Guest Reviews
- Ursula (9/5): Superschöner Kurztrip - beste Lage ! - Beste Lage ,großes , modernes und sauberes Appartment , einfacher Check-in ! Alles bestens ! Alles top!
- Mónica (10/5): - El apartamento está muy lindo puesto, todo nuevo. Ademas esta muy bien ubicado. Y los anfitriones son super atentos, siempre dispuestos a dar una mano. Como es usualmente Italia, tiene varios pisos de escalera.
- Graham (9/5): Great location and superb host Salvatore who could do enough for us. - Great location. Central for everything. Stairs were plentiful
- Maria del Pilar (10/5): - Muchos detalles para hacer la estancia agradable . Cuidado y limpio Ligero olor a humedad en una de las habitaciones
- Elita (9/5): Tutto bello - L'appartamento è davvero bello, pulito e molto organizzato.Si trova in pieno centro ed è ben collegato con tutta la città.
Carola e Salvatore sono stati davvero sempre disponibili e molto gentili. L'unica pecca sono la rampa delle scale, perché l'appartamento è situato al secondo piano.
- Vincent (9/5): Enfin, une perle - Nous avons adoré cet établissement. Il correspondait parfaitement à notre attente. Très propre, un hôte au petit soin, on avait une bouteille de vin sur la table en cadeau, un entretien qui fait penser à un service hôtelier. Soigné, digne d'un 4 étoiles avec plus de matériel qu'espérer. Prises usb aux lits. La clim dans toutes les pièces.... Merci aux hôtes. Le bruit des voisins et l'état extérieur de la ville. Place de parking compliquées... Mais ça les hôtes n'y peuvent rien.

- Ferry (10/5): Super! - Dicht bij alle bezienswaardigheden, schoon en mooi ingericht appartement. Fijne bedden!
- Ingrid (9/5): Comfortable clean and good value for travellers with teenagers. - As a single mom of two teenagers the property had everything I looked for: right in the centre so that my boys could be independent and I could slow down or rest, plenty of touristic / shopping and food / night life options within 10 min walking, and the property itself was great: comfortable spacious super clean and everything I needed for a comfortable landing - from a step by step check in to washing powder for a quick refresh. Not to forget a good Wi-Fi ! I simply very satisfied. I can’t think of anything.
- Karen (8/5): A comfortable secure accomodation in a good locat up n central to old town - Location, prompt responses by hosts, bonus taxi service available and neat an clean presentation
- Nicola (10/5): Fantastic apartment and 10/10 recommend - Great central location and beautiful apartment - great amenities and everything you could think of or need. Amazing communication and hosts couldn’t do enough for us. Pleasure to stay here.
- Ellen (10/5): This apartment is very well appointed, very large, has everything we needed. You will not be disappointed with a stay he -
- Tony (9/5): I would highly recommend it. - The property was well appointed, close to the historic centre of Palermo and well maintained.
- Celia (9/5): Superb - Very nice apartement , spacious, clean, well organized, with air conditioning.
Very convenient location: < 10 min walk to the Quattro Canti and to the airport shuttlebus bus stop!
Perfectly equiped for kids: baby bed, high chair, children tableware
Rather quiet since there are no restaurants/bars etc in the street (you can sometimes hear noise from the main road Via Maqueda if it is very loud)
Not a problem for us but you have to carry your little children & stuff up the stairs
We would definitely stay here again and higly recommend it !
- Michał (10/5): Exceptional -
- Deborah (10/5): Thank you for a lovely place to stay while visiting vibrant Palermo. - The location is superb. The balconies face the opposite houses in a very narrow Palermo street, but with views to the Teatro Massimo in one direction and to the hills just outside Palermo in the other. The host reached out to us on Whatsapp with a complete explanation of how to enter the apartment and was totally accessible for any questions we had. Small grocery stores are very close to the property and there is a Lidl store not far away - worth visiting at least once if you are staying for a few days. The apartment is spotless and with every amenity, all very new and well looked after. The sitting room is not large (the bedrooms are huge) but completely adequate, especially since we spent most of our time exploring Palermo. There is an umbrella! We arrived in a downpour but only saw it afterwards. Well done for providing such a lovely apartment. It was not a problem for us, but for anyone with limited ability it is important to know that the apartment is on the second floor up staircases that become progressively narrower. This rather adds to its charm, but could be a problem for some.
- Jonathan (10/5): Fabulous apartment in amazing location - It’s in a brilliant location and was spotlessly clean. The owners were very responsive and couldn’t do enough for you. We would highly recommend this apartment for a stay in Palermo. Bring earplugs for a weekend stay as there was outside noise late into the early morning. But don’t let this stop you from staying!
- Špela (9/5): Superb -
- Sarah (10/5): Fabulous location and helpful hosts. - A spotlessly clean apartment with two large bedrooms. It provided everything we needed and our host was very helpful. Parking was just down the road too and they helped us with the ZTL. A fabulous base for exploring Palermo and the surrounds. Nothing at all!
- Kornel (10/5): Exceptional - Very nice and helpful hosts. The mattresses are very comfortable. The apartment is new and clean.
- Magdalena (10/5): Exceptional -
- Michelle (9/5): Gem in the city. - Amazing location, large bedrooms with high ceilings, very clean, good air conditioning, washer was helpful, kitchen well appointed. The black out shutters worked so well we slept through our alarm. Helpful staff who sent detailed check in instructions that were easy to follow and great restaurant recommendations. Would definitely recommend. The pillows and bed were adequate but could have been more comfortable. I would still stay there again without a second thought.
- Laima (10/5): First class accommodation - The apt was exactly as described only better. It was perfectly styled, super clean and had everything you could need. The bedrooms were so big and bright and airy, so comfortable, great beds and linen. The bathroom was large, fitted with beautiful products and a great shower. The apt was in a perfect location. Kitchen, living were clean and bright and also had everything new and modern. Just wonderful. Like many buildings in Italy it was up a few flights of stairs but woth it. Close to everything. I can't speak more highly of it. The host, Salvatore, was so helpful with anything we needed. He went above and beyond. Everything was perfect!
- Apratim (10/5): Exceptional - The location is the best, and the host is great.
- Diane (10/5): The apartment is in a very convenient location and yet enough of a distance from the noisiest parts of the city. Salvato - The apartment is lovely. It is newly renovated, spacious, clean and very well appointed. Our host Salvatore went out of his way to make sure our every need was met.
- Barbara (10/5): Very good stay. The apartment was fully equipped which was very nice when you travel for few days. -
- Dominika (10/5): Exceptional host, prime location, and a spotless, well-equipped apartment—Downtown Maqueda is the best place to stay in - Salvatore is the best host ever, and Downtown Maqueda is certainly one of the best apartments I have stayed in. The apartment is brand new, super clean, and equipped with everything you might need (even personal care items like band-aids and hair bands—anything you can think of). The location is excellent, just a few minutes away from Quattro Canti. Salvatore is always ready to help, any time of day. It’s truly the best place to stay in Palermo. If I ever return, I will definitely stay there again.
- Lena (10/5): Exceptional - Great stay! Had everything we needed. Perfect location. Great price
- Walter (9/5): I would recommend this place to visit the city. - Very close to the centre of Palermo.
The property was clean and well equipped.
The owner provided a good explanation and were reacting quickly to any question.
- Jovan (10/5): Exceptional - Great location, very comfortable and clean apartment. Highly reccommendations
- Kristie (10/5): Perfect location, spacious apartment, and great host! - Everything! The location was great, the beds were very comfortable, the decor was nice, and the host was very helpful! The apartment was also very spacious and came stocked with ingredients for a pasta dinner, and the kitchen came stocked with everything that we could need. The bathrooms also came well stocked too, with a flat iron, blow dryer, bandaids, and other toiletries. The host gave lots of recommendations and was very responsive with any questions that we had. 10/10 would recommend! We also really enjoyed the balconies and being able to hang dry our clothes and towels from the beach. Parking was a bit difficult, but the host gave options for where to park although street parking was much more affordable.
- Farrah (10/5): Perfect stay in Palermo - Very comfortable apartment with all necessities needed for our short stay in Palermo. Perfect location to all major sites. Host provided location for parking which was very close to the apartment.
- Sarahr (9/5): HOST WITH THE MOST. Wonderfully warm welcome to Sicily, smack in the centre of the historic district - Super easy key collection. Location was smack bang in the middle of the historic district. Parking (especially once connected via Whatsapp) at the private park 2mins away was easy. The host could simply not have been more helpful or responsive, even after we left Palermo to Favignana he even shared more tips for our onward journey!! We were so impressed at the hospitality and gave us a really warm feeling towards Sicily from the get go. A free bottle of wine in the fridge, crackers out for the children, cot and high chair provided. Really great customer service. Downside of being so close to the thick of things is that it got NOISY at night. Some people think it's okay to park outside with music blaring at 1am on a Monday night. On balance it still paid off to be located so close to the historic district centre as it made everything so accessible but I'd recommend to pack earplugs (and the only thing that made me deduct a point for Comfort and slightly hesitate to say it's family friendly as it did disturb our kiddos a little)
- Hanna (10/5): It was one of the neatest and well-prepared apartments for rent I’ve ever been in! Honestly! - It was fully equiped, very clean, excellent stay!!
- Molly (10/5): Spacious apartment in a great location - Really well equipped with everything needed to cook, as well as toiletries (including shampoo, conditioner, hair dryer and straightener). The beds are all really comfy and the shower is great with good pressure. Check in was super easy too and the hosts communicated with us really well. The location was really central and felt authentic. It was all great!
- Michael (10/5): Central but quiet - Central location but still relatively quiet, the apartment has two desks and good internet access, which made it a good choice for my wife and I to telework. Everything is new and well equipped. Salvatore was very responsive and welcomed us with wine and biscuits. I recommend this apartment. The apartment is in the historical centre where buildings rarely have lifts, so be prepared to climb three flights of stairs.
- Paraskevi (9/5): Excellent stay - Excellent location, in the historic center / pedestrian area - but in a quiet street- no noise from bars/ people
Excellent equipment in the appartement- all new - confi beds
Comfortable stay , good internet connection
Very nice history, ready to serve - he immediately replaced the router as WiFi wasn’t stable , he added a safe
I would recommend it /
