, and location was perfect! I highly recommend!!

Great accommodation in the perfect location

This was my first stop on a month long trip to Europe and it definitely set a high bar. As a host, Chiara was easy to correspond with, she was able to arrange a taxi for both our arrival and departure as well as provide great recommendations on places to eat and things to do. We arrived late on a Saturday night (9:30 pm) and Chiara was there to personally greet us. She took the time to show us a map of Palermo and provide a ton of recommendations. She even left us some great pastries in the fridge as well as a cold bottle of water. I loved the location of the property. It was in easy walking distance to all the major tourist sites - only small downfall was the noise from the back alley. She has some pretty noisy neighbors. Oh, and don't be surprised by all the scooters zooming past at 2 am in the morning. The accommodation itself was comfortable and exactly as pictured. It has everything you need for a short stay. The bed in the master room is comfortable. The showers are a bit small, but that is to be expected from Italy. We had no issues using the washing machine and the dishwasher was a great benefit too. The sofa couch I think has seen better days and is starting to show some wear and tear, but still very comfortable and I feel asleep on it several times, so no complaints on comfortability. All in all, I would highly recommend this place to friends and family and if I was ever to come back to Palermo, this would be my go to spot!

Kalsa im Winter

Chiara hat uns nett empfangen und alles notwendige erklärt.die Wohnung liegt im 1. Stock und sehr zentral zwischen Via Roma (Busse ) und Meer, viele nette Bars und Restaurants sind gleich um die Ecke, aber durch den kleinen Platz mit Palmen war es ruhig...allerdings waren wir Anfang Januar dort,wenn nicht so viel los ist.Als am 2. Tag in der Nachbarwohnung sehr laute Umbauarbeiten begannen hat sich Chiara sofort gekümmert und dies abstellen können.Im Wohnzmmer konnten wir gut entspannen, das Bett im 1. Schlafzimmer war mit 1,60 m etwas schmal für uns Ältere,diss Schlafzimmer wird von einem riesigen Schrank dominiert und war für unseren Geschmack etwas nüchtern eingerichtetZur Abreise empfahl uns Chiara einen Freund mit Flughafenshuttle Service, was prima geklappt. Dies könnten andere Reisende vielleicht auch für die Anreise nutzen? Ist deutlich günstiger als ein Taxi.Da wir gern selbst kochen: Geschirr und Küchengeräte könnten mal ergänzt werden...Ansonsten: vielen Dank an Chiara!
