Marcello brings so much humanity to the entire process of "renting a room." I have stayed in many different Airbnb locations, this was by far the best experience I've had. Marcello cares deeply about his guests -- and it shows. (When you get there you'll see the hundreds of thank you notes left on his fridge by grateful visitors.)
The apartment is perfectly situated in an excellent location. Easy walking distance to everything -- including the incredible Royal Palace/Palatine Chapel (one of the most underrated things to see in Italy, in my opinion, Stunning!). The apartment is also quiet at night. For a light sleeper like me, that's key. The photos are exactly as the space is: a nice size apartment with everything you need for a relaxing stay. Wifi is also consistently fast and Marcello checks-in with WhatsApp messages daily to make sure everything is going well.
I want to go back to Palermo very soon...and Marcello, "Palermo's diplomat to the Airbnb world," made my first visit there all the more memorable.
