I stayed at Mariano's place for a month in the winter. The place was perfect and had everything I needed.
THE HOST: He was super responsive and communicative. One of the best hosts I've ever had with Airbnb. Whenever I needed something, he responded right away. Mariano is a very kind person - he even let me check in a few days early to accommodate for my schedule.
THE PLACE: It looks exactly as pictured, and has everything you need and more. The heater worked well and kept me warm during the cold winter. There was a weekly cleaning service that kept the place sparkling clean. The bed was comfortable, and there were several pillows to choose from. There is a gym on the top floor with spectacular views of the city.
THE LOCATION: It's a great location, within walking distance to everything in Palermo Soho. It's right on a main street so you can hear the traffic, but that didn't bother me. There is a gym right across the street (Gimnasio XXL) that I signed up for.
