Marianna was very welcoming, showing us free parking we had not expected to encounter. The apt. in the Palazzo Astuto was staggeringly large. Two bedrooms were air conditioned, and an effective fan enhanced other areas. There is a small roof terrace, more fit for laundry than lingering, and the balcony over the main street of Noto as shown. The place was Sicilian clean, by which I mean exceptionally clean indeed. The kitchen was very well supplied, including cutting boards and (!) well cared for nonstick cookware. Marianna communicated effectively, despite latency introduced by AirBnB. Marianna received one text message I sent her five hours later. (Heads up, AirBnB!)
