La Trinacria mare

La ubicacion cerca a restaurantes, supermercado, a la playa.

Friendly hosts

No sufficient drier in the kitchen, noisy neighbourhood.

The flat is functional and offers everything you need. Air-conditioning in the kitchen/living room and a fan in the kitchen and the bedroom. The kitchen is well equipped. The host ladies were extremely helpful and did everything they could to make our stay good. We found a couple of nice restaurants and a supermarket which was good. Sisu has good food and drinks.

The soundproofing in the apartment is nonexistent. You can hear absolutely everything from the flat above. It was unfortunate that at the time of our stay the flat above was undergoing a reconstruction so we experienced a terrible noise every single morning and also during the day. We understand that this was not a fault of the hosts but believe that even with regular people staying in the upper flat you will feel like they live with you. We did not have a chance to relax. The flat is also pretty dark and damp even if you open the windows. The location is not very convenient. The buses run ok during the day but stop around 8:30pm and if you stay in the city centre for a dinner you end up paying about €15-20 for a taxi. Realistically it takes 45 minutes to get to the centre as you have to change buses once and they don't run on time. The beach is pretty dirty and full of broken glass and garbage and the surroundings are also pretty dirty.

Location and facilities were outstanding, plenty of nearby shops and transportation options. Palermo tourist sites were easily accessed using local bus service which ran every 20 minutes. Fast internet!

Plenty of local "color" in that you are in a working class Sicilian neighborhood, which means dogs barking, couples "discussing" and the occasional vespa zooming by.

The owner was really nice and welcoming. We had everything se needed.

Nothing to add.
