Grazie di cuore per la sua splendida recensione! siamo felici che abbia apprezzato la pulizia, il comfort e la posizione della struttura. E' stato un piacere ospitarvi e speriamo di darle nuovamente il benvenuto a Palermo. A presto.
L’appartamento è ristrutturato di recente, curato e confortevole. La posizione, nel suggestivo quartiere della Zisa, è strategica per raggiungere il centro storico e i principali monumenti di Palermo. Da non perdere la colazione alla vicina pasticceria Cappello, strepitosa. La host signora Patrizia è gentilissima e ci ha dato ottimi consigli.
