Mauro's apartment is located right in the center of Palermo so it's a wonderful spot for visiting the city. All the main sites are within a 15-20 min walk and it is close to many good restaurants - Mauro loves to host and has plenty of recommendations for his guests. The apartment is best suited for a couple though the pull-out couch becomes a bed for an extra person or two. It has AC and a washing machine, both of which were nice to have. Note that the apartment is on the top floor of the building so you'll have to walk up several flights of stairs.
