We had a wonderful few days in Palermo staying at Angelo's place. The location is excellent, within easy walking distance of shops, restaurants, attractions and the sea. We visited Mondello beach on one of the days, which was a cheap 30 minute bus ride away.
The apartment itself was beautiful and more spacious than we expected. The terrace was amazing, and we spent most late afternoons up there with a beer before dinner.
Angelo's cousin picked us up and dropped us off at the airport for much less than a taxi, and gave us lots of good tips, as did Angelo.
All in all, would highly recommend this place if you are visiting Palermo.
