Staying in Mondello was a welcome break from the fast paced touristy cities we had been visiting before. Dario's apartment was a special treat- while a bit on the smaller side, the top deck patio more than made up for it! It has an amazing view and is very close to the beach. We met up with Dario in the square and he showed us all we needed to know about the apartment. Communication wasn't as smooth as some other experiences we had before we arrived, but when we did meet up with him things were fine. He recommended taking the taxi from the Palermo airport but we realized after arriving we could have taken the bus to Mondello, so we recommend trying that out first before spending the 45E on a taxi. Overall it was a great experience.
