I stayed here with my sister and my 70 year old mother. We helped her get her bags up all the stairs on arrival and leaving, but other than that she did not struggle. It was well worth the climb to have the amazing view from the top balcony. Great to sit outside in the morning and drink coffee while watching the sunrise. Location was convenient to everything. We walked to the train station for our trips to Taormina and Siracusa. Location was quiet and safe. Would stay again.
