Cristina is a great host. She took the time to provide us with tips, was always available to help us, but without being "intrusive". Superb, clean and tastefully decorated apartment in an old building (with elevator). Ideally located in the old city, next to bars, restaurants and landmarks. Nice breakfast.

Cristina was absolutely wonderful. Very relaxed and perfectly positioned in the middle of bars and restaurants. Breakfast was fresh fruit and bakery elements from bakers just outside. Everything you want here, we had a brilliant 3 nights here, thank you Cristina

Nothing

Everything. Second time I’ve stayed with Christina. She’s a wonderful person with lots of personality and went over the top to make sure we were comfortable and eating well.

It was a little difficult to find without knowing what to expect. When you enter the outer courtyard you may only see large wooden doors (though the number 5 is plainly visible). I’d suggest you ask Cristina to tell you what name to look for on the panel of buzzers.

A very spacious and comfortable property. It is Cristina’s home which she shares with guests in one suite and two individual rooms. Perfectly situated on a major pedestrianized street in the historic center. Cristina is extremely helpful and kind.

We where there on a Friday night in the automn and it was quite loud as bars are close by. So with somewhat open windows we had to sleep with earplugs and even with those we heard the noise.

The rooms are wonderful and spacious. Breakfast was lovely and the host very kind. It is in the city center so everything can be reached by foot.

Cristina was amazing and loved the location.

Being very close to a very, very loud precinct, you need ear plugs to get a decent night's sleep. Breakfasts were hit and miss, mainly miss.

Cristina is a great host. The apartment was beautifully decorated, with original art, and great music. Very secure. There are also facilities to leave luggage which was super helpful.

The property doesn’t have anything wrong, but it is in the city centre so you should bring earplugs if you travel during the summer.

The most amazing apartament, a hidden gem in the chaos of Palermo, it transports you to another world and you can completely relax.

I will say that it is loud at night — didn’t bother me too much but it is important to know. The host left earbuds and it is really out of her control.

Host was so wonderful and welcoming! The apartment was simply stunning. Would 100% stay again.

Everything was great.

Great location within walking distance of bars, restaurants, shops and attractions in Palermo. I really enjoyed exploring everything around the area. The apartment is large and beautifully decorated. The owner, Cristina, has excellent taste and her home is very welcoming. There is a lift, which is very much appreciated. No climbing stairs! My room and bed were very comfortable, and the common rooms are quite spacious. Cristina gave me a map and marked some of her favorite places for me. I appreciated that, as it included several excellent places that weren't already on my list.

Nothing to complain about.

I'd say perfect location to stay in Palermo, round the corner of the building you can reach the Vuccria market and a short walk to Quattro Canti, etc., airport bus is just 5-mins on foot away from the apartment. The onwer Cristina is a frank, good hearted person, and I do appreciate her great help facilitating my check-in as I flew in Palermo quite late at night. Look forward to coming back soon 😊💖

As I say, in my answer, above to the question about location, there is a problem, which is not of the hosts, making and is out of her control. A problem which must affect all the hotels and bed and breakfasts in the neighborhood. The local authorities and police tolerate ludicrous, very loud music in a Public Square very late into the night every night of the week, this is a political problem that suggests, very sadly, that organized crime still enjoys a free hand in Palermo

Christina is a very gracious and kind host. She has opened up a magnificent historic home to be a very charming bed and breakfast. She offers superb lights, continental breakfast of fruit, salad, yogurt and delicious pastries with piping hot coffee and a good selection of teas the home is very tastefully decorated, the rooms are very private.

Nothing Everythhing was wonderful

Christina is a very elegant international woman wiho had a fascinating life. We were guests in her huge apartment in a historic palazzo in a marvelouos location where we could walk. She provided us with important information about Palermo. We were in the heart of Palermo old city. Her apartment is on the 3rd floor and unfortunately the elevator was broken and it was a national holiday. She arranged for a strong young man to carry our bags up and the next day the elevator was fixed We upgraded to an ensuite room and the bathroom was tremendous. Christina arranged for a ride so we could pick up our rental car for the remainder of our trip in Sicily. In Palermo make sure to visit the MARIONETTE theater with museum of internatiional marionettes-Antonio Pasqualino Puppet museum

Cristina's apt is full of charm and all the great vibes of Sicily. We were warmly greeted and she felt like my auntie away from home. Breakfast was incredible, made with love and care. Best pastries and fruit, everything was just perfect and delightful! She also introduced us to the best tour guide, Gigi who showed us all around Palermo and beyond. Pro Tip: Ask Cristina for Gigi's contact for great tours!

Perfect location in the middle of Palermo’s active street scene. We stayed in a lovely, private suite, accessed through a beautiful living area. Our host was so welcoming and went out of her way to make sure we had everything we needed.

Nothing to complain about.

Cristina helped me as a first time, non-Italian speaking visitor, to Palermo in the following kind ways: 1. Organised a very reliable personal private taxi driver (Mrs. Gigliola) to greet me at the airport who actually walked me to the front door of the house which was difficult to find in the dark as the police had blocked of the road for a short period for a festival. My connecting flight was also delayed but this was not a problem as we text through Whatsapp. 2. Offered me a welcome glass of nice Sicilian wine. 3.Pre booked an English speaking restaurant and walked me down several narrow streets in the dark and personally spoke to the owner. She came back 30 minutes later to ensure I was relocated to the best streetside table for my first enjoyable meal in Palermo! 4. Advised me where to visit a nearby leather craftsman to buy a beautiful handmade original backpack plus I got a short view of the workshop and small discount on the price. Thank you very much!
