When we arrived, Alberto greeted us warmly and showed us around the apartment, clearly telling us where everything was we might need and the house rules. He is great fun, and made us feel very at home immediately. He gave us a map and marked out all the places we should visit, as well as suggesting a good cheap bar to drink at and a cheap restaurant for dinner. It was so helpful as we had never been to Palermo and hadn't done much research! We had a great day, and loved the city. The apartment is a in a great location and easy to find. Our room had a balcony and air conditioning which was very welcome! It was quiet and private, and there was a clean shared bathroom and kitchen. And two lovely dogs! Alberto's recommendations were perfect and we had a brilliant time (getting a bit too drunk) at the local bar! He was an excellent host and told us everything we needed to know. The apartment was clean, cheap and perfectly placed and we would stay there again. Thank you Alberto!
