Maurizio was very welcoming! His flat is spacious and incredibly well located (just of the Piazza Verdi) in the old town of Palermo, which is very lively and full of things to do. We had the pleasant surprise of the flat being well stocked upon our arrival (plenty of food in the kitchen cupboards and even some suncream and other cosmetics in the bathroom!). It got quite hot when we were staying there but that was all solved by a very effective air conditioning unit in the bedroom. Also, it proved very useful to have two bathrooms! The flat itself is quite pretty, with a beautiful ceiling in the living room, and has windows onto one of the main streets of Palermo's old town (yet the noise was really not too bad, it would usually die down around midnight). I would absolutely recommend it to anyone, my friend and I had a lovely time and would not hesitate to come back! Maurizio's flat was a huge part of the enjoyment and ease of our stay in Palermo!
