Mauro is the nicest man in the world!!! He is our favorite host so far. We chatted with him for like an hour. He gave us a map as well as recommendations for everything. The location is literally PERFECT. There is nowhere else you'd rather be. It's right on the pedestrian-only street. The only downside is no wifi .. However the shop downstairs has wifi that we connected to. But once they close for the night (around 2300) and reopen (0930) or so << there will be no wifi (and you need to ask them the password). But anyways, I would stay there again. Palermo is filled with warm people and we loved it.
