Pros (+) We stayed in the apartment and was delighted with the terrace spanning the whole roof and the fun swing to read a book in. Everything you need for an easy stay.
Cons (-) Only issue was having a consistent fully flushing toilet.

Helen, Dec 2024
Pros (+) My review is of the apartment only. Location was great, close to Borsellino bus station, and 5 mins walk to main square. Bed was low, but comfy. Surprised to have daily cleaning service provided too. View from the terrace of Etna was superb and sea in other direction. Heating in living space was great, kitchen was freezing though. Was able to leave luggage after we checked out, but in reception (u...
Cons (-) Sadly a much longer list. Tbe photos are out of date, there is no swing on the roof terrace, the lights mostly don't work up there either and the glass table was dangerously rusty in places. The bedroom has a single bed of sorts, but not actual chairs, just the dining table ones and a swing chair. There is no view from any of the high-level windows but the roof windows do open if you stand on the ...

Henriette, Nov 2024
Pros (+) Perfect location
Cons (-) Wasn’t aware about the apartment is on the 3rd floor. (Good exercise though 😂) Bathroom and shower is very small/narrow needs some serious update. I hate to mention that because all the 3 properties we were renting in Sicily and south part of Italy had bidet. For me it’s unnecessary just taking more space. Our last day/night we couldn’t sleep because a bunch of drunk guys were extremely loud, mus...

Pros (+) -
Cons (-) I booked a stay here with my sister, hoping for a pleasant experience based on the photos and description. Unfortunately, our stay turned out to be quite the opposite, and we ended up leaving in the middle of the night. First, the pictures online were misleading. The place was much more run-down than it appeared, and although our room had a private toilet, it was located down a small corridor outs...

Sheri, Oct 2024
Pros (+) The room was clean and spacious. Alessandro was warm, friendly and easygoing. I felt safe and relaxed. The location was very close to the Giardino Pacini (with the wonderful open-air market) and the Basilica Cattedrale.
Cons (-) I wish I had more clear instructions … I’m not a very saavy traveler, and I didn’t know how to use the air conditioner, how to turn on the stairwell lights, or how to access breakfast. This place would have been perfect for me when I was younger (like 30 years ago) and was more out-going … I would simply have asked if I didn’t understand something! 😂
