My two friends and I loved staying at Claudios and Silvias apartment. It is located at a very lively area with lots of cafes/bars/restaurants nearby. At night it can be a bit loud when sitting in the living room - but sleeping in the room was no problem. We recommend renting a car for the stay, if your planning to go to the mondello beach. We took the bus which is a bit far away from the apt (about 15 min. Walk), it was always packed with people.
