La Casetta del piano di sopra

Spacious apartment with a kitchen and washing machine.

The apartment was on a narrow, dirty street, and the noise from the neighbors made it nearly impossible to sleep. The bathroom had a terrible smell that even air fresheners couldn’t fix. I had to hold my breath every time I was using it. The hosts were unfriendly and uncooperative. When my boyfriend wanted to join last minute, they tried to charge an unreasonable fee. I paid for a full month but ended up sleeping there just a few nights. It may be cheap, but it’s definitely not worth the trouble.

It was close to main road leading up to Politeama. So well connected via bus. Good value for money.

The whole procedure of getting there for the first time should have been much better organised. If you come to Palermo for the first time, walking in an unknown area with no other communication than through whatsapp (especially if you havent got data for some reason as it was out in all of Palermo) is actually frightening. I would have wished for a better pre-arrival info package and also due dilligence to follow up if everything has been ok etc. Both was sketchy and really not ideal. This could have been avoided through better and more thorough pre arrival information. E.g. prompting the client to download a google map of Palermo. Giving clear instructions which streets to follow in case of a signal loss. Give an emergency procedure if you do get lost in the tiny streets etc. It wasnt the case. Not happy with that. Luckily I was helped by two very friendly citizens who helped me find my destination. Service from that side could definitely improve. Once arrived, I was able to communicate with staff. However beforehand, nobody seemed too bothered that I had no signal and could not find the address. I wasn't asked if I had found the way alright. However, having said that, the accomodation itself is good. Simple interior, and overall good value for money. Bed has decent mattress. Aircondition is a definite plus. It would have been a nice touch to have a personalised welcome card, but maybe I have been spoilt in the past. Otherwise, just a thought.

Apartment worth recommending. Apartment worth recommending. I spent 2 amazing weeks there, which will definitely remain in my memory forever. Although the first impression may be questionable (I mean the surrounding area), subsequent impressions were only positive. The apartment is small but very cozy, fully equipped with a large balcony and an incredibly comfortable bed. Great location!!! There are bus stops just a few hundred meters away from which you can get literally everywhere: to the station, to the center and to the beach. The contact with the owner was great, I felt fully taken care of :). Thank you

Everything was great!!!

This apartment is really nice, also the location is good!

I got invited in a WhatsApp group with a lot of people, without any introduction. Contact with just one person would have been easier. Also the address in booking.com was not correct, so it was difficult to find the entrance door. I had to ask locals to help me.
