Still, it’s a small price to pay for the location.

Home truths
At full occupancy, two guests will be sleeping on the sofa bed in the living area.
As both bathrooms are en-suite, guests staying on the sofa bed will need to share an en-suite with guests in the bedroom.
If you're travelling with little ones, your host can provide a high chair for free. You'll need to request it in advance.
Parking in Palermo can be tricky, so we recommend sticking to easily accessible public transport where possible.
