Silvio's place was great. We stayed there for 5 nights and were very comfortable. It was very clean, modern, and stylish. The internet connection was good. The location was great - very close (5-minute walk) to the cathedral and the Capo market and close (15-minute walk) to the Palazzo Normanni and Teatro Massimo. Silvio was very responsive when we had questions about the apartment (e.g., we didn't know how to start the washing machine). Andrea, Silvio's son helped us check in and spoke good english. He also gave us a recommendation for a local restaurant which was delicious. Great stay and definitely would go back.
