Everything about our stay was unpleasant. First of all, we were told to meet our hostess on a street corner, so we parked the car, unloaded our bags, and waited. When she showed up late, she told us to repack the car and follow her to the actual apartment. So, off we went driving through the streets of Palermo. When we finally arrived, I was disappointed with the one-room we were given. No windows, except for in the bathroom (and that opened up to nothing), although there was a door to a patio that we could use. Unfortunately, the handle was broken and we couldn't open it. The shower head was broken as well and the floors were also wet as they had obviously just finished cleaning it before we got there (probably why she was late). To their credit, someone did come the next day to fix these things.

We were told we had to pay cash for the room, even though on their website it said they accept credit cards and I had guaranteed the reservation with my Mastercard. We then had to trek through the city on foot to find a bank machine so I could withdraw the money needed to pay for the room. That night, it was difficult to sleep because we could clearly hear the television of the neighbors next door (and their screaming kids), and somewhere in the building was a dog that would NOT stop barking.

After two days in the room, our bags and the clothes in them were musty and damp, as were the sheets on the bed. I was so glad to get out. The topper, however, was that friends of ours were also staying in the city and they found a fantastic full-sized apartment (living room, kitchen, separate bedrooms) for 25 euro a night less than what we were paying!

Really not a place I would recommend. The only saving grace was that we spent so much time sightseeing in and around Palermo that we hardly spent any time in the room.

I just want to say that this was the best experience ever! the stay was like a hotel stay and more. We were two of us but they gave us literally a flat ! We were very comfortable there for the whole weekend. Donatella was an amazing help and even showed us the main places to go to on a map and the buses that would take us all over the city. She told us that Casa Giuditta was fresh completely restructured.
We turned around even in the late night and we never felt unsafe. I think the area is safe and there are several friendly locals. We bought fruit and fish in the nearby street shop and we felt literally at home.
I think that for the price we payed is impossible to find a place so central with wifi connection, kitchen, washing machine, Sat tv, very new bathroom, air conditioning,. They also offered us breakfast . Thank you Donatella !

We very much like the central location, the cleanliness, the multi language staff and their kindness. To have washing machine and complete kitchen was a nice plus. Very reasonable price for what they offer.
We fully immersed in the local atmosphere, to do this was impossible in a standard hotel room.
We will come back for sure.…

We stayed at this apartment for 4 nights and I really have no complaints about the property or the owners but...
Make sure that you have made contact with the owners and confirm the time you expect to be there and where to meet. You WILL need a mobile phone, trust me.
We booked through lastminute.com were told nothing else and thats why we were left scratching our heads in front of an apartment building with no one around to speak to.

Firstly I had no idea that we were supposed to call the owners on arrival, this was not made clear by either the owners or lastminute.com. An improvement in communication is needed.
We found the place eventually as it is tucked away on a very small road which is not on most maps. Luckily we spoke to a very friendly cafe/bar owner who gave us the property owners contact details, he must see many puzzled tourists wandering around nearby!
It took some time to finally make contact but eventually we met up and again there was some confusion in whether we needed to pay - we had already paid in full through lastminute and surely the owners should know this. Only little things I know but it can be stressful when you've been travelling for the whole day.

Otherwise the apartment was great, nice balcony, some croissants etc in the kitchen, not exactly super modern but this is Palermo after all and you get to stay right in the middle of the locals. Plenty of kitchen equipment if you want to cook and I'd recommend you do go to the central food markets and pick up some of the fresh fish and vegetables, amazing quality.
The location of the apartment is fine, not too far from city centre (train bus etc), probably about 15 min walk, you'll find your way around after a day or two. Four days was long enough to see this town.
