The location is not so great. Yes, it is close to the old town center, but its proximity to the city prison (which seems to be functioning) is a bit odd. There were no restaurants or cafeterias within The room is on a dead-end street with abandoned houses. The room has almost no windows for natural light, the photos are misleading. The space is smaller than what I expected from the photos.
It's clean, but not spacious. The so called backyard from the description is just the end of the street with no grass and no flower pots.
The city in October also gave us a funky sense, it felt desolated and empty on a Friday evening, though it was a bit better on Saturday. Modica and Marzamemi are a lot better to visit even in the night.
Otherwise, the space is very chic and has personal touches. The hosts were very responsive and gave us updates about the drinkable tapped water.
