Sakiko's place was just like the pictures- great view and the room is clean and attractively furnished and she served us a delicious breakfast. She was also helpful with giving us advice on an Etna excursion. Our main concern was the distance of her place from the main tourist walking areas particularly on arriving with luggage. You need to walk for 20 min from the bus station and then up 3 flights of steep stairs (between 100-200 stairs) to get to the house and you would only know about the stairs after you had checked in. There is apparently a local bus that stops just past her house but again we only found out about this after we had checked in. If we were to visit again we would have booked a place closer to the bus station on the same level as the main town.
