We had a wonderful time in Palermo and Mauro was an excellent host. He met us at the stop for the airport bus, which was very close to his place, and he provided us with lots of information on places to visit and good restaurants. La Galleria restaurant was really lovely. The bar on top of the nearby Rinascente has wonderful views of the city. The apartment was very clean and also very close to the main areas of the city. We would love to return some day. Thanks Mauro.
