Silvana is truly a wonderful host. She picked us up from the city center to bring us to Casa Arenella, gave us local tips and was always very quick to reply to messages. The place is exactly as described and has a lot of charme and besides that is very clean. The location is in a sweet spot between the wonderful Mondello beach (10 min bus ride) and the city center of Palermo. Local beach in 5 minutes walking distance. Will always come back to Casa Arenella when in Sicily! Very much recommended.
