Mauro's place is a perfect homebase for a trip to Palermo if you want to stay in a clean, comfortable apartment located in a neighborhood that is central and vibrant. The historic Vucciria market, which turns into an incredibly fun spot at night with bars and street food, is a five minute walk away. And all of the major sites and museums are a 10-20 minute walk away. The apartment is exactly as described, and it met of all our specific needs: the AC works well, the shower pressure is great, and the bed is comfortable. Mauro is also a fantastic host who gave us great recommendations and always responded quickly to messages. A perfect stay! :)
