We are planning a 10 day trip to Sicily and have selected specific locations with attractions that we'd like to see. Locations include: Palermo, Trapani, Catania, Taorina, and possibly Agrigento. Can anyone suggestion lodging in these areas that is reasonable, clean, preferably with a breakfast and free parking that is not within an inner city? We will have a rental car. KS

?- I assume you'll get your rental car as you leave Palermo and drop it
off as you arrive in Catania? There are rental places right in downtown Palermo so you don't need to backtrack to the airport.
- If you eliminate Agrigento, you really don't need a car at all.
? - Agrigento, I assume, is primarily for the Greek temple complex so staying closer to the park makes sense?
? - 10 days means how many nights?
It's hard for me to recommend the places I have stayed at because I just don't know how they'd stack up to what you like.
I generally just search booking.com and check other google reviews. Booking will give you non-traditional lodging options but you can choose to filter those if you choose.
With that caveat, here's where I have stayed and liked for various reasons:
Palermo-Pagano Home Guesthouse (no breakfast but a great location and comfortable, clean largish rooms.
Palermo-Principe di Castelnuovo Historical Suites - (no breakfast but great location. Suite of rooms, lots of character)
Agrigento-B&B Villa San Marco - (Agriturismo-ish family compound overlooking the temples. Great breakfast, friendly family, access is via a low maintenance road so be a low clearance, compact car might not work)
