We actually didn't meet Luciano, but his father Julio. He was so nice, met us on the 1st of january at 6.30 in the morning! The room is great, surrounded by a small tropical forest (mosquitos like it as well). In the house the atmosphere is great, Julio and his friends are all interesting and inspiring people. He let us use the kitchen and the washing machine, very useful if you travel with a baby as we did. In the house lives a cat as well, Josephina, but she is not allowed to enter the room for the guests. The only Dangerous aspect is the stairs and the lift, we really had to pay attention to every single step of our daughter, but they are fixing the problem and if you don't have kids just ignore this comment. The location Barracas is interesting and authentic, not touristic at all, 20 min away from Palermo by car and more by bus.
