The location of the apartment is idyllic, perched just above the central corso of Taormina with breath-taking panoramic views. The apartment was clean and well equipped. The balcony and roof terrace are nice, but there is traffic noise. Rachele’s parking rules make parking at the apartment virtually impossible. The number and extent of regulations imposed by Rachele made us unable to relax, as did Rachele’s constant demands made both before and during our stay. Overall we felt that we were a burden to our host, who in reality made clear that she dislikes hosting.
