Massimo met us as planned and was very welcoming, offering freshly made cake for breakfast. He was extremely helpful and had us follow his car to guide us out of the city to the Villa Casale ruins nearby. He made sure everything was perfect for our brief stay.

The house was well situated, close to the duomo with easy parking nearby. It contained everything necessary for a nice visit to the city. There was a nice kitchen upstairs and a bathroom with a great shower with plenty of hot water. The bed was fabulous.

As a good-by gift, they gave us a DVD with the best places in Sicily to visit. They are very thoughtful and I wish I was able to stay longer.
