The stay was OK. The location is great and close to the beach as well as restaurants. You can reach everything by foot and we enjoyed trying out lots of restaurants. Unfortunately, our nights weren't very good. The dogs in the neighborhood are very loud and begin barking every few hours for around 15 minutes, setting eachother off. We really weren't used to that and it woke us up every time. The mattress wasn't very comfortable. On a positive note, there's AC and it keeps the room cool.
When we arrived, it looked quite clean and tidy. But we weren't provided with proper cleaning supplies or a vacuum, and therefore weren't able to keep it clean. Because of the beach, the floor was often very sandy.
I'm also not sure about the cleanliness of the bedsheets, pillows and mattress. My girlfriend suffers from a dust allergy. Her rashes got extremely bad after only one night. Even with as little time as possible spent in the apartment, her rashes were terrible, indicating that it wasn't very clean or the mattresses and pillows were too old.
It's worth noting that the room is right next to another stay for guests. There's a bench right in front of the door that allows smoking, so we often smelled smoke since it was right in front of our door. In front of the door there's also a place to hang clothes to dry, which we liked.
Positive was the response time of the host. She was quick to reply to us and sent someone over, even though she was on her own holiday and away from Mondello. When she came back she greeted us and seemed very friendly.
