Alberto's place was a bit tricky to find, but indeed well located. Alberto is friendly and informative, giving tips on where to go to get a sense of Palermo as a culturally complex city, with great streets, architecture and food. My room was a bit clean and cheerfully painted, but a bit dingy in terms of natural light. But as I was in Palermo to see the city, I didn't mind , and the bed was comfortable. It's also possible to cook, if purchases at the tantalising markets need to be turned into meals. Alberto is a friendly host.
