This spacious and airily and modern apartment is in a good neighborhood in Messina, just off Corso Garibaldi, the major street of the town. The apartment, on the first floor is on a quiet street with free public parking. All the rooms in the apartment including the hallway were very spacious which might benefit people using mobility assisted equipment (though there are 5 stairs to climb from the front door to the door to the apartment.) What was a wonderful surprise was the spacious courtyard right off the kitchen where we were able to enjoy relaxing in the warm weather. The kitchen is fully furnished - fridge, dishwasher, oven, stove - all in new condition. The ‘master’ bedroom is very spacious with great closet space. The bathroom is huge, with a large shower that will play music and light up with different colored lighting! I was impressed to see the shower had a fold down seat which might be very helpful for people with mobility issues. Hot water in the shower! And the heating system worked well. The hosts met us when we arrived and provided lots of information about the apartment and were easy to reach.
