Great host, very helpful, tourist guide and kind of local patriot. Staying at Alberto's place gives a great opportunity toi learn about culture of Palermo - not only the touristic highlights (deespite there are really lots of them there), but also local habits, food markets, street food stands, etc. And his fridge is hull of excellent local beer. The only con of staying at his place that the sleeping room has no windows - however anyway his appartement has a very nice and colourful atmosphere, so if only you don't suffer heavy astma I trully recommend it.
