This is a great little place in the centre of the city. The location is fantastic - easy to get to lots of different sights, the port, and the train/bus station.

Being in the city centre does mean it can be pretty noisy though. It was warm at night, which meant we had to open the doors onto the balcony which overlooked a busy and very noisy side street. There is in fact no air conditioning - not a big issue for us but a fan would have been nice. Admittedly, we could have enquired about this and didn't.

Aside from the above, the apartment has everything you could need.
Alberto is a very friendly and accommodating host, welcoming us with a glass of wine and inviting us to join with the other guests on a little tour of some typical Sicilian food spots.
