Salvatore and his daughter welcomed us to the apartment. They were very friendly and responsive to requests. The apartment is central and feels safe and secure. Convenient for airport and train/bus station. There was some noise at night from a local club, mostly at weekends, but hey-this is Sicily! You will get noise in a city centre, and the double glazing and shutters cut it down so not too bad. Wi-fi connection was excellent, enabling us to watch UKTV on our computer, and browse the web without problems. Kitchen and bathroom small but adequate. Lounge spacious with 3 sofas. Excellent base and good value for money.
