I recently stayed in a charming Sicilian apartment right in the heart of Palermo. The location was fantastic, making it easy to explore all the key sights within walking distance. The hospitality was heartwarming, especially when the housekeeper surprised us with a bottle of wine for our wedding. On the downside, while the apartment itself had a lovely balcony view, the lack of windows made it feel a bit closed off. Overall, it was a good value stay.
