We were delayed driving through Palermo and didnt actually make it to Marias house until 7pm and she had to leave work to let us in. This was no problem for her and she waited while we discussed Palermo and what to do in Palermo for the next few days in broken Italian, English and Spanish.....but we got the jist.

Maria was a great host and I would certainly recommend anyone who visits Palermo to stay with her. Her house was beautiful and safe and very easy to get into town and Mondello (if you wanted to visit the beach). The wi fi was good. Breakfast was basic, just some toast and coffee but her homemade jams were very very tasty.

I would visit Maria again if I was visiting Palermo.
