Elvira’s apartment is in a working class district about 20minutes walk into the main areas of interest. It was a good opportunity to meet the locals who were always up for a chat.
The apartment was a good size, but i think it’s important to mention the narrow stairs about (53) up to the apartment, quite difficult with cases.
Elvira’s son Andrea was very helpful and knowledgeable, my friend and I had a lovely trip to Mt Etna with him, stopping off in places a tour company wouldn’t normally go.
