Antonio was a great host. We communicated well and he met us on arrival. He hopped in the car and showed us where to park. The apartment was perfect for us (2 couples). The town itself was a bit slow, as the tourist season has clearly ended. Some things were closed, etc. overall it was great for a stopover. Acireale is a good base to explore south Etna. Would recommend Antonio's place for those thinking of hitting this little town.
